'We Choose Our Rivals' (Fr. Mike's Homily) #sundayhomily

We choose our rivals.

We are all confronted with the temptation towards resentment, when we see the blessings or gifts that others have. This temptation towards envy can be overcome when we choose to receive the gifts we’ve been given with gratitude, and choose to rejoice in the gift of others.

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

I find myself always in want of a relationship I see everyone else in my life having, but I forget that God has given my the friends and time to myself as a blessing to learn and grow so that in His timing, I might be blessed later with someone

😊 thank you lord! i know youtube doesnt just throw these in my feed, but here ive been talking to people about my journey which has somewhat come to a stop for a while now, i know hes there, i know hears me. He answers my prayers, but i havent been able to hear him, its been pretty quite. And here he sends me messages. Ive slacked and fell back into wallowing and hes still there waiting for me to come back. Thats one thing i find most amazing by God, his eternal love for us! Even when we fall hes there to help us back up. I love God! Thank you.

So, when I do my prayers; I have my Rosary Cross marked; and it's loved specially... with an action word written; - that it will come to pass. That means a lot; and has more weight; just remember that. This is a trial and tribulation that will pass. We have to say it by faith.
