We are given intangible abilities for the sake of survival. Women, in particular, are graced with this. They very often sense that something in a person or situation is wrong. They may perceive a different fault or threat than that which is present, but their caution flag has been raised for...

Prayers ascending! You have good help. In my experience, time spent in adoration of the divine Physicians is priceless.

Talk to the local priest. I sense much devotion in your words, but also possibly some scruples. Consider: when you have the catechism as a sure guide, and Father and the religious education person as well, you can rest assured that you will have excellent guidance. Being faithful to the...
