Psalm 119: 57 Lord, I love your commands.I have said, O LORD, that my part is to keep your words. The law of your mouth is to me more precious than thousands of gold and silver pieces.

Do we love the Lord’s commands or do we spurn them? Do we follow the word of God or do we follow the secular world? What is the light that guides our understanding? If I think the world is wiser than the Gospel then I am not a disciple. Please listen to these words of instruction from Pope Leo XIII. They are good for your soul, for your family, and for society.

“No one should be excluded from Our charity. We commend to your fidelity and piety those unhappy persons who, carried away by the heat of passion, and being utterly indifferent to their salvation, live wickedly together without the bond of lawful marriage. Let your utmost care be exercised in bringing such persons back to their duty; and, both by your own efforts and by those of good men who will consent to help you, strive by every means that they may see how wrongly they have acted; that they may do penance; and that they may be induced to enter into a lawful marriage according to the Catholic rite.”
