Encouragement in Light of Today’s Political Situation

Dear Friends,
Today I received the graphic below from a friend. It speaks a word of encouragement and exhortation to us in light of today’s political situation. I read it on the air during our radio broadcast, Women of Grace Live, heard at 11AM ET VIA EWTN. A caller asked me to post it, so here it is. May these words bolster your faith in our God for Whom nothing is impossible,
Blessings and joy in Jesus,
Johnnette

Joyce Meyer’s Feel Good Religion

MH writes: “I have a very good friend that absolutely adores Joyce Myers.  Am I right to say she’s another prosperity gospel teacher?  I’ve heard some of her talks before, and the only thing I can discern, is that as a Protestant, she interprets Scripture differently from us Catholics, which I know is to be expected.  She speaks on topics that one could easily relate to; such as, how it’s wrong to talk about others behind their back.   Is it okay to listen to her, if I remember that her interpretation of scripture is wrong? Or is there more I should know so as to not listen to her?”

A thousand hells

November 9
“The torments of a thousand hells are nothing in comparison to the anguish of being banished from everlasting bliss and the vision of God.”
-St. John Chrysostom
For Reflection:
The chief misery of hell is being excluded from the beatific vision for all eternity. What a pity it would be for us if this were our end. Ask God for the grace today to be counted as one of the elect who will enjoy His presence for all eternity.

Our days are numbered

November 8
“Our days may come to seventy years, or eighty, if our strength endures;
yet the best of them are but trouble and sorrow, for they quickly pass,
and we fly away.”
-Psalm 90:10
For Reflection:
Many saints have promoted the practice of regularly reflecting upon one’s own mortality. How does the reality of the shortness of life encourage you to live each day with purpose?

Asyra Machines Can’t Diagnose Anything

KC writes: “I was just seen by a naturopath at a holistic store and she used the Asyra machine. She told me that this machine was approved by the FDA in detecting illnesses. She said that this machine has been used since the 1970’s and is recognized by licensed doctors in Europe. Is this information correct? Finding many conflicting reports online.”

Where is your sting

November 5
 “Behold, I tell you a mystery. We shall not all fall asleep, but we will all be changed, in an instant, in the blink of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised incorruptible,
and we shall be changed…
Death is swallowed up in victory.
Where, O death, is your victory?
Where, O death, is your sting?”
-1 Corinthians 15: 51, 52, 55
For Reflection:
Death comes to us all, but we have the promise of the resurrection. As Christians, the overriding priority of our lives should be eternity with God, heaven, both for ourselves and as many souls as we can bring with us.
Is this the focus of your life and if not, what needs to change?
