How to deal with the sexual past of your partner.

We live in decadent times and in our circles, there are many converts with bad past who learned better and try to live as better as possible, in one hand yes there are natural consequences of that which cannot be ignored, on the other, it doesn't matter as it was repented but there is a natural reaction sooner or later, especially on those relationships where there is a big difference between the pasts of each other, the more similar, the less problems.

For those who would think that as long she/he is a virgin this won’t be a problem, that's wrong, it can be a problem as it’s not black-white, there are many sins to commit before losing virginity, of course, those won’t have as bad natural consequences as sexual intercourse but they are still there and demons will bring them up when you are weak. It's instinct.

-You have to fight your pride. As, without grace, we could have done much worse things, remember the sins you have done, in other aspects of your life. Sins blinds people and nobody taught them well enough to know how wrong those things were

-Pray and be in Grace. When it shows up, pray it away, and if something makes her remember it, pray it together, don't ask details at all, the less she remembers it, the better, so the effects of that won't affect your relationship at all. Beware that in especially in mortal sin, the devil will creep into your thoughts more often

-Discipline your thoughts. The temptation is to keep thinking about it, to make mental movies, this is like when you have a wound and you keep sticking a knife into it, the more you think about it, the worse and bigger it will become, to reject these memories gets easier the more you do.

-Focus on Yourself. It's all about you, this comes from insecurity, focus on yourself, to be better, on what you do together, your life in common with her, accept and offer this suffering to grow stronger, be a man.

-Healing. God has already forgiven it, you should do too. instead of thinking about it , focus on working together in patience, in prayer and penance to heal each other, to heal the imagination, our memories, it takes time to heal wounds, its not worth to be chained to the past memories and actions. God makes all things new.

Remember not former things, and look not on things of old. Behold I do new things, and now they shall spring forth, verily you shall know them: I will make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. ISAIAH 43:18-19

When we talk about forgiveness, recall the Medieval attitude. There was a popular legend about St. Mary Magdalene in the Middle Ages that in order to guard her renewed chastity and to assist in her penance, God caused her to be covered from the neck down in thick hair that hid all her features and made her unappealing. Her sins were thereby covered up by her penitence, and she was given a new form free of the marks of her former life, but also as a reminder of her devotion to God. So too, the sins of the incontinent and concupiscient can be covered up by God in their renewed devotion, but God also gives them this new birth with the reminder of their past, the warning against their slavery to the Devil, and His protection of His prodigal son or daughter.

God sends us to tend to the wounds of our fellow Christians and to promote their healing. He provides the means whereby the debt of sin is redeemed and the filth of sin is washed away; that does not fall to us. Like a parent teaching His children to work in the Garden, God handles the weeding and pruning of the soul. It falls to us to cultivate, to water, and to ensure the harvest finds its way to Him that he might press the fruit of our spiritual vinyard into the wine of our Salvation.

IF YOU wish to make progress in virtue, live in the fear of the Lord, do not look for too much freedom, discipline your senses, and shun inane silliness. Sorrow opens the door to many a blessing which dissoluteness usually destroys.

It is a wonder that any man who considers and meditates on his exiled state and the many dangers to his soul, can ever be perfectly happy in this life. Lighthearted and heedless of our defects, we do not feel the real sorrows of our souls, but often indulge in empty laughter when we have good reason to weep. No liberty is true and no joy is genuine unless it is founded in the fear of the Lord and a good conscience.

Happy is the man who can throw off the weight of every care and recollect himself in holy contrition. Happy is the man who casts from him all that can stain or burden his conscience.

Fight like a man. Habit is overcome by habit.

—Imitation of Christ: Sorrow of Heart

Saint Teresa of Jesus would always travel with her image of Infant Jesus when establishing new convents.

One day she was walking around her convent, when a beautiful young boy came to talk to her.

He asked her "who are you?", to which she replied "I am Teresa of Jesus, and you?"

The boy replied cheerfully: "I am Jesus of Teresa!" and walked away, disappearing.

He would appear many times later to her, in His adult manhood, to encourage her to join her suffering to His own for the conversion of sinners.

Listened to this while working out, excellent homily. Make yourselves right with God brothers, all else will fail if you do not tirelessly work to shield your family and yourself from the enticement of evil, and ensure an eternal life in glory. Be steadfast. Deo Gratias!

I thought I’d share my small prayer table, stuff like this is really helpful to have in your room especially next to your door so your always reminded to pray daily.

“I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”

How do we know that Q is a Jewish Psyop? Well, one of their wishes is the fall of the Catholic Church and the Pope, since the beginning of this movement they have been sharing false hopes for those who hate the Church that Jesus Christ founded himself. Guess what? Even the gates of Hades will not prevail against the One True Catholic Church.

The Magisterium of the Church condemns Free Market economics which, along with Usury (which is also condemned), constitutes the fundamental mechanism of Capitalism.

For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.

“The angle of God has been my keeper going from here, abiding there, and returning hither.” -Judith 13:20
God has appointed to every man on earth, his own Guardian Angel. From the first moment of your creation until the settlement of your death, the angle of God is by your side. In joy and sorry, through virtue and through sin, Your faithful caretaker is always there. Your guardian angel’s concerns with your soul are:
- To awake you from sin
- To keep you away from all people, places, and things that will cause temptation or a relapse in sin
- To help you persevere
- To help you fight the devils set in your path by inspiring prayer and meditation

Angel of God, my guardian dear,
To whom God’s love commits me here; ever this day be at my side
To light and guard, to rule and guide.
