Pope Francis. Do not be content to a mediocre life

LET’S SHAKE OFF THAT MEDIOCRITY FROM US AND
AIM FOR A GREATER LOVE FOR JESUS! AIM TO BE HOLY!

Thanks Pope Francis for encouraging us to aim for a greater love for Jesus and thus holiness (or sanctity)!

But for this to materialize, we need to REALLY WANT AND DESIRE TO GROW IN LOVE WITH CHRIST AND LIVE A HOLY LIFE for only then shall we put the MEANS to obtain God’s grace through:

  • DAILY PRAYER,
  • Frequent reception of SACRAMENTS,
  • SACRIFICE or MORTIFICATION and
  • the daily interior STRUGGLE to LIVE CHRIST’S VIRTUES daily for HOLINESS IS NOTHING BUT THE IDENTIFICATION WITH JESUS CHRIST BY LIVING THE VIRTUES HE LIVED AND TAUGHT DURING HIS LIFE ON EARTH

May God help us to correspond to His grace through the
intercession of Our Lady and St. Joseph!

Fr. Rolly A.
