It's Great Being Catholic Right Now

It was the best of times; it was the worst of times...

In my previous podcast I talked about why it's difficult to be Catholic right now.

In this podcast, I'll share why it's great to be Catholic right now.

How can life be both difficult but also hopeful?

St John Henry Newman said: “Ten thousand difficulties do not make one doubt, as I understand the subject; difficulty and doubt are incommensurate.”

We were made for this time. God is with us.

Easy to be Catholic when things are good, people like us; hard and more meritorious to be Catholic when times are bad.

Hope in Christ, they can kill body but not soul.

Grace is available to us.

Never give up.

Remember too that our children were made for this time, and they need to have hope in spite of the avalanche of evil that we face.

That hope is not merely hope in a pleasant life; it may very well be a difficult life for them, but hope in living a truly GOOD life, and dying a happy death, and being with God forever in Heaven.
