The Devil Doesn't Know What's On Your Mind



Even if you are so predictable.
When you love somebody, say it.  When you are sorry for having hurt someone, tell that person.  When you abhor something, renounce it out loud.

Because the devil doesn't know what's on your mind.  Until you make it clear to him your choice, he will not stop from enticing you to do things his way.  And he can only base his moves from your very own moves.

In the same way that when you are sorry for having offended God, you've got to confess it.  Out loud.  Not for God,  for He does already know what you are about to do or say even before you speak it.  Confessing out loud is for the devil to know what you truly think and feel.   "Hear me now?  Huh?  I am sorry of having chosen your way and I am saying sorry to my God! Bite me!"

The same thing applies to human-to-human relationship.  If you just base love on showmanship, there's a chance, a tiny bit of chance that things can get misunderstood.  It might be just a tiny chance, but it is still a chance.  Murphy's Law. And boy, how things can get messy sometimes.  Never base it on "Isn't it obvious?"  Nope, the recipe ain't complete without having to put things into words, which ever way you can.

Come to think of it.  If people just say what they need to get sent across to other people,  the world is less complicated, less dramatic,  less noisy, less 'dark'.  You get rid of misunderstanding.  Of suspicion. Of espionage, too.

On the other hand, with the devil and everyone else not knowing what's on your mind,  your silence can become your power too.  It enables you to have that element of surprise. Like, catching the devil 'off-guarded', when all your past moves have been convincing him that you have totally trashed the good in you, you make that absolute opposite turn  towards God. Simply walk away from that sinful world. Just walk away. No looking back. No contemplating. No more confiding to anyone else.  Just walk away. Run back to the Confession box.  Receive the Lord Jesus through the Holy Eucharist. Immerse yourself in His holy presence exposed through the Holy Bread in the Adoration Chapel. And keep that protection coming by asking the Lord's Mother for constant intercession through the Holy Rosary.

And that, folks, is  how you can deceive the Prince of Deception. Ha!  So who says that Catholic struggle is all drama? Nope, it ain't so! It can be hell suspense, too! And, mysterious.  And, funny?  It can be anything!!!

Because the devil doesn't know what's on your mind.

And THAT IS ONE OF YOUR POWERS.

(And your mind is hack-free. Thanks to both sides observing the ' Policy on Free Will'. )

Remedy for Occasional Spiritual Amnesia

19 7 Then he took the bread, said the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body, which will be given for you; DO THIS IN MEMORY OF ME"  (Luke 22:19) God knew that without Jesus, we cannot live up to our commitment to God. He knew we will have amnesia at some point. Or worse, not just 'at some point'.  We do have amnesia every now and then! One day, we are so spiritually high. Next day, we are floating in a sea of desperation. One day, we kneel down promising to be a good Christian, Next day, we are spewing fire over anything we can imagine. We forget. No matter how often we profess our commitment to God. We do forget. We do forget. WE DO. WE DO. WE REALLY REALLY DO! AND THAT IS WHY JESUS SAID " Do this in remembrance of me."   The Holy Communion . First celebrated in the Last Supper. Continuously being done in every single Holy Catholic Mass!   So we don't forget Him. So, if someone asks you why ta

Christians and Muslims United At Last!

The Unity of Two Worlds This  is the proof that with God, even the most damaged relationship can be healed.   For all of us who have been brain-washed by media for hundreds of years, making us think that Muslims are bad people, let the Christians who have lived and co-existed with them be heard:  the Muslims who are true to their religion are very loving people.  In the same way that the Christians who are true to their religions live the teachings of Jesus by heart and are loving people too. The Christians in UAE thank  His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, for such a loving heart, allowing our highest religious leader to set his feet in UAE.  We thank also our Pope Francis for being true to his mission, reaching out and becoming the channel of peace.  If one of this two heads refused the prodding of the Holy Spirit, this crucial, memorable historical event would not have taken place.  They are like Jesus and Mary saying
