Our minds, bodies, souls, and lives are overweight. We need “The Catholic Diet”!
~
Question 1: “What kind of ‘diets’ do we need?”
Anwswer: “Our bodies become bloated when we take too much food into them. Minds become bloated when we take too many ideas into them. Our lives become bloated when we have too many possessions. Souls become bloated with confusing ideas about God.”

Question 2: “Is there a way to go on all four diets for our bodies, minds, lives, and souls at the same time?”
Answer: “Catholic priests and religious take Vows of Obedience, Chastity, and Poverty to keep their bodies, minds, lives, and souls from being swollen with confusion. ‘The Catholic Diet’ fills their days with prayer and good works to remain pleasing to God.”

Question 3: “Does God want us to be on ‘The Catholic Diet’?”
Answer: “We know that Creation began about 13 trillion light-years ago, when God said ‘Let there be light.’ He used the time between then and now to program and download all that we can see with our telescopes and microscopes.
The miracles of over 300 Prophecies about Jesus lets Catholics realize God loves those who are blessed to love Him and their neighbors. Being in The Church God’s Son Spoke Into Being lets us get on, and stay on, ‘The Catholic Diet’ its Holy Food for our mind, body, life, and soul: ‘And I say unto you thou art Peter and on this rock I build My Church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I give you the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven.’”
Today’s Final Reading, from John 3:31-36, ends with: ‘Whoever believes in The Son has eternal life, but whoever disobeys The Son will not see life.’ May we all be blessed to live as Catholics do, and obey The Church-Creating Word of Jesus to His First Catholic Pope.”
