Question:

I post sometimes in spiritual warfare, but I will post here. First I want to thank you immensely for your time, and I hope that you are taking care of yourself. I know you are ill, so this is all a big sacrafice to help us.

I also want to tell you that whatever advice you have given me, I have used. At one time I was terribly confused, a big mess after my Dad dieing about 2 years ago---it was an AWESOME rush each day for a year as I had just had a baby and then helped take care of my sick Dad with my aged mother. Jude, my youngest daughter, was his joy to the end. It was WELL worth offering him this gift of seeing her daily. Dust gathered and the lawn GREW wildly, but my Dad and baby were FAR more important.

I read my bible now and marvel at my faith. I wear my brown scapular and pray the rosary. God Lives. Jesus Lives. I marvel in it because I REALIZE it is a GIFT. I did not have it for a time, and I attribute my regaining "spiritual sanity" to your prayers. I do have alot of problems with horrible temptations, anger, depression, but it is all LIGHT in comparison with having NO FAITH. I have problems with confessions, and scruples, and money, but it is all light compared to not believing in God.

You are a a spiritual father to many like me, so Happy Father's Day from me to you. your ministry is appreciated.
