Blessed When we Live on Both the Vertical and Horizontal Planes Recognizing God Who Created All Souls!

 

“Politics has become so all-possessive of life, that by impertinence it thinks the only philosophy a person can hold is the right or the left. This question puts out all the lights of religion so they can call all the cats gray. It assumes that man lives on a purely horizontal plane, and can move only to the right or the left. Had we eyes less material, we would see that there are two other directions where a man with a soul may look: the vertical directions of “up” or “down.”

— Fulton J. Sheen, 1895-1979

This Catholic bishop is one of the most renowned clergyman of all modern times. He won an Emmy Award for Most Outstanding Television Personality from his TV show, he was featured on the cover of Time Magazine, and he became one of the most influential Catholics of the 20th century, and likely still is today. All he said in the last century is so apropos today. He spoke and told it like it was. He was sometimes harsh, but he was truthful and upright. Today is a perfect example of the polarization of the country and world today. They make it all about politics and sides. They forget about God and living in Spirit. We need to live in Spirit to seek what is above, not of this world. We can see how the government and elected, the so called leaders and powers that be have continued to destroy our country and world with their greed, corruption, selfishness, and mediocrity. We have so much debt today as a country and society, due to real slaves of Satan who are not fiscally responsible raping its citizens and hurting our future and leading to wars and so much division. Humans can make it all gray, making so many excuses for all the waste, debt, and problems. It is sad. We need to pray, to look up, to live in Spirit and look up to God, pray, give thanks, count our blessings and find strength in God, He is our refuge and rock. We need to seek a soul of peace to have a world of peace. We are Citizens of Heaven, not of this world, that is our ultimate goal to hold up high Jesus and seek Him first! Live in the Spirit!
