I so often talked with each of you about saying your prayers at night as we have so much to be thankful for in so many areas. Talk to God during the day as a friend where you bring so many of your problems to Him. As you make both big and small decisions ask Him for guidance on the correct course of action. This will provide a lot of comfort to you.
Helping the less fortunate is something we must do during our life. I love the Catholic Faith as a primary mission is meeting the needs of these people. Every act of kindness you do for the unfortunate is an act of kindness toward God. When you look at these forgotten people you can see God. Think about this when you see the poor, dirty, and sad individuals; you will see God. It takes some effort at times, but make sure you find ways to help the less fortunate. Life lesson: Make time for prayer and helping the less fortunate.
As Delanie’s priest mentioned last week both of the things above are important in our Christian life. However do not forget the importance of demonstrating love and kindness toward all your family members and friends. It does not make sense to pray and help the less fortunate and then act with a choleric and petulant attitude toward the people you love. So often people can be mean towards the people they truly love. What a sad way to live our life. Go out of your way to help Mom with chores and any challenges she faces each day. Encourage each other to do their best each day and strive for their goals. Demonstrate the love and care that you have for each other on a daily basis and catch yourself whenever you are about to say anything mean or inappropriate to them. Operate in this same way with your friends too. Life Lesson: Encourage love and stay positive with family and friends.
