Kevin (continued)
I truly admired and respected Evelyn and people like her for going up to the Altar but then crossing her (their) arms on her (their) chest (letting the Priest know she (they) was (are) not in a State of Grace to receive Jesus's body in the Holy Eucharist).  When Joe goes up to the Altar, prays first before Jesus' image of Divine Mercy without the intention (contrite and humble heart) of not sinning against purity/chastity anymore and then receives Jesus' body in the Holy Eucharist, Jesus cannot work in and through Joe. I believe with my heart and soul that Joe can humbly pray on his knees before Jesus in Adoration of the Most Holy Sacrament, ask our Blessed Mother Mary to pray for him and his wife (by praying the Rosary) to live chaste (while he seeks help from a Priest with regards to obtaining an annulment - his first wife was not Catholic - probably did not enter the marriage knowing it is indissoluble), ask others to pray for him and go to daily Mass (continued)
