"One strong recommendation, never engage the devil in conversation. I mean never. If you must tell the devil to depart; if you want the devil to go, you know where, tell him, but never engage him in what could even be interpreted as a friendly conversation. I have had enough experience of people foolish enough to engage in conversation with the devil who have suffered disastrous consequences as a result." - Source

ReplyDeletegood advice from fr hardon
ReplyDeletegood characterizations of the devil
BE GONE, Satan! in the name of Jesus -Amen
Belinda - Jesus has conquered the evil one - trust in Jesus - you haven't screwed up. Jesus understands little children when they yell stuff out - he protects you and keeps you safe. Pray and don't worry, as Padre Pio liked to say - and hold onto your rosary.

ReplyDeleteOh, Terry, pay no mind to fools. I enjoy your blogs and besides, blogs should be done for one's own pleasure and satisfaction.
ReplyDeleteThat last comment is good advice for you, yourself, Terry.
ReplyDeleteThanks Terry - very timely and greatly appreciated...
ReplyDeleteAnd I will be linking to this, as well as highlighting a few passages.
Sage advice, indeed!! And something I have still to learn, even after all these many, many years.
