I'll Buy That

Image
  Modern media molds mindsets.   We are bombarded and brainwashed to buy this and buy that, whether we need it or not, we are made to think we must have it.

Country life vs city life

Image
  We have chosen to escape and eradicate the spacious and simple country life;  and have instead chosen to evolve and expand the sprawling, sewerage-ridden city life.

Rest and restoration in Our Redeemer

PERFECT PEACE

Image
  Perfect peace comes  when we trust in God  and have our thoughts fixed on God

Authentically Catholic

Image
  You don’t compete with social media;  you offer a radical alternative. You don’t imitate the societal secularism;  you offer the spiritually supernatural.

In God We Trust not In Google We Trust

Image
  Before it was “In God We Trust”. Now it is “In Google We Trust”. Where there once was absolute confidence rightfully placed in Divine Providence, now there is unbounded misplaced confidence bestowed upon technology. God is to be Trusted, google is not to be trusted. Return to Trusting in God, reject trusting in google.

Another Influencer Priest Leaves His Vocation (What’s Going On?)

Image
Video link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uvfFjbtABk Personal reflection:  It’s interesting to note that Archbishop Fulton Sheen who will soon be canonized, was definitely a media influencer of his time. It is also interesting to note that he made a daily Eucharistic Adoration Holy Hour. Did these clergy and consecrated religious who left their vocation maintain a prayerful and sacramental life along with their media presence? Did their life in front of the camera overtake their life in front of Christ? Did they really influence others, or were others really influencing them more? Was it truly their God-given mission to be media missionaries, or was it done more for their own self-aggrandizement and popularity? Media is cool, and being a famous media personality is even cooler; because who doesn’t want to be cool and do cool things, but at what price to be paid, at the end what will it cost them? The evil one is convincing and conniving, don’t be fooled and fall for his deadly e...

Apple iPhone "new and improved"

Image
  Personal reflection: We are seductively seduced by the terminology of “new and improved”. Every year there is a “new and improved” Apple iPhone that we are tempted into buying because we are convincingly exhorted that we must have it, even though our old phone works perfectly well. Just like the apple was tempting to Adam and Eve in the Garden, the Apple logo in the garden of evil is still tempting us today. The same snake that tempted Adam and Eve to consume the Apple in the Garden, that they were commanded by God not to eat; is the same snake that tempts us today to consume the poisonous Apple in the garden of the evil on our screens that manifoldly manifests the seven deadly sins that are against God’s commandments. The seven deadly sins, or capital vices, in Catholic teaching: pride, avarice, envy, wrath, lust, gluttony, and sloth; all of which can be found and consumed while scrolling on our screens.

Beautiful, Good, & True

Image
  Treasure all that is  aesthetically BEAUTIFUL,  morally GOOD, and  objectively TRUE!

Radicals

Image
  Radicals are about re-definition. Traditionalists are about Truth. There's the Christian rainbow and then  there's the corrupted coalition rainbow. The corrupted coalition re-defined  God's rainbow  as pride. The vice of pride has been re-defined  as a virtue. The virtue of humility has been re-defined  as a vice. Stand with the Truth, Stand with Traditionalists.

God-Given JOY

Image
  Don’t let the flesh, the world, and the evil one sap your God-given JOY   Don’t anticipate potential problems   Gratitude restores joy  

It takes a mother and father to raise a priest

Image
Short video link: https://m.youtube.com/shorts/Au8Bg9gs-gY Personal reflection: The Holy Catholic Church in her wisdom and tradition rightfully recognizes and honors that it takes a mother and father to raise a priest. Her son, as a newly ordained priest, bestows to his mother the maniturgium, the cloth which soaked up all the sacred chrism the bishop poured on her son’s hands when he was ordained. His son, as a newly ordained priest, bestows to his father the stole in which he heard his first confession. When his mother dies and is buried, the maniturgium is placed in his mother’s coffin, so that when she stands before God, she can show God that she offered God her son as a priest. When his father dies and is buried, the stole is placed in his father’s coffin, so that when he stands before God, he can show God that he offered God his son as a priest. The correct title of the short video should rightly read according to the holy tradition of the Catholic Church: “A man does not walk th...

“Satan Is The Eternal Loser!”: The Devil’s Head Is Crushed Again in Austin

Image
  Article link: https://www.tfp.org/satan-is-the-eternal-loser-the-devils-head-is-crushed-again-in-austin/ Thank God and God bless Our Lady’s prayer warriors from Tradition, Family, Property—Texas (TFP-Texas) who held a Rosary Rally of reparation.

Christ-like confidence

Image
  When we confess, we are cleansed and conduct ourselves in Christ-like confidence Faithful to forgive – Forward in forgiveness Act like you believe Act don’t react Move forward in faith and trust in the Trinitarian Truth  

Disordered

Image
Disordered drives once demonized are now divinized;  being made divine or elevated to a divine nature. See them for what they really are and disavow disordered drives.

Fear is foolish

Image
  Fear is foolish Fretting and fussing are fruitless Feel fear and fan the flames of faith Conquer fear with Christ’s Love Drive out fear with Divine Love Love is stronger than fear Because of God’s Love we have nothing to fear

Stop saying “it takes a village”

Image
  Video link:  https://m.youtube.com/shorts/Au8Bg9gs   Personal reflection: Beautiful video, unfortunately the phrase in the title, “it takes a village” is marxist woke speak that has infiltrated and inflicted its socialistic ideology in the Church. We are not communists, marxists, or socialists; we the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church. Stop speaking woke. Stop using woke language. Speak the words of the Traditional Bible and the Traditional teachings throughout the history of the Catholic Church. No need to add anything new or novel; Truth is timeless.

God bless these young men for their courageous public witness.

Image
  Personal reflection:     Some young men spend their summer playing video games, while others are advocating and affirming pro-life and bringing the atrocities of abortion to the forefront in the public square. God bless the American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family, and Property (TFP).

Shouldn’t everybody wash their hands for hygiene and sanitation purposes?

Worry is Worthless

Image
  Worthless worry makes us woefully weary and weak   Worrying inflates our problems to appear huge, enormous, insurmountable, even bigger than they really are.   If you think your problems are big, remember God is even BIGGER. God is BIGGER than your problems.
