Catholicism, politics, pop culture and other happenings in Dallas, TX. It's what I love and what we should all try and know about.

🧵🪡 Marilyn Monroe was a real person. Created in the image of God, just like you and I. She was beautiful, talented, and wanted nothing more in life than to be a mother. I do not believe she ever had an abortion, despite what Netflix tells you. However.

Pray for every veteran you know. Be thankful for them. Let’s be a society that helps. – at Dallas, TX
Men can be close—very close, like brothers, and even closer than brothers. Deep down, all men long for this brotherhood. It's because we need each other. We need other men who get it. We were not meant to fight this fight alone.

Our greatest danger is not our sins, but our indifference. We must be in love with God. It is not so much to change what we are doing, but our intention, our motive. It is not sufficient that we refrain from insulting a person. We must love.” - Dorothy Day

Satan loves drama. He creates whirlwinds of fear & tension to keep our eyes on him & away from God. But Jesus cuts through this empty show with simple words: “Be quiet!” (Lk 4) Don’t let Satan’s dramatic claims disturb you. Seek God’s peace & keep your gaze on Him.

A homeless man in Slabtown has a sign that reads “please don’t be hurtful. I don’t know where else I belong.” He says it’s hardest when “I say hello to someone and they look at me like I murdered their dog.”

Said to me today… “Sister, if it starts to look more like a political arena than a ministry of Jesus Christ then that’s when I’m out.”

We ask the Lord for many things, but how often do we forget to ask him for what is most important and what he desires most to give us: the Holy Spirit, the power to love. Indeed, without love, what can we offer to the world?

Let us invoke the Holy Spirit each day, so that He can remind us to make God’s gaze upon us our starting point, to make decisions by listening to His voice, and to journey together as Church, docile to Him and open to the world. #Pentecost
