I have to agree with you Jane, I was brought up as a catholic as well and taught by Nuns, we lived in fear and always lived with a lot of guilt, I still go to mass each week though….since listening to the daily devotionals each day since lent last year I’m beginning to have a better understanding of everything, it’s helped me immensely. A big thank you to Bruce

Another good reflection talk Bruce, Thank God for his mercies which are new every day and give us every day another chance to right our relationship with Him, through Jesus.
🤗that’s why we have the term practicing Catholic!👍. Everyday we ask for His help and guidance and we receive the grace to do whatever we need to do! Holy Spirit led🙌

I loved todays message. As a convert to the Catholic faith I thought part of it was the rules and didnt think about the the actual relationship with God.
I am also a convert! Catholic should be the happiest, most joyfilled people on this earth! We know the rules… so we can play the game of life! Thank you Jesus we get to call God, Father! And the gift of the Holy Spirit to guide and lead! Get Bruces awesome book on prayer and start to journal !🕊

Thank you Bruce. I never doubted that I wanted a relationship with Christ. Yet, I know I have not been a loyal friend like prayer is to me. My FAITH gets me through.

The saying “fear of God” is what my very catholic grandma always said to me. I was a mischievous child and she would threaten me with God. Sadly, that has caused me to fear our God and think God was always angry with me. This lenten journey has opened my heart to understand better! Thank you.

I would like to pray for my husband Bobby to open up his heart and let God in. Bobby is not happy with who he is. I pray for my husband and my marriage. I just wish Bobby would be a happy and positive person but instead he is an angry man so he turns to alcohol.

AIs a cradle Catholic with 12 years of Catholic education, I lived a life full of fear and guilt. Remember fasting from midnight until after we received Communion? This Lenten season has really touched my emotions and heart. This has never happened to me before. All I can think about is the Passion and Death of Jesus that was done to redeem our sins. This has stirred up more guilt.

Being raised Catholic was full of fear and resulted in living with a lot of guilt.
🥺 it was never meant to be like that! Welcome to a New Life full of joy, peace and gratitude! See what you do Bruce🎉
