More specifically can the Angel of Death marry a powerful demon?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30512717.post-72903540889459851762012-01-02T15:21:31.106-08:002012-01-02T15:21:31.106-08:00@Anonymous School Guidance Counselor: Our Lady of...@Anonymous School Guidance Counselor: Our Lady of Perpetual Help is almost always a good bet for anyone with problems.

Like God, they have powerful intellects and wills. They don't have to learn, unlike us temporal humans, which is why demons can't repent from the fall (I think they technically exist outside of time.)Lilynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30512717.post-82600888834207861372011-12-29T07:00:37.417-08:002011-12-29T07:00:37.417-08:00Sister, Would you please guide me to a patron sain...Sister, Would you please guide me to a patron saint. These are my issues: I work full time as a school guidance counselor, I am married and have three children. My son is a nice young adult who has graduated from college and lives successfully on his own. My daughters are a mess. Both still live at home. The oldest thinks partying is her main purpose in life and she has a daughter out of wedlock. The youngest suffers from mental illness and struggles from day to day. Needless to say I feel stressed and am often vacillating between being angry, frustrated, and worried sick. I would really appreciate your guidance. Thank you your blog really is a bright spot for me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30512717.post-38923425709593944152011-12-28T19:06:20.103-08:002011-12-28T19:06:20.103-08:00I ask the archangel Raphael daily - hourly - to he...I ask the archangel Raphael daily - hourly - to heal my son. I feel comforted, just knowing that there is such a powerful being to turn to, and I hadn't really heard of this archangel until someone mentioned the Book of Tobit to me when my son was diagnosed with leukaemia.I have since read it many times.<br />I could never cope with this level of grieving without the knowledge that I am absolutely not alone.Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02383223698959645624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30512717.post-443856504941741912011-12-28T16:30:22.451-08:002011-12-28T16:30:22.451-08:00I heard that the early church put horns on the dev...I heard that the early church put horns on the devil to get pagans away from worshipping the god of the hunt (who had horns, like the animals they hunted).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30512717.post-41347567473190669602011-12-28T16:17:34.848-08:002011-12-28T16:17:34.848-08:00Dear Sister Mary Martha,
I appreciate your blog s...Dear Sister Mary Martha,<br /><br />I appreciate your blog so very much! I love how you always seem to find just the right patron saint for any cause. And so I'm writing to you with my own question: who would you recommend as the patron saint for military spouses? With all the loneliness, the worrying, and the hardships that we are facing, we could use our own saint for intercessions. My friend Maia was thinking of St. Margaret of Scotland (her reasons are stated here: http://flowersroundthecross.blogspot.com/2009/11/when-ute-and-i-were-brain-birthing-this.html), but can you think of a saint whose husband was NOT killed in battle and came home safe and sound instead?<br />Thank you so much for taking the time to answer this!<br />UteUtehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03638972633217163465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30512717.post-64776608659810376542011-12-28T15:29:16.196-08:002011-12-28T15:29:16.196-08:00There are no St. Fabiloa medals available.
