Rooted in Love

Rooted in Love

There's always one thing that Jesus tells me before telling me anything else, "I love you." Jesus didn't say, "Alright. These are the conditions in which you must meet before I love you." And then name off a list of conditions. There is no doubt in this world, or in the next, that Jesus loves you.

Accept Stones

Accept Stones

In my introduction page I say right away that I am selfish, a little mean and a little rude, stubborn, and conceited. I start with that to let you know to beware of those when you meet me or read my blog posts. That's the way the evil one gets to me because he thrives off my weaknesses.

Life with Jesus

Life with Jesus

Life with Jesus is an amazing and incredible journey. There's purpose in everything and He is miraculously simple in revealing His love to me. Nothing is ever wasted or unwanted. It's myself that chooses to think that He will never love me, or that He will punish me, when I do something wrong. God is love and mercy.

First, you pray!

First, you pray!

I think it's really crazy how God gives. God is very generous, so when you ask for something you need to be prepared for something generous! Every day I pray to use the gifts that He has given me to help others, to help my brothers and sisters, to build the body of His Church, to keep His body moving!

Jesus never fails

Jesus never fails

I hope you know that it is love that draws us to Jesus. It is love that we seek in Him, through Him, and with Him. A relationship with Jesus is like a relationship with anybody in this world, except Jesus will never hurt us or leave us; and His love only gets stronger, but we do have to talk to Him and trust Him. We are never scared into loving Jesus.

Seek Jesus

Seek Jesus

My little foster brother was cutting a paper at the kitchen table, then he said, "I make Jesus really super happy." I asked, "How?" He said, "Wait. I'll show you." Then he finished cutting his paper and gave it to me. He drew Jesus on the cross with a smile on His face. My little brother said Jesus was dead but he made Him happy.

Communicate with God

Communicate with God

A few mornings ago I was talking with God and I said, "I need to tell you how I feel. I need to empty myself of all that I feel right now. I want You to know every ounce of feeling that I have in me right now." That felt really good!

Love and Mercy

Love and Mercy

Eucharist so many times with no real understanding of what was going on, and when God did reveal some understanding, then I cried and the only thing I could think of was, "Jesus loves me. Jesus forgives me."

Made for Heaven

Made for Heaven

I had no idea what I was getting into when I walked into the Catholic Church. Since living my Catholic faith, I've been mocked, talked about, and I've faced people that can state every way the Church doesn't work for them, in a matter of seconds, and with hate!

Light For Others

Light For Others

We all have this amazing relationship waiting for us to acknowledge. A relationship that defines the exact person we are created to be, to be known, and to be loved. We're always loved regardless, even without acknowledging this relationship, but when we do acknowledge it, the love is magnified beyond what we could ever dream of, or have imagined.

Year of Marian Consecration

Year of Marian Consecration

I will be starting my 33 day retreat and will be following the "33 Days to Morning Glory - A Do-It-Yourself Retreat In Preparation for Marian Consecration." It's the same book that I've followed the first time. I've lived almost a whole year of consecration to Jesus through Mary, and I was consecrated to Jesus through Mary on the feast day of Our Lady of Lourdes, February 11th, 2014.

My Keys

My Keys

I am going to write about a few keys that I have gained throughout living my Catholic faith. These keys are still major points in living my Catholic faith, and still continue to help in shaping me as a child of God. In studying and praying, these keys have helped me in healing, forgiving, and loving, all with pure intentions. From the very first moment, I realized that I spoke and God answered.

Sow Love

Sow Love

I see grace when a person shows their dislike of me and my beliefs, because it's an opportunity for spiritual growth. I don't encourage anybody to dislike me, I hope not, but I do see it as an opportunity of spiritual growth. It takes humility and self control to hold your tongue when others speak unkindly to you or of you.

My Mistaken Identity

My Mistaken Identity

I was in a case of mistaken identity. I was desperately trying to "find myself" and would do what everyone else was doing. I thought I had to go along with what my friends were doing and act in the way that was like them.
