When it comes to spiritually healing, you may think new age spells and incantations don't come with spiritual attacks.

Did someone use vodou against you? Did the witchcraft you payed for online (let's be honest, if you pay for anything spiritual, you might as well start buying salvation) have you in a spiritual chokehold, debt, or demand your firstborn child? Did any of your friends curse the front door of your home? Have you been wasting time tracking the constellations to get that job? Do you have 10 different contingency plans to make sure your will works out? Gotta knock on wood to keep the jinx away? Convinced that, if God is so good, why doesn't He stop evil Himself (only to participate in evil and be unknowingly covered by His grace)? 😖

If you or a loved one relates to any of these symptoms and activities, you may be under a lie faceted by the devil! 😨😨😨!

According to the Holy Bible, you may be eligible for compensation when you don't get that healing and you end up getting worse. ☺️

Joel 2:25

And I will repay you for the years which the locust, and the beetle, and the mildew, and the caterpillar consumed: my great strength which I sent upon you.

Here in Catholicism, our faith is set on a rock, that is, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To qualify, you need to: confess that Jesus the Christ of Nazareth is God, the Way, the Truth, and the Life, died in your place, and rose again on the third day, so that you may have the gift of His kingdom, forever AND ever. 😇🥳

Take this, weary spiritual travellers, your free gift of salvation, brought to you 🫵 by our Lord and Savior, Jesus. The Christ. Of Nazareth. 🤗

⚔️Here's your sword against the devil ⚔️

Deuteronomy 31:8

The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid, do not be discouraged.”

Luke 17:6

But the Lord said: "If you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you may say to this mulberry tree, 'Be uprooted, and be transplanted into the sea.' And it would obey you.

Isaiah 49:15

Can a woman forget her infant, so as not to take pity on the child of her womb? But even if she would forget, still I [the Lord] shall never forget you.

Psalm 30:15-16

But I have hoped in you, O Lord. I said, "You are my God."

My fate is in your hands. Rescue me from the hand of my enemies and from those who are persecuting me.

Psalm 23:4

Though I walk through the valley of shadow and death, I will fear no evil for You are with me

Joshua 1:9

Behold, I am instructing you. Be strengthened, and be steadfast. Do not dread, and do not fear. For the Lord your God is with you in all things, wherever you may go."

I'm trying to make Catholicism cohesive, short and sweet while the world still spins.

Image Description: An illustration of a shrouded figure similar to a madonna is underwater, with sharks, rays, and fish swimming near it. Corals and anemones grow on the figure, and its facial features seem worn away.

Mother Mary is such a cutie patootie

[autisticandcatholic]

heard a trumpet outside when I went to check on a bird at midnight that kept chirping and singing, love God, love your neighbor, confess your sins, and do them no more.

[autisticandcatholic]

yes you can pray during the songs you like, how else is God supposed to know who you are?

[autisticandcatholic]

I do this thing when I wake up and I mash a bunch of prayers off the top of my head so today it sounded like

"in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit... today is the today the Lord has made I will rejoice and be glad in it.. oh most Sacred Heart of Jesus, foundation of every blessing I adore you, I love you and with lively sorrow for all my sins I offer you this poor heart of mine... O good Jesus hear me, inside your wounds shelter me... amen"

Can I just say that I greatly appreciate how all the Christians of Tumblr have coagulated into one big group (despite being vastly outnumbered on the site) and at this point even have enough cohesion to achieve relative notoriety and nobody else on the site knows what to do with us

[she-is-amused]

Heal the Schism for the bit.

[clawedandcute]

ok but actually it is both hilarious and sweet how well different denominations get along on tumblr

[jesuswarriordaughter]

I met people of different denominations here before I ever met them in real life, and I was kinda shocked to see how much animosity there is in real life... Got paintballed by someone from our local catholic church, texted my catholic online best friend to vent about it three minutes later.

Rant about Catholic Instagram situation

If you’re on Catholic Instagram (as I unfortunately am sometimes) you may know about a dude named catholicsam, who is, frankly, an arrogant and insufferable asshole. And like, I don’t find it useful to make a post ranting about how much I dislike somebody, in general. But guys like him are the problem with modern Catholicism. It’s not progressive Catholics, or Catholics whose primary “progressive” concern is really just basic empathy for the poor and war-torn and calling out systemic injustices and greed. It’s people like catholicsam who find it more useful to bash gay people and debate whether or not KISSING your partner before marriage is a sin than to actually use their faith to lift anyone up or to bring any meaningful kind of unity to Christianity. You can curate your online image and aesthetic around your faith, you can post edits about Jesus and post about how the pope has “aura,” and you can speak authoritatively on Instagram as a layperson, but none of that is worth shit if you’re doing it out of pride instead of compassion. If your “faith-based” content is centered around taking other people’s views (and sometimes jokes) disingenuously so you can exercise some kind of rude superiority over them, you’re not doing what Jesus or the church itself teaches you to do.

I don’t really care about the kissing discourse. It’s pretty apparent at face value how pointless it is to engage with. But as far as catholicsam’s homophobia and transphobia, I know that no one will be able to convince people like him that they’re wrong about “homosexual acts” or “mutilating your body” being sinful, and no pope has actually said that they aren’t; but they have encouraged kindness towards queer individuals, which means that getting online to put them in their place, so to speak, is in itself sinful.

Obviously, I’m a queer Catholic, and I don’t believe there is anything at all sinful about queerness. But there’s no point in giving my arguments as to why because people like catholicsam have decided that being Catholic on the internet is not about kindness or compassion or open-mindedness; it’s about telling people to “submit to Rome” and using the license of Catholicism to voice a deep-rooted egotism.

God bless the queers this pride month.

God, turn your loving eyes towards all those who are forced to pretend to be something they're not. To all those people who are mistreated because of who they are. To those still too scared to pursue you fully because of how they've been treated by people misusing your name.

Bring your everlasting peace to those struggling with dysphoria, oppression, HIV, discrimination, homelessness, and isolation because of their LGBTQ+ identity.

God loves his children, and that includes all of them.
