30th Sunday. The Happy Priest: I am a Sinner, You are a Sinner. - Living Faith - Home & Family - Catholic Online

Our self esteem is not dependent on whether others love us and tell us what we want to hear or the alcohol that gives us a temporary high or the stuff we buy or get that make us look good. No, it's something more but quite simple. It's that deep longing within that calls us to the knowledge of God's great love for us. God who knows our deepest and darkest secrets and our worst sins and yet he still loves us and longs deeply to be one with us, united for all eternity. We must make that choice We must touch that part of us that has this deep longing for union with God. Unless we choose union now while still on earth, how can there be union in eternity? Our hearts must be right with God! When we attend Mass it must be more than obligation. When we receive Eucharist it must be more than habit. We must empty ourselves of all attachments in order for God to fill us with his presence and great love. We must open ourselves up, let go of our will and freely choose full and complete union with our Creator, Redeemer and True Lover - God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Be not afraid for his love is greater than all our desires. God bless!!
