The future of the world rests on Catholic Couples. They bless the world by having children! Every human soul we bring into being is a Bright Light that shines forever to bless us and to Glorify God. And, their children will increase The Shining Light of Heaven!
St. Paul tells every Catholic what we should be in Today’s Catholic Reading from 1 Corinthians 4:1-5. “Brothers and sisters: ‘Thus should one regard us as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God.'”
That is God telling married Catholics who are “servants of Christ” to: “Have another child!” Younger and older Catholic Couples who answer that call bless their souls to be forever among the blessed “servants of Christ” who are “stewards of the mysteries of God”!
Catholics who have more children meet this qualification for getting into Heaven: “Now it is of course required of stewards that they be found trustworthy.” Catholic Couples show themselves to be more “trustworthy” every time they have a child!
Today, Psalm 37: 3-6, 27-28, 30-40 calls us to have children: “The salvation of the just comes from the Lord. We are called to trust in Him and do good, that you may dwell in the land and be fed in security… commit to the LORD your way; trust in Him, and He will act.”
God promises to take care of Catholics and our children. “He forsakes not His faithful ones… He is their refuge in times of distress… and the LORD helps and delivers them from the wicked and saves them because they take refuge in Him.”
Catholic Couples have God’s “light” shine in Today’s “Alleluia” from John 8:12! “‘I am the light of the world’, says the Lord; ‘ whoever follows Me will have the light of life.'”
Catholic “follow” God so that His “light of life” shines more brightly on them every time they bring a baby into the world. Catholic Couples realize how important that is as we get older!
It is a Catholic Blessing to see why some people hate for us to have children! We love God. Lost souls love themselves: “Be like us! Give your life to what you want! Do not let anything distract you from that!”
Those unhappy souls have been overwhelmed by the seven tribes of demons that take form in the seven deadly sins of pride, envy, greed, gluttony, anger, lust, and sloth. The New Catholic Word, “peggalas”, helps us identify those evil spirits and keep them from distracting us from our life-giving mission in life.
