HUMILITY AND FORTITUDE:
JESUS AND HIS CATHOLIC CHURCH ARE REAL.
Humbly Receive.
Faithfully Live.
Never Give Up.
"WHAT IS THIS LIFE?"
You ever ask that question?
There's a lot coming at us in this earthly life and for me, "what is this life?" is a question that naturally comes up often and I think it makes sense as a way to reorient to the nature of reality and see how daily life and all that is before us fits in.
I have found that it's the simple, deeper questions that really matter. And the way we answer those questions profoundly shape our lives.
I'm not gonna hide it - I have come to see, understand, and experience that Jesus and His Catholic Church are real; and to enter into reality on that level truly is like finding the treasure worth giving everything for.
Yes, there are a ton of scandalous examples of people who are wearing the Catholic name tag and are living in opposition to the teachings of Jesus and His Catholic Church and make it all seem like a farce. Sadly, that is true and needs to be noted.
There are also many who are deeply anti-Catholic and are very much invested in it all being false so they can keeping on living as they wish. They have blinders up against anything that will crack their comfort.
But I also believe there are many people living where I used to be - somewhat open, somewhat customizing their own spirituality, and very much lost and confused whether they realize it or not.
What if Jesus and His Catholic Church are actually real?
What would that mean for your life?
I never expected it to be true, but about 25 years ago I was smacked in the face with the reality of it and I humbly entered in. Like the Pevensie children entering the wardrobe and finding themselves in Narnia, I saw there is so much more than I realized or could even imagine.
Push away the bad examples and the antis and look to the lives of the Catholic saints. See the very good fruits of the lives of those who humbly received and more and more faithfully lived the reality of Jesus of His Catholic Church with authentic love. We are made to go that way.
Come, Lord Jesus. Help me to see and enter into all You have for me.
