God bless the lady in front of me in line at the gas station—buying a pile of junk food, two packs of cigarettes, forgetting which pump she was prepaying for, struggling to get her card to swipe, then pumping gas while sitting in the car with the engine running.

John the Baptist is the greatest prophet of the Old Covenant, yet even the “least in the Kingdom” shares the New Covenant graces he didn’t have on earth—greatness in salvation history, not holiness. ✝️📜 #Matthew11 #Catholic

Watching #BatmanBegins on @Tubi and the firm refusal to kill is Batman’s crucial moral compass. It affirms the sanctity of life and rejects utilitarianism, even when fighting absolute evil. That uncompromising moral line is a great echo of foundational Catholic ethics. #Catholic #SanctityOfLife

St. Juan Diego— the humble tilma-bearer of Heaven’s beauty.
In silence, he received the Queen of Heaven; in obedience, he carried her message; in simplicity, he revealed God’s tenderness to the world.
O that our hearts might become tilmas for Christ’s grace.

Comfort, comfort My people” (Isaiah 40:1–11).
In the wilderness of every human heart, the Lord comes gently, carrying His lambs close, leveling mountains of fear, straightening paths twisted by sin.
His mercy is stronger than our frailty, His promise nearer than our breath. ✨🐑🙏

The Shepherd rejoices more over one lost soul found than the ninety-nine who never strayed. Matthew 18:12–14 shows God’s relentless, personal love for every one of us—He wills that none be lost, and He searches for each heart until He brings it home. 🕊️✝️

I saw this restaurant in a Chicago suburb with a large Muslim population. Halal Mexican food. It looks not so good.

The Church teaches that being undocumented is a civil issue, not a sin. CCC 2241 affirms the right to migrate, and CCC 1903 says unjust laws don’t bind the conscience. Popes and the USCCB teach that human dignity comes before paperwork. ✝️🕊️ #Catholic #Doctrine #Justice
Not every violation of civil law is a sin. The Church teaches that unjust or overly burdensome laws do not bind the conscience. Migration to seek safety or provide for one’s family is a human right. Our duty is to uphold both justice and mercy. ✝️🕊️ #Catholic #Justice #HumanDignity

Iron Maiden (ages 67–73) and Anthrax (46–65) are coming together in Chicago, with an average age of 64. I can’t stop wondering what that mosh pit is gonna look like now. 😂🤘

Listen to Fr. Miguel (MFVA) on Spotify and Fr. Luke Fletcher (CFR) at the Blue Army Shrine on YouTube. Their preaching invites the heart to repentance, simplicity, and a deeper love of Christ hidden and present. ✝️📿

New GNR track just dropped and it’s more rubbish. Honestly, no good music has been made by anyone after 1999. Prove me wrong.

Only now do I realize: Advent and Christmas lead us to two meetings — encountering Christ in His holy birth, and preparing to meet Him at the end of our lives. A season of humility, watchfulness, and the soul awakening to its Savior. #Advent #Christmas
