And also in the way we dress, dance and behave. Hollywood is not real. Fakebook is not real. They are the devil's playground creating false images of normal behavior. Fakebook is a bubble world of fantasy and keyboard warriors. Television is the same.

Oh, dear Andrea, don't let the enemy bring you thoughts of discouragement that is his way."Do not be discouraged by the evis you see in the world... you do not know the good God will bring out of them." St Joh of the Cross.I like to dwell on Phillipians. 4:8 should I get rocked by the violence in our world. . Especially "whatever is pure, what ever is lovely...dwell on these things..." praise God and fill your little corner of the world with all the ❤️ you can offer with His grace. ❤️Peace...

Thank you most sincerely for this magnificent prayer. God may your will be done, now and always. Oh, Lord, bless those who bless others and who offer their prayers and sacrafices for others in need. Amen.

Dear Mr. Enrico,In case your son is still in need of work, as a far-less-than-ideal resort, would he prayerfully consider working as a corrections officer? There is a nation-wide shortage of corrections officers in the US and the eligibility tends to be minimal. It is though often a government job with health insurance and other benefits. The job is hazardous and poses great spiritual-warfare challenges. I was a corrections officer for over two years. You and your son are welcome to contact me and I will be happy to share my thoughts and experience: [email protected] God bless you and your family! Praise be to Jesus Christ!Yours, in Christ,Kuang

We all have a need to fullfill things. When we start things we like to finish things. Reaching our goal gives great satisfaction. But finishing things can also be hard.…

Pray anywhere
I have prayed the Divine Office for many years. [...] When I discovered this app, all of my concerns of ribbon placement were gone. Having the Divine Office on my phone is absolutely the best thing ever! The sense of community is so wonderful as I see how many others are praying at the same time as myself. [...] Now I don’t need to turn a lamp on as I use to when I used the Office printed volumes. It is such a blessing to have the Divine Office in my pocket. Many times I’ve been sitting in a doctor’s waiting room at the time of Mid Morning prayer. It is so calming of any worries to pull out my phone, open the app, and be able to connect with Our Lord at those times I need Him most. I don’t use the audio version much but the few times I’ve traveled, it is so comforting to not have to skip the Office in order to keep my hands on the steering wheel and my eyes in the road. I recommend this app to friends all the time, especially to those who’d like to pray the Office but feel intimidated by the size of the printed version and getting the ribbons placed properly. Thank you for developing this app. It is my constant companion.

Super helpful
I have only been introduced to the divine office prayers two times before I downloaded this app. It is laid out in a way that is very easy to understand, and there is an audio option that will say all of the prayers. There is an option to set reminders throughout the day. I got this because, I didn’t really know how to say the divine office, and I didn’t know what prayer books I needed to purchase to begin. During the shutting down of churches for covid :( this has been a wonderful resource. One cool feature is that you can tap on the “in prayer” link and see little specks of light around the globe lighting up in the area that someone else is praying. It’s so cool to see everyone praying with you and is a powerful reminder that we are all connected and unified in Christ’s mystical body.

Praying with the whole Church
I love this app! Since it is now free and no longer for sale, I made sure to donate the price of buying it, and then some. I have loved the Liturgy of the Hours for 25 years. But I always felt alone when I prayed it. With this app, I am connected to others! I use it in conjunction with my printed Christian Prayer volume. On other days, I cannot get to my book but with the app, I always have the prayers available. I have the printed calendar with my book, but I actually rely on this more for placing my ribbons. The audio is wonderful!! I often read out loud with it. I love that I can change the speed of the audio! I have found that 1.3 is good for me. Thank you, thank you, thank you for this app. Thank you for still supporting it. Thank you for updating the “one God,” to just “God” change in the prayers. My book still throws me off but your app is right! Highly recommend this. Many friends have it. THANK YOU!!
