The more I've lived the Gospel in my own everyday life, the more it has become natural for me to tell the truth no matter how embarrassing it can be...

One Sunday morning my friends and I planned to use the day to invite young people for an event. Two of us were going to a parish 45 minutes away from our place.

During a very busy week, my husband asked me to do a couple of things. They were simple things, but I put them off for what I felt were valid reasons.

One evening in January, I arrived at the airport and began the two hour trip home. It was dinnertime so at a drive-through restaurant I got some coffee, a cheeseburger and fries.
