@Weemus0417 @CyrusAfterHours @RosaryQuotes123 1, you don’t know the person with the camera didn’t ask for permission.

NEW: "The Blind Side" actor Quinton Aaron, who played Michael Oher, is on life support, according to TMZ.
The 41-year-old has been in the hospital for four days after collapsing at his home, his wife says.
Aaron's wife, Margarita, told the outlet that her husband woke up feeling sore. As the days went by, he started getting pain in his neck and back, and eventually lost feeling in his legs.
Margarita says her husband has a blood infection, and doctors are still running tests. She says he is now partially breathing on his own.
"He opened his eyes today and gave a thumbs up," she told the outlet.
"He's showing a lot of improvement. We all have faith in God that he will walk out of here fully recovered."
Praying for a full recovery.

WHEN YOU VISIT A PRIEST, PLEASE REMEMBER...🇻🇦
That a priest isn't married, nor will he have a family of his own. No wife, no children. His family is his parishioners. He is a spiritual father in faith to the community he serves. His future is in celebrating the Eucharist at mass every day, listening to confessions, anointing the sick, serving those who come to him for help.
A priest may serve a parish only for a minimum of five to seven years. After that he may be transfered to another parish or assigned a different role in the Church. He relies on his team of volunteers, staff and the lay faithful. Don't expect him to be there all the time for you.
When you give money to the Church, you may be surprised to know that the money isn't for him because no priest earns a fixed salary. They receive a stipend to meet their basic expenses of food, clothing and travel. They save every penny to go for a vacation and much of the money is gifted by friends, relatives and well wishers as they don't get paid leave like the rest of us who work. While we work for a fixed amount of hours with two days off a week , priests are expected to be on stand by 24/7. So don't be angry if they don't respond to you when you need them. They are humans as well with the same frailty as us.
If you hear anyone speaking badly about a particular priest, please correct that person and don't engage in idle gossip without knowing the facts. Remember that they are alone and at times would need company. Pay attention to their emotional, physical and mental needs. Accompany them if needed or offer a helping hand or even a lift.
It's not easy to go out alone at 2 or 3 in the morning especially in dangerous neighborhoods for counseling or even anointing someone on their death bed. If someone comes to them at such an hour for help, they have to get up from their deep sleep and still be expected to celebrate Mass in the morning. Who is there for them when they are ill or have emergencies in the middle of the night? Yet they are required to perform their duties because if not them, who?
Remember their birthdays, ordination anniversaries and important events in their lives. Celebrate with them, cry with them. Offer a shoulder to lean on. If they fall, don't judge or criticize. Lift them up and help them on their journey in life. Don't be offended if they don't live up to your expectations. No priest is perfect.
So take care of your priests, remember the ones who baptized, confirmed, married and anointed you. The ones who offer masses for your intentions and pray for you. May God bless our priests in Jesus name, our eternal High Priest. Amen.

@TexasHookem22 @on3 Little brother accusing others of trying to get an unfair advantage? Sorry your little stadium isn’t loud, but then again it’s full of pussies. No noise gets piped in, sip. That’s all the 12th man. Cry more.

NEW: Nick Saban believes Texas A&M pipes in noise at Kyle Field👀
“I did more complaining to the SEC office—it was more than complaining that I don’t really want to say on this show—about this is the noisiest place. Plus, they pipe in noise... You can’t hear yourself think when you’re playing out there.”

@SaintGuwop @FBGreatMoments Maybe first on the football field. But who did it best? Not Amon-ra. And I’m a Lions fan

@ACompromised @fr_petros No sir, it was just a question. Have you read the Old Testament as a historical fact document. As a Muslim, I understand you don’t want to believe what’s written, but the Jews of the Old Testament kept flawless records. It’s the oldest historical knowledge base available.

@TexasKnight5 @fr_petros I know what you will say next bit the OT and NT contradict each other in so many ways
