Divorce, the devil's tool against the family

Nowadays, more and more families choose to divorce, and they do it far too easily from my point of view. We have become unaccustomed to the sacrifice that we should have given to the other, to the patience and attention that we should offer them, and thus we have given room for the devil to get his tail into our thoughts and convince us that divorce is the best solution.

Well, the Church does not teach us like that, but on the contrary, it guides us towards understanding, love, patience, prayer, etc., towards the other. The Church teaches that divorce can only occur in the case of cheating by one of the partners, the rest of the reasons being able to be resolved, perhaps through other means, like those mentioned earlier. Of course, there are also extreme cases in which divorce may be the last resort to be able to live a free life, as God gave us to live, but I am not referring to these in this post.

Divorce means division, the separation of two people whom God united through the Sacrament of Marriage, and the father of division and lies is none other than the evil one, the devil. Before divorcing, we should carefully weigh our thoughts and try to discern where they come from, whose they are? Divorce can have harsh repercussions in our lives and in our partner's, so whose side do we want to position ourselves on?

On the other hand, if we also discuss marriage, it must be the exact opposite of divorce. Marriage must be crowned with sacrifice, love, understanding, acceptance of the other, commitment, help, prayer for the other, etc. So if we want a happy marriage, we must sacrifice our time, pride, and ego for the other, offering them what I mentioned above: love, understanding, patience, prayer, etc.

From my own experience, I write that a divorce can be extremely painful, especially when you do not fully understand its reasons. Therefore, please make sure that the decision to divorce is the best for you and that this decision was not made too quickly, for childish or too easy reasons, or even as a result of the manipulation of the devil, who makes his presence felt more and more often today. The great battle of today is fought at the level of thoughts. I have written this several times in my posts, because I believe that this is where we must focus our attention and combat negative thoughts that lead to division, separation, loneliness, untruth, etc.

God help us!

Disadvantages of working on a computer and from home

Image
Although I really like what I do, I can honestly say that in the long run it can seriously damage your health. Yes, being a programmer, I spend a lot of time in front of the computer, and most of the time, when I take a break, I reach out and... you guessed it: I use my phone. These habits are not at all healthy for our minds, which need airing out and relaxing in nature. I wrote in another post that, unfortunately, my current lifestyle is not exactly healthy, and this has not been the case for a long time, but for years. I've been working from home for about 3-4 years, hearing many people around me tell me that I'm "lucky" to work this way. Working from home does indeed have its benefits, but in the long run, its disadvantages may outweigh the advantages. The main reason why I say this is the lack of socialization, of closeness to our peers, often ending up listening to and trusting our own thoughts, which most of the time are nothing but misleading and even harmful....

Prayer - the key to another world

Image
Since I discovered prayer, I can say that I have found myself again, but not in any way, but much stronger. Prayer is the key to God's world, a world full of love, freedom, patience, mercy, forgiveness, hope, faith, and other wonderful qualities. A world in which I certainly want to live, as well as all those close to me (including those who are asleep), and not only (but since I am not the one who decides on behalf of others, all I can do is pray for them). This world of prayer is not an imaginary one, but one as concrete as possible. A world in which God, the Mother of God, and the saints listen to our prayers and, if they are useful to us, at the right time, they are also fulfilled. Prayers to the Mother of God and to the saints are intercessory prayers, in which we ask them to intercede for us before the Lord Jesus Christ, so that He, in His omniscience, may decide whether or not to fulfill the prayers addressed to Him by us. Prayer is the food of the soul. Also, with the help ...

Perseverance in the face of illness and in life

Image
Having experienced illness (in my case depression ) I can say that perseverance played an important role in getting me back to a somewhat normal level of living. Of course, in the face of illness we are all helpless. But also, God does not give us more than we can handle, and with His help, we can overcome everything. All we have to do is move forward, with our head first, having the hope that God is holding our hand and that He will break down any door that seems unopenable. By these doors, I mean the different stages of an illness, whatever it may be, or of some experiences or feelings in our lives. In my case, there were several doors that I felt I could no longer open, but I persevered, prayed, and tried endlessly, until the doors collapsed before me. Especially in the case of depression, the symptoms can be so strong that the sufferer can even commit suicide. That is why I maintain so loudly and strongly that we must cling with our whole being to God, Who is love and kindness, mer...
