Thank you father. This gospel was hard to understand for me but now I am closer to get what it is about even in foreign language. You have the Grace to explain father. God bless you.

4th Homily I've heard today & so blessed to incorporate those learning & tried to apply in my daily journey. God bless to all the good & holy priests as you guys helped us in so many ways to stay in the right path as I've said before, so much distractions wherever you turn! Thank you Fr. Mike, have a great day!

Thank you for another wonderful lesson! This was a very tough gospel for me to understand. I went to church last night and still didn't understand it after the homily, I couldn't wait for your version this morning. It's much clearer to me now. Thank you. There's one line in the gospel that I still don't understand. If someone can help me understand it. "I tell you, make friends for yourselves with dishonest wealth, so that when it fails, you will be welcomed into eternal dwellings." Does that mean when we recognize that dishonesty and love of money leads to nothing, we will become mindful as to what it will take to win the real race, the one that leads to our eternal salvation? That's the best I could make of it.

Prudence is a virtue. Be prudent in small things and Jesus is who we trust.

[@danielhanna9742]

Well said Father.

[@francesbernard2445]

I better be prudent too if I want the province of Alberta to remain rat free. Like when not being complacent by for example leaving a property I have been made repsonsible for in terrible disrepair and/or empty while moving on to 'greater' things. I feel grateful to the decent men who thought that was a good idea too when offering me charity to help me be responsible in that way after I moved in. What joy it is when living in a free nation where I can pass that charity on.

The experiment he is referring to was done by Dan Arierly and is documented in his book entitled predictably irrational.

No one - on this earth - can possibly - think & act - as -- " Only Our Good Lord "" - can stop wasting your time - trying to teach otherwise- you will always lose -

real words. church: a congregation of families mutual interest in the pursuit of absolute truth, civil order and rule accurate and true in its wise compassion, governed by the proven actuals of space, time and beyond, life, the universe and everything. in actual measure. the one perceived belief is the eventual proof of GOD one way or another. temple: a collection of specific information, knowledge and wisdom. hall: a specific collection of information and knowledge. school: a current grouping of fish. (teach a man to fish...). 2) a manmade way of viewing a hall, temple or church, its content and concepts. therefore: politics-democracy-school=drain(brain, mind, spirit).
