Father's Corner - Week of August 9

By Fr. Mike Ishida

We live in a time of worry. Coronavirus, the economy because the politicians started the lockdowns, chaos in the streets and the like. The one solution is to let God back into the public square and our lives.

Let’s face it, we will all meet Our Lord, it’s the offer we can’t refuse. So get ready. Pray, learn what God has to say and understand your faith. That’s the only way to tell who speaks for God and who merely claims to.

Go to Mass on Sundays and confessions and don’t cut yourself off from the one person who can save you for all eternity. If you love God, the desire to spend time in worship is a requirement as is the desire to say you’re sorry if you offend him. Do you return God’s love or do you merely claim to?
