I could use a all-purpose pat...Sister Mary Martha, <br />I could use a all-purpose patron saint.<br /> I have recently returned to school to obtain my college education and earn my degree in nursing.<br /> My difficulties started the first day. English, the one subject that I thought I would do well in, in going right straight down the toilet. Our teacher wants us to work exclusively with the computer and the internet. Nothing could have frightened me more, except the fires of Hell, of course. I am all but computer illiterate, having confidence only in the simplest of tasks.<br />I already have a 60 in English. My teacher said I didn't save my paper in rich text format. Huh?<br />When I ask her show me something on the computer, she becomes visibly agitated and states that I must learn to use the computer, or I simply won't succeed in college.<br />Now, due to heightened anxiety, the narrative thesis statement, outline, and bulleted list looms large before me. The assignment was assigned Friday, are due Monday. This Monday. Help!elfinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16284040974639197043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30512717.post-27159091205600947522012-01-27T15:41:18.800-08:002012-01-27T15:41:18.800-08:00Dear Sister,
Have your seen "that" YouT...Dear Sister,<br /><br />Have your seen "that" YouTube video everyone is talking about? The one called Why I Hate Religion, but Love Jesus- I've seen it posted all over the internet, discussed on the national news and more! As a youth leader at my church I know many young people confused over this video. It has a few points, and many many wrong ones. Things like this make me so upset. I sometimes feel like all the small things I do in my life to show God and His love to the world are washed away in all this anti-religion-anti-God-anti-Catholicism media. I know that God is our side and with Him we'll in this religious war, but sometimes I just want to scream it's not fair! Does anyone else feel like this? All I can do if pray that God will work on the hearts of these actively going against God and his ChurchAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30512717.post-64926719975225733772012-01-27T14:04:55.155-08:002012-01-27T14:04:55.155-08:00Love to hear your take on this author http://thele...Love to hear your take on this author http://thelesliecrossdomain.com who seems to have an interesting view on the universe. The book series (The Nature of Reality) deals with a new cosmology that includes God in the universe but defines “Universe” as the original word means, everything that exists. Does see God as outside of what he created, so not a naturalist nor a pantheist, so quite an interesting take on things.<br />He or she (they don’t specify) does believe the christian God and Bible, but rejects God being outside of time, and so on as misunderstandings from the Greeks, claims the Judeo-Christian view ought to be the opposite, God inside the dimensions, that they are not created things.<br />My head hurts thinking about this, but it seems to make sense.<br />What do you think about Leslie Cross?<br />Thanks for your blog!

Thank you for the valuable answer to this ...Sister,<br />Thank you for the valuable answer to this request. You remind us all to remember God's love and mercy for us. As you said about Blessed Marianne Cope, "she found joy where there had only been sorrow." <br />Saint Brother Andre of St. Joeseph's Oratory said "Go To St. Joeseph". <br />I will send up prayers for both of them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
