Hypocrisy or truth

Therefore whatever you have said in the darkness will be heard in the light, and what you have whispered behind closed doors will be proclaimed on the housetops.  Luke 12:3

Do not think that you will ever be able to hid anything from God.  He knows your coming and your going, whether you sit or stand.  He provides for a sparrow who has no way of securing his food, do you not think he would also provide for you?   He has counted the hairs on your head.  Fear of God should not bother you, we do not fear God in the sense that he is out to get us, but we should fear God in that we are doing everything that is right for our salvation.  But do not be afraid find comfort in the words from St. John Paul II “God’s love doesn’t impose burdens upon us that we cannot carry… For whatever He asks of us, He provides the help that is needed.”  We need to follow Jesus even in the fear of temptation.  Everything we do is a choice and we need to subconsciously think will this benefit my salvation or will this turn me away from God.  “And we know that all that happens to us is working for our good if we love God and are fitting into his plans.” Romans 8:28

Do you enjoy praying, reading the word of God, eager to share your faith? Are you excited by the thought of receiving Jesus in Holy Communion? Do you trust in God's Providence to provide all your needs and protect you from every danger especially to your soul?  

Belive then you are on the right path.

The crowds were amazed and said, “Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel.” But the Pharisees said, “He drives out demons by the prince of demons.”  Mathew 9:34 In the 'me culture' of today's society we fail to recognize Jesus.  There is so much ridicule that happens for one good thing that people fail to appreciate the good.  'If I appreciate that what will people say about me?'  Jesus did not care what people said, He continued on to complete his mission to the other towns and villages.  We live in a 'me culture' where we look at situations that happen around us and we ask what is in it for me, not what can I do to help.  We definitely do not live in a JOY filled world where Jesus is first, Others are second, and Yourself last.  Jesus did not let the doubt of the Pharisees dimish his message he was sent to bring.  He called for the master to send more laborers for the harvest.  There are people waiting to be invited, be strong in your faith.  The

My witness

Lets open with a prayer. In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit Amen. Lord Jesus, I believe in your presence in my life, family and those here today. I believe that you ask nothing of me that you do not give me the strength to do. I trust in the power of your grace and the care of your love. I love you, Lord, and I wish to love you with this prayer so that I may work according to your will and in your love. Amen Good Morning ~ Some of you may not know me, my name is Cory Sommer. I have been a member of St. Michael Catholic Church since 1999. When Pete asked if I was interested in giving my witness back in January, my immediate thought was am I ready, and after praying about it, I said yes but I still will probably read this word for word as that is where I am at right now. My second thought was, if I am ready, what are the daily readings for Mass for the day and what is God trying to teach me at this moment in my life. So if you know me you know that, and

You do not need to change I need to change...

Instead of you posting garbage to try to change the world, why don't you pray to God to change you?  Ask him to start in your soul and then pray to him to change your heart.  Believe me when I tell you, you do not have the ability to change the world, but you do have the ability to change you. Oh God I adore you, I give myself to you, may I be the person you want me to be and may your will be done in my life today....
