Las Vegas isn't such a bad city, if you stay away from the strip, and the immorality of the casino/downtown area. Recently we've had a relative from there visiting. She also has many other relatives in this area and is visiting them too. She used to have some very extreme ideas about almost everything. we never thought we'd agree with her so much as we have since her conversion. These days, however, she has converted to Christianity, although not reverting to her Catholic roots. As least not yet, anyway. She pronounced that she had finally found a Man who won't let her down, as so many others had. She has found Jesus Christ. Hooray!!!!! Maybe one of these days she will find her way to the Church founded by Christ Himself. We'll keep praying for her. She has found that she is way outnumbered now, as believers are. You know what I mean. The shunning, exclusion, and ridicule. Even in her own family. What a surprise.
I am going to give you a riddle, which I will explain in my next post, if I remember. This woman is my wife's sister's sister, but she is my wife's aunt. Got it yet? I didn't think so. Ha Ha!
Thought for the day:
"Give me grace to amend my life, and to have an eye to mine end, without grudge of death, which to them that die in thee,
good Lord, is the gate of a wealthy life." St. Thomas More

THREE THINGS
"Three things are necessary for the salvation of man; to know what he ought to believe; to know what he ought to desire; and to know what he ought to do."

Rights of Man?
"The people have heard quite enough about what are called the 'rights of man'. Let them hear about the rights of God for once". Pope Leo XIII Tamesti future, Encyclical
Eternity
All souls owe their eternity to Jesus Christ. Unfortunately, many have turned their back to him.
