Short copy job completed.

Today we remember the birthday of Doug Bachman. May he rest in peace.

Gas prices keep raising. Groceries do too. If you factor in the cost of living today and what you receive as income you are making less than people did back in the 80’s. The dollars in your pocket are worth less than they were in the ’80’s. Your box of breakfast cereal costs more and contains less. Your car costs more and contains less. We’ve been duped into thinking we are ahead when in fact, we are way behind; financially, materially, and spiritually… you can change that by using critical thinking. By thinking it thru instead of swallowing all the garbage given to you.

Find ways to step out in faith today. Take the risk and share your faith. Ask the Holy Spirit for help.

Know you are prayed for.

In the margins…Often we attach ourselves—and our ability to be happy—on a desired outcome, only to find ourselves disappointed when that outcome doesn’t happen. Learn how you can let go and start living from a place of happiness.

Fr H reminded me this morning of what St Alphonsus said…“Prayer is, beyond a doubt, the most powerful weapon the Lord gave us to conquer evil…but we must really put ourselves into the prayer, it is not enough to just say the words, it must come from the heart. And also prayer needs to be continuous, we must pray no matter what kind of situation we find ourselves in; the warfare we are engaged in is ongoing, so our prayer must be on-going also.”

Interesting article… https://www.betterup.com/blog/how-to-find-yourself I smile at the “finding yourself” statement back in the day that was the go-to for rebellion. I found this to be something to ponder.

Looks like snow on the ground will be short-lived. Rain is to come in sometime overnight, and today’s temps are to reach the 50s. Gotta love Mother Nature.

Life is a gift. It comes from God. If you have been searching for something that will fill that hole in your heart/head I must tell you that particular spot can only be filled with Christ. If Christ is not there no matter what you do, what you achieve, how much you have, and how successful you are…will not fill it. You will always have that empty spot and thought “Is this all there is?”. That empty spot can be filled with all sorts of good and bad things, but unless you put Christ in it you will feel some sort of emptiness, loss, and unfulfillment. Trust me on this.

I seem to have lost some phone #s. Hate it when that happens. Probably has something to do with getting rid of FB. Hope you all have a great day.

Know you are prayed for.
