Who shall take refuge in the name of the LORD - December 14

Which of the two did his father's will? Matthew 21:31

Is there any part of your life that you think would make a great parable for someone else to hear? Have you done something wonderful for someone? Has someone done something wonderful for you? Have you had a prodigal moment? Have you had a “cast the first stone” moment?

Throughout our lives we have each made many, many decisions. We have obeyed the rules and broken the rules. We try to be saints but we are always sinners.

Being a sinner is natural, is organic for all human beings. No one is immune from sin.

The goal of our Christian lives involves both learning and applying the principles and precepts of goodness, holiness, and kindness. We must learn how to be God like in our thoughts and actions.

How illustrious and how illuminating a Christian life can be.

It is good to study and follow the customs and traditions of a religion. There is diligence, diversity within the parishioners. There is honor and happiness within each Mass. There is glory! There is love. There is admiration, adoration. There is congratulation. There is commiseration.

Each day of a faithful Christian’s life is an attempt to be God-like, to follow in the foot steps of Jesus Christ.
