My Catholic Perspective

by @alimariehere
Season 1

Great Suffering Requires Great Humility

Jesus experienced extreme suffering yet never belittles or negates our own. How can He do this? Or even more, how can we learn to do this like Him? www.alimariehere.com Purchase your copy of Aquinas’s Lenten Meditations here: https://sophiainstitute.com/product/aquinass-lenten-meditations/ref/73/?attribute_pa_format=paperback&campaign=Lent2024

Temptations will ALWAYS Exist

I misspoke: Lucifer fell BEFORE God created the earth, so temptation has existed longer than humanity itself! We will continue to be tempted in Heaven which is why we have to learn how to guard and protect ourselves against temptations NOW.

Faith is Not Passive

What seeds are you allowing to be planted in your heart? Are you digging out the weeds surrounding the good plants taking root? Are you seeking the Word of God to be the source and summit of your livelihood?

Our Crown is one of Thorns

Listen to how Jesus wants to welcome us into His Kingdom, remove the thorns of our sins, heal the wounds they left, and, finally, replace the crown with one of beauty and peace. Seek and you will find.

Fasting as a Direct Source to Chastity & Love

Natural Fasting vs. Ecclesiastical Fasting... Delayed gratification... Growing in CHASTITY by fasting? It's never too late to open your heart to what it may be that the Lord is calling you to give up this season.

Death & The Composition of the Soul

Why do we have an intrinsic desire to live forever? If we don't have eternal souls, where does that longing come from? What makes up a soul anyway?
