A Wayward Catholic Life Lesson: Choices

On May 31, 2012 By Paul RoyIn UncategorizedLeave a comment

We have all heard the expression after something bad happens to us that “God is testing us”. Perhaps we have said it ourselves. I am here to tell you this is not true. God does not test us, we only test ourselves. Now this might be hard for some to believe, but God is smarter …

On May 27, 2012 By Paul RoyIn Faith, Uncategorized1 Comment

The subject for today's reflection is prayer. Something some of us do, and some of us don't. When we were kids we probably all spent at least a few minutes each night, kneeling by our beds, our mother sitting next to us, saying our prayers. In my case I seem to remember an "Our Father", a …

High Ho, High Ho, It’s Off To Work I Go

On May 11, 2012 By Paul RoyIn Catholicism, Christianity, Faith2 Comments

I haven't quite figured this out yet, but every time I have a faith related question, the answer seems to pop up unexpectedly. Every night when I go to bed, after I do my nightly prayer and reading, I think about faith issues. Some time these questions are pretty deep, "Does God really exist?", "Why does …
