My friends,
As most of you know, I am moving next week to start a new job in Washington DC. I have decided that now is a good time for me to take some time off from CF. I do not know what awaits me after next week so I do not know when I shall be back.
I would like to thank all of you for helping me grow in my faith and Love of the Lord over these last six months and for giving me something to do as I sat around the house doing nothing.
Lastly, I live you with a few pieces of advice to consider this lent.
May the Peace of the Lord be with you all.
Your brother in Christ
Aaron
As most of you know, I am moving next week to start a new job in Washington DC. I have decided that now is a good time for me to take some time off from CF. I do not know what awaits me after next week so I do not know when I shall be back.
I would like to thank all of you for helping me grow in my faith and Love of the Lord over these last six months and for giving me something to do as I sat around the house doing nothing.
Lastly, I live you with a few pieces of advice to consider this lent.
- Advice 1. Ask your self, do I seek that God does my will, or do I seek to do his?
Ponder these three lines of scripture and the effect they have on our salvation:
Luke 1:38
And Mary said: Behold the handmaid of the Lord: be it done to me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her
Matthew 6:9-10
9 Thus therefore shall you pray: Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name
10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Luke 22:42
42 Saying: Father, if thou wilt, remove this chalice from me: but yet not my will, but thine be done.
Think about make a request such as the following: Take everything I am and have and replace it with you, Jesus, so that everybody who sees me knows you and loves you
- Advice 2: Remember no matter how bad things seem, the darkest day of man kind is behind us. On that day even the sun refused to look upon us and our crimes. For on that day we crucified the Son of God. But the Lord has rising and we should not be afraid for he tells us as the master is prosecuted so shall be the servants. Worry not about the end of times , for today maybe your last. Do not grow angry when attacked for through it you shall grow in faith. Trust in Divine Mercy and Will. The Lord is there to help you carry your cross.
- Advice 3: Find a copy of Seven Words of Jesus and Mary by Bishop Sheen and Read it.
- Advice 4: Rejoice and be glad
- Advice 5: You knew it was comeing .. ADORATION !
May the Peace of the Lord be with you all.
