'Something Other Than God' + (Fr. Mike's Homily) #shorts

We get what we've chosen.

The ending of a story reveals what kind of story it is. Regardless of how we start and how we proceed, we can choose to have a tragic story...or we can choose to have a love story. The determining factor is not the amount of sorrow or loss in our lives, but whether we choose God...or choose something other than God.

Finally, we also ask you to continue supporting your local parishes. Thank you and God bless you!

All I want to do is God's Will for my life. Sometimes that is so hard to determine.

I needed this… I don’t know why it seems so difficult to go to church every Sunday. Every day I say I need to and I want to…then Sunday comes and I don’t feel like it and I know it’s a mortal sin and I feel horrible about it all week. It’s a viscous cycle that I keep allowing to happen. I also keep having dreams of fighting demons. Literal demons frequently. I’m a new convert as of this past Easter. I’m just struggling internally. It should be so easy just to go but it isn’t and when I go I focus on things I shouldn’t be like feelings of inadequacy. I just feel like I’m trying to fight something within myself. Anyways I keep praying every night asking God to strengthen me and to help me be Holy.

This is really special, each time we choose to do 'our own thing' apart from God, it has left us feeling empty and alone. How great of a God that we serve that He would give us the choice to follow Him and be in His presence!
