Faithful Friday: GOD’s Peace

Go to Church for comfort & strength💪.

That’s what my dad👨 advised me, in particular when I was devastated that his mother/my paternal grandmother, Mama Eufemia👵, my last surviving grandparent, was dying.

Hence, I heeded his suggestion and went to Church💒, not just for Mass🙏, but also Adoration💖.

My neighborhood Church at the time was Queen of Peace👑, which I visited this morning.

It’s not all about you☝️.

When my mom👩 told me this, I felt offended at first, but she’s absolutely right. As a matter of fact, when GOD spoke to me before the Blessed Sacrament today, He reminded me of my parents’ remarks: to live for the LORD, not for myself. Peace! ✌️
