Not Irritated

Tuesday May 21, 2019
What bothers you or makes you lose happiness? Is it that things do not go your way? Or when you are insulted?
The love that Christ had for you. The love that went to a cross was not easily irritated by our sins. Shouldn't we love without finding things annoying?

Love Only Jesus
Monday May 20, 2019
Monday May 20, 2019
Do you want God because He is God, or because you crave something? When we seek God to do something for us instead of wanting only to please God, we do not love God as we ought. Love truly does not seek selfish desires above just being loving. If you have to have God accept you as you are, with what you crave to be then you do not love God as God.
We do not think about marrying another person and insisting that they give us our way. Instead, when a man loves a woman and seeks to marry her, he gives himself to love her completely and only. How can we not live that love for God alone?

Love as He Loved

Sunday May 19, 2019
Would anyone know you are a Christian if you said nothing about your faith? If not, is it because you do not love as Jesus did? This is the one way He told you and commanded you that would allow the world to recognize that you follow Him.

Abandoned to Love

Saturday May 18, 2019
Is it possible to love anything if you do not seek only it? Too often we want things our way at the cost of what is truly our heart's desire. We want two masters instead of one Lord. But, God calls us to an undivided love of Him that will transform us.

Seeking Only God

Friday May 17, 2019
When you are in love does anything matter but the object of your affections? I would doubt that anything would be more important to you than the thing you love, whether it is a person or thing. So when we truly love God with all our heart, mind, soul and being we gain Him instead of losing Him by gaining the created world.

Humble Love
Thursday May 16, 2019
Thursday May 16, 2019
What are you really? Do you see yourself as something great or important? Or do you realize that you are a creature or sinner saved by grace?
When we love God properly, we have a real proper understanding of who and what we are. Such knowledge stirs us to love God in the reality of truth.

Prayer: Communicating Love
Wednesday May 15, 2019
Wednesday May 15, 2019
If there is one thing that is key to any relationship it is communication. Without some form of understanding what the other thinks and believes, no love or trust is possible. For that reason, the most important part of our relationship with God is the prayer that unites us with Him and makes race possible.

Communion of Love
Tuesday May 14, 2019
Tuesday May 14, 2019
How often do you go to Mass and receive communion like you are punching a time clock? Is it really love for God that comes late to Mass, right before the gospel, and departs as soon as communion has been received? I am sure you would not think that anyone really cared about you if they only listened to some of what you have to say- like the gospel only at Mass- or leave once they got whatever you were providing them - like communion at Mass. So why treat God so unimportantly? Why only come to Mass and leave like He is only a thing to be used?
If we truly understood what the Mass and communion really was, we would act differently. We would love Him who so loved us. We would desire it even when we were doing other things.

Renewed by Love
Monday May 13, 2019
Monday May 13, 2019
Why should we think about the things of God? In order to know Him better, of course. How else can we expect to be in love with a God we do not know?
While scripture can be a good place to begin learning about God, we must also learn about Him by doing as well. Going to Mass, living the works of mercy, prayer and just examining our lives are steps by which we can be renewed by love and made fit saints for heaven.

Do you hear the voice of your Shepard? If not, how are you His? Do you live the way that shows you are lead by Him? If not, why do you profess a lie?
