15 Promises

[Tim_c]

I can’t recite the rosary, I always fall asleep. no promises for me. pooty.

Maybe you should pray the rosary at a time of day when you are more alert. If I wait till bedtime I usually end up falling asleep too, but my grandma used to say that if you fall asleep while praying the Rosary the angels finish it for you.

Thanks Stylteralmaldo,
I was getting a headache and was bewildered about the whole topic.
Thanks for step-by-step responding to my post.
Am I predesined to enter Heaven/Hell? Since God’s predestination wins out, is this why by doing man’s will good things come out of bad situations because it eventually will lead to God’s predestination?

You’re not predestined in the sense that God wills that you enter hell - he doesn’t will damnation for anyone. He doesn’t want anything bad for anyone. He always gives sufficient help in every circumstances that if we choose to take advantage of it we’ll make good.

Remember also that people can have every advantage and still stuff up - happens equally often. He doesn’t twist things around to that end, though, we do that all on our own.

But he does know the good and bad you will do and what end you will make, and what your destiny will be.
That’s omniscience for you - don’t expect to ever properly understand it.
