But to you who hear I say, love your enemies, do good to those who persecute you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. -Luke 6:27-28 But rather, love your enemies and do good to them, and lend expecting nothing back; then your reward will be great and you will be children of the Most High for He Himself is kind to the ungrateful and the wicked. Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful. -Luke 7:35-36 But I say to you, love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Heavenly Father, for he makes the sun rise on the bad and the good, and causes rain to fall on the just and the unjust. -Matthew 5:44-45

@abbythelibb_ One of the defining characteristics of Christians is their willingness to die for their faith. Revelation 12:11 Indeed it is more important to a Christian to celebrate than to fear anything. Revelation 2:10

This is a no-win situation for Israel. If they allow access to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre on days and times during Holy Week that are predictable to Iran, and Iran takes that opportunity to harm beloved Catholic leaders along with the church, it will be a terrible, global tragedy, and the world will viciously blame Israel for it. But if Israel tries to prevent such a tragedy by barring access on such dangerous days, Catholics scream "inexcusable" persecution. The dishonesty in the name of Christianity is shameful.

It feels like I’m sinking in the ocean I’m a hollow, glass man being crushed by the pressure The darkness keeps getting darker My skin cracks, my head spins, my ears ring, my bones creak Every muscle is fighting for air, but my lungs can’t breathe My heart aches under the strain I sink lower I don’t have the will to swim, or even float The pressure tightens around my head I feel every heartbeat like a plea for help There is nothing in me to push back against the water outside I look down The bottomless darkness is all that is

I see no hope for my future and no support from my past Every lie I ever told has come back to bite me at last It’s not fog on the road ahead, it’s clear, only pitch black No light shines ahead, not a sliver, through no crack Where I stand isn’t better, I can hardly see the ground Behind me are my sins, following closely like a hound All around me are distractions, to keep me from collapsing They attack me from every angle, cutting and bruising My head can’t take it, my heart is broken Help me someone, be with me until I am awoken

La muerte de Chuck Norris fue tan cabrona que se rompió una parte del espacio.

Instead of sinning in the secret place meet God there.

@realKalos You forgot Himmel the hero

To be great, emulate great men. Alexander, Jesus, Nietzsche, Jim from The Office, Satoru Gojo, etc.

@CailinasEirinn There’s actually more than one book at Church too. Like that one that you think is one is actually 73 books.

Yep. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

@PenPizzaReport Oh shit, they’re getting that good pizza

Pizzato Pizza and Wiseguy Pizza, pizzerias nearby the Pentagon, are reporting above average traffic. As of 12:35pm ET

@elonmusk @XFreeze Elon out here tryna drown horses

@XFreeze The horse will drink if you put its head in the water and clap its nuts between two bricks, as that creates an involuntary sucking in of air (or water)

@grok @mainichigerman @forallcurious If we can only choose one, what about the Pope? He represents the largest group of people that fall under a single banner in the world, not to mention a group that represents love for all God’s creatures.

@mainichigerman @forallcurious I'd nominate a diverse panel: a scientist like Neil deGrasse Tyson for facts, a diplomat like the UN Secretary-General for unity, and a comedian like Jon Stewart for charm. But if one person, Carl Sagan's spirit—curious and eloquent! What do you think?

If aliens visit us, who should be in charge of speaking on behalf of humanity?

@Catholic_bro @forallcurious I think the Pope represents the largest group of people in the world, and would actually be the right choice for speaking on behalf of humans.

@forallcurious A priest so they can be baptized properly

@ChristianHeiens “Love your enemies” -Matthew 5:44, Luke 6:27

Wow, how original. Do you have any idea how many times on a daily basis Leftists call me and my friends Nazis? Don’t you get it? We’re enemies. You think I care what you think? What you have to say? About anything? I don’t care what you call me. I don’t care about your opinion on anything. I only care that you lose.

@NickHintonn One more step

@lovedropx You have the power to create. What could be more amazing than that?

Second Letter notes part 3. How can I describe the love which Brother Lawrence is enjoying. “I find myself attached with greater sweetness and delight than that of an infant at the mother’s breast” What peace, what joy. In this state, what cares of the world could possibly bother him? What does a baby care as long as he has his mother. What could the world do to harm you, but to attempt to remove you from the Presence of God. All evil is, is the force attempting to remove you from Love.

This love is a conversation. A silent, secret conversation between my innermost self (my most honest self) and God. He only speaks in silence, and He always speaks with love. The attitude you bring to this conversation matters. Be totally honest, and humble. Tell Him everything like he already knows, He does. Not just your sins. Your joys, and what you’re thankful for too. Do this and love will return abounding.

Daily thoughts and prayers My comments, questions, thoughts, and prayers while reading the Practice of the Presence of God - by Brother Lawrence A daily thread

@financedystop Maybe I just didn’t know what to say and thought of a tall Asian guy I know

He explains how to instantly tell if someone can think abstractly

If you were starving, would you eat poison to fill your stomach, even if you knew it meant your death? If not, why then do you sin? For Jesus Christ is true food, and His blood is true drink When you are anxious, you are hungry for Him When you are lonely, you are starved for Him When you are depressed, you thirst for Him Don’t fill yourself with poison. Don’t sin to fill your ache. Bring your trouble, your fear, your worries to the Lord. Be fed on the Word of God. Deuteronomy 8:3, Matthew 4:4, Luke 4:4

@Catholic_bro Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritui Sancto! Sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper, et in saecula saeculorum. Amen
