At the evening of life, we shall be judged on our love
…in the end, the only thing that will prove to have really mattered in this life is how we have loved. It sounds easy, but how many of us actually know how to love?
What do you fear about your vocation?
One of the biggest fears of young people today is the fear of commitment. We can be afraid of commitment for many reasons – the fear of missed opportunities, the fear that it won’t work out, the fear of being trapped, etc.
Do I know you?
If having encountered Jesus is not the reason for your being Catholic, “Catholicism” is just another “ism” for you, just one socio-cultural group among many.
Why we call priests “Father”
The measure of a priest is not his outward appearance, knowledge, eloquence, efficiency, or even personal piety.
Who are you living for?
The truth is, all of us – no matter what our vocation is – are called to love God with all our heart, soul, and mind. Priests and consecrated persons don’t necessarily do this better than anyone else.
Whose are you?
We belong to the one whose image we bear. Sometimes we can fall into thinking that my vocation, what God is perhaps calling me to, is something other than who I am.
What if you opened the invitation?
Imagine if you opened that invitation to the royal wedding. What do you think you might find?
What’s your place in the vineyard?
If you’ve been paying attention to the past two Sundays, this Sunday is the third time Jesus gives a parable having to do with a vineyard.
Do I have a choice?
God really does give us a choice. And God even gives us the freedom to say No. The real question is – what is it that we are really choosing by our Yes or No?
Nobody ever asked me!
Often in our lives, the simplest things can be the most life changing. In today’s Gospel, the reply of the people standing around in marketplace is – nobody ever asked us.
