1st time: At Mass this morning, the priest told us a story about another priest who, during one very hot Sunday Mass in a church that had no air conditioning, got up for his homily and said, "You think it is hot in here? It's hotter in Hell", and then sat down.
2nd time: A short while later I was walking out of the grocery store and a woman, who I don't know, was walking out with me and said, "Sure is hot out here. I think it's a reminder of how hot Hell is going to be if we don't straighten up", and then she walked away.
I really can't take the heat; maybe I should go to confession soon!
Just thought I'd share that with y'all :)
I live in Louisiana, and the heat has been a bigger motivator than most people know to make sure that my life is on the right path. Confession rocks!
ReplyDeleteLove the link you left on Catholic Icing's facebook page! I can't wait to have more time to click around! I posted the link myself today to try and help spread the word. Great site!
ReplyDeleteI think God does speak to us in little ways all the time. It is crazy that 2 people said something to you about how hot hell is in one day!
