Proclaim the Word of God

The Christian life is a radical life. The Christian life is a different life. Do not simply say that you will follow the Lord. Find a way to do it. Find a way to move along on the path with the Lord. Prepare yourself for resistance both interior and exterior. Always be prepared within your soul, mind, and body for whatever will present itself to you as you journey toward God, as you journey for God. Fill your mind with peace, with calm. Move as a disciple of the Lord. Move with humility, charity, compassion, and mercy. May each movement, each step echo the commandments given to man by the Lord. May each movement, each step echo the Beatitudes given to man by the Lord Jesus Christ. Go and proclaim salvation. Go and proclaim the Kingdom of God. Keep your gaze directed to Jesus Christ. Keep your gaze directed to the Kingdom of God. Fill your heart, mind, soul with thoughts of goodness, holiness. Keep your spirit fit with unconditional love, unconditional forgiveness. Keep your spirit fit with patience, wisdom. Keep your spirit fit with love, silence, and prayer. The Christian life remains a life of reflection, a life of prayer. A Christian life begins and ends with love, love for God, love for neighbor, love for self.

Proceed. Go forward. Proclaim the Kingdom of God.

Proceed. Go forward. Proclaim the Word of God.
