@JoeBiden

My advice to Joe Biden is (1) give an all inclusive speech at the Democratic Convention, (2) do no gaffs, (3) let the Lincoln Project do their job, and (4) follow Napoleon’s advice,
Never Interfere With an Enemy While He’s in the Process of Destroying Himself.

Like the Samaritan woman at the well, we are called by God to tell the truth about our lives. What are we up to? What do we truly believe.

Humans are hard wired to the Divine with yearnings that will calm only in relation to God. "..My heart is restless until it rests in you."

[Fr. Bill Moisant @FrBillM]

Jesus says that, if we make God center of our lives, then God will care for us as he does the birds in the air & the flowers of the fields.

[Fr. Bill Moisant @FrBillM]

Jesus commands us to love our enemies (Mt.5:44)."Love" in this instance is not a feeling(affection) but an action word(respect, compassion).

[Fr. Bill Moisant @FrBillM]

Being a Christian is about making real choices between life & death, good & evil, light & darkness. Make your choice. Say yes to the Lord!

[Fr. Bill Moisant @FrBillM]

In the Beatitudes (Mt 5:1-12), Jesus gives us a description of his disciple. In calling us to follow him means that we are to be like him.

Christmas is the season of self-giving which reflects God the Father's gift of his Son, Jesus, the Incarnate Word, who showed us real love.

[Fr. Bill Moisant @FrBillM]

Mary and Joseph agreed to God's plan with no idea what it meant. Hopefully, we will have the same level of courage and faith in our lives.

What did you go out to the the desert to see? A reed bending the wind? (Aesop:"The Oak & the Reed") No, but a mighty oak, John the Baptist.

[Fr. Bill Moisant @FrBillM]

The root of the word"to repent"is"to crawl." John calls the religious leaders "children of snakes" because they crawl but are not converted.

[Fr. Bill Moisant @FrBillM]

Jesus calls us to live in reference to the end times. Be awake because you know neither the day nor the hour when the Lord will come for us.

[Fr. Bill Moisant @FrBillM]

As good stewards of God's gifts given to us freely, we are to receive the gifts, cherish them, thank God for them & share them with others.

[Fr. Bill Moisant @FrBillM]

Jesus died on the cross to save us from our sins (St Thomas Aquinas) and also to reflect the great love and mercy of God (St Bonaventure).

With the election approaching,it is important that all eligible people vote!To not vote when the stakes are so high would be an immoral act.

[Fr. Bill Moisant @FrBillM]

Hospitality is at the heart of the Christian Faith.Serving others as well as allowing them to serve us is set forth by Jesus in Lk 7:36-8:3.

[Fr. Bill Moisant @FrBillM]

The widow of Nain did not ask Jesus to raise her dead son. Rather, Jesus saw her desperate situation and fixed it. That is how God loves us.

[Fr. Bill Moisant @FrBillM]

Recently, we celebrated the Solemnity of the Body & Blood of Christ. Jesus gave us the Eucharist as food for our journey to eternal life.

[Fr. Bill Moisant @FrBillM]

On this feast of the Ascension, let us "be clothed in power from on high" and live our lives each day as genuine followers of Jesus Christ.
