Good Things Come to Those Who Wait | Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P. 

Darn daym! That's too much long time. You definitely felt the sins off ☠️📴 your soul and physical body voy! See im happy you took responsibility, respect you for confessing your sins to Christ and priest absoluting your sins with permission God. I should do that too. I have a dominican friar of padre pios order at my Christ King church in city of austin. He seems very spiritual with his beer and big gut belly that padee pio had Lol! But i already confessed with him. I havent actually never felt the literal spiritual feeling or physical feeling sensation of my sins being pushed away off of my body. As if i was not a black rug of dirty good works that lack significance to a good clean 🪥 white rug with meaning purpose love hope..i sure do pray i feel the same as you or better. Because im mostly likely lacking hope and love more than you were. Pornography and masturbation is a hell of a drug from day 1 starting as a 11 year old to now as a 21 year old. I hope i can say im "it is finished" and not touch my genitals mindlessly and consciously and as if i never masturbated, and never watched pornography, as if that 11 little innocent year old boy never felt this weird sinful sensation in his brain mind body and soul of perversion in his genitals, and eyes as he masturbated, and became filled with more than original sin, his own fault his own age of sins now not culpable for eve adam but himself ONLY. id like to CONTINUALLY EXIST as a "good man" though Christ said there is none. Ill be acting as Christ like as i could possibly, and really long for the moment im forever freed from lusts traumas, im virgin, never fornicated, never married im 21 how can i be? Nowadays most males are living with their mother or both father mother as i am. Sad. But i want to decided that this month is the month im freed before my 22nd birthday on may31st. I feel and i AM Hopelessly lost! I have no JOB. Which stupiddly gives maleness its meaning. And my mother tells me not to worry about it! To hell with Gods timing I WANT IT NOW!!!! GOD HELP ME!!!!

I had a similar experience a few weeks ago. His graces are the medicine we need; and the absolution we receive in confession is the most potent of medicines, the Eucharist notwithstanding. God bless you and stay confessed.

Awesome news! 🙏🏻🫶🏻

Amazing! Just in time before the Mercy Sunday! You know, there's the indulgence attached to it ☺️😇.

That’s awesome! Were you aware that it was Divine Mercy Saturday when you went? In the Diary of St. Faustina, Jesus said "The soul that will go to Confession (on Divine Mercy Saturday) and receive Holy Communion shall obtain complete forgiveness of sins and punishment. On that day all the divine floodgates through which graces flow are opened."

😂

Good one

same for me

6 children and 7 grandchildren - evidence of God working to the good even in your trials. God bless.

Keep going mrs Jones,good job sister

Sometimes the crosses we're called to carry are family. God bless you and I think your right about the salvific purpose of your suffering

I offer you my sincere prayers - I too married a narcissist and had three beautiful children (all grown) we separated, divorced and finally annulled. I'm in a new relationship but still haunted by my experience. Praying that I will have half the grace you have to move on in my new relationship or to let go. Thank you for sharing your story - do pray all continues in giving suffering up to the Lord.

It sounds like you could greatly benefit from the great Catholic psychologist Adam Lane Smith.

There is an organization called Fund For Vocations that helps those called to a religious vocation to be able to join earlier than they otherwise might be able to if student debt is the impediment. Good Luck!

Yea I’ll look into it but 200k? I highly doubt it and why would burden anyone with that debt? I’m going to try my best to lower it to the point where it’s more reasonable to ask for money from this website. It’s a tough battle to be a horrible field. It’s feel like I’m an imposter. But God will get me through this. I’ll be and am with Him forever regardless.

@roshinvarghese6879 There is a video by Mthr Natalia called "It's Okay to be Needy" I think you should watch as it could benefit you spiritually. God Bless🌸

Considering that God is the ultimate protagonist, what exactly are the ways in which you interpret God as 'antagonizing' you? Understanding more specifics would probably be helpful for someone trying to offer you a constructive suggestion.

One thing to know is that God is not in complete control of every single detail. If someone is making you angry or annoying, it doesn't mean that God sent that person to bother you. It just means you happen to come across that type of person. Not every tribulation we passed is part of part of being tested,life is not always easy.

Faith. Deepen your relationship and offer up to God this suffering for the sake of others.

As an addendum: this happens both for things I plan out, as well as spontaneous decisions with no prior knowledge of the event that foils my action in some way, shape or form. This phenomenon often inconveniences only me, because nobody else had ,for example, sought to take this specific tram line at around the same time as me, only to find ten minutes have passed and no tram came. The unintentional alienation only compounds my suspicion...

Oh. It appears my main comment was deleted. Oh well. Not retyping that small essay again.

Read the workers in the vineyard parable. Why be jealous of the good God gives to others? Be joyful for them; perhaps their early marriage is a blessing and will bring them closer to God. And as for 'good' people who have to wait for their 30s, first off, Romans 3:10 (There is not one righteous man, not even one). Also, we should not do good works in expectations that we will be rewarded in that way; we do these good works as a reflection of our faith, hope and love in God, who we love above all things. We know our God will not forsake us, and that in due time He will deliver us from strife.

​@@varpyr713 You put it a lot better than I could have 😅

I understand that struggle. I'm 36 and still single, but I know people who have been happily married since their early 20's. All I can do is seek to keep following God's will and keep pursuing the kind of relationship I'm looking for.

If God's will for your life is to be married , the moment will come . Matthew 19:10-12 explains why not everyone will get married.For those who do get married at a young age, we don't know if that person is following the will of God or their own personal will .Marriage is not exclusive to only Christianity. you can be a good person, but if God is calling you to become a priest, you won't find a spouse.

If you can create good in your life like meet someone I would do it sooner than later for the reason you don’t want to be behind in learning the lessons you won’t learn by being single and you won’t get from a book. Putting off things many times can make things more difficult, more expensive. I don’t know for your own peace with God I would be careful having an attitude “ it will happen in the future” More than anything I wish God gave guidance I could count on.

Look up Viry-Châtillon, 4th of April, he died afternoon of Friday 5th.

Eckhart Tolle IS NOT an ordained servant of God.
