But before all things have a constant mutual charity among yourselves: for charity covereth a multitude of sins -1 peter 4:8






The Pope never rejected the miraculous nature of the feeding of the 5,000 but you know what? It actually is a far greater display of divine power for the grace of God to draw supernatural charity from the obediential potency of the soul than it is to multiply bread or fish




This has been my exact and consistent experience. I’ve met many Catholics who are now protestant, and vice versa. But what’s notable isn’t the numbers: it’s the quality. Invariably, whenever I inquire into the knowledge these ex-Catholics had about the Catholic Faith, it is shockingly bad, and most of them rarely even took the time to learn what the Church actually taught in any serious way. On the other hand, I’ve met and known of many protestant converts who were deeply formed in their faith, took it seriously, were constantly diving deep, and in that process discovered they had to become Catholic, for that was the only way all the true things they learned as a protestant could find fulfillment.










From 33AD till 590AD, Catholics were receiving the Holy Eucharists on their hands. Jesus did not change. From Approx 590AD, church demanded everyone to start receiving Him directly on the tongue for deeper reverence. Jesus did not change. If the church decides to dualize the process (Tongue and hand) today, Jesus still will not change. I'm team Tongue tho.






My mom hasn't replied to me at all or apologized to me, and I think none of my family will change anytime soon. So please pray for me to be able to forgive her, not harbor hatred towards her & make confessions with true & perfect contrition, and not be angry anymore. I want to experience less sadness and anxiety when thinking about and interacting with my family. But perhaps it is inevitable with them. I will call my mom probably if she doesn’t respond, but i doubt that will go well. Maybe pray it does go well.
