It hardly seems possible that we Baby Boomers could have such a gloriously exciting month ahead of us, in the midst of these brutal economic times. There’s always the option of celebrating Christmas daily, but few of us know how. Meanwhile, we can carve out this December as perhaps the greatest December ever. What’s stopping us? Rejoice? Or, rejoice!
Do you have a routine prayer you’ve created and say everyday with your Family?
What if you did? Is there something stopping you?
We pray for Peace in our Soul, Joy in our Spirit, and Love in our Hearts. For all our Family, all our friends, and especially all those people less fortunate.
What does that mean exactly? Growing up Luthern, in a small Pennsylvania town, there weren’t many Catholics. In fact, I don’t recall knowing what a Catholic was until college.
Well, life comes full circle and here I am, a devoted Catholic for over a decade. There are something like 15,000 members of our Holy Family congregation. All walks of like.
One of them, I see occasionally at Gold’s Gym. We recently had a nice conversation with these highlights:
Draw nearer to God and God will draw nearer to you. James 4:8.
True love doesnt force anything.
Greed, sloth, doubt, hypocracy – the four points in the circle surrounding the four squares.
Pay, pray and obey Catholic. This is how my friend (60-something) described himself.
God does not want good men in heaven, he wants Saints.
Gotta go. Time to work on praying, obeying, paying and demonstrating.
