The Lord our Father loves each and every one of us very much! Even if we stray from Him, He wants us to come running back to Him with open arms, hearts, and minds. Those around us may push and spit on us, but what does it matter when Christ is for us? Try to shift the focus from them, to yourself, and then from "me to He". Keeping our eyes focused on God is the only way to make it and persevere until the end. For it does no good to reach the prize if it is thrown away at the last minute! We must persevere until the end! Remember, the road less travelled will be narrow and rocky and maybe not as pretty, but the destination is so much sweeter, Paradise!
It can be compared to being up very high and not looking down, if we look down we become scared. So it is the same in the spiritual life and not dwelling on hurts or injuries caused by others, feel the pain, forgive, and move on. Sometimes the first step in forgiving may be wanting to forgive. The actual forgiveness may come later, but stay with our Lord, our Father, our Lover, our Friend. He knows what will happen to you everyday of your life, and He's still interested to see what happens as if He's watching you for the first time! How awesome!
Pray, Pray, Pray!
Prayer is Hand to Hand combat!
"The best way to fight the devil is by staying close to Christ in Prayer."
"The weapons of our warfare are not of this world, but mighty through God."
2 Col 10:4
For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, Have Mercy on us and on the Whole World!
Jesus, Mary, we love You, Save Souls!
Go with Christ,
Erin
