food for thought

Father Joseph at the 1030 mass at Good Shepherd made a good point during his sermon. He said (and im paraphrasing): "Most people, when they do something like dieting, get into a relationship, or pray for something for example, expect results the next day or almost immediately. Life isn't like that, God isn't like that. You need to be patient, you need to be persistant, and you need to have faith. You can't expect to be a better person overnight" He also said that, "With God, it doesn't matter how you pray, just as long as you do pray and that you have faith in him."


I've always thought those were great ways to live by. I can only hope that with each day, I do become a better person than the day before and that in some way I can help others to be better people as well because God knows, I'm not perfect by any means.

Thanks for stopping by.
