Be the Fire of Divine Love!

Be the source of true peace in your world!

Sunday blessings!

People talk about peace, but there cannot be peace without justice. Our Gospel reading today, St. Luke 12:49-53, highlights this truth. We will focus on the following section:

“Do you think that I have come to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but rather division.

Luke 12:51

It might seem strange that Jesus speaks about causing division instead of peace, but listen— the peace we often think exists in the world is an illusion! Many situations people live in are far from peaceful. When we judge our family or neighbors, we are not at peace with them. So, when we follow Jesus, we may not always find peace with everyone.

Our peace is a peace of Divine Love!

The peace Jesus provides is an inner peace. When we have that peace, we reflect it from deep within our hearts.

However, this inner peace can cause division among those unable or unwilling to share this love. Today, I will share the story of St. Lawrence the Martyr. When Emperor Valerian inquired about the riches of the Church, Lawrence responded by presenting the poor of Rome. 

St. Lawrence was murdered for doing this! St. Lawrence followed his Savior and died for true peace.

May we have the true peace of Jesus and say to the world by how we live, that without justice, there cannot be peace!

Be the change you want to see in your world!

Sunday Blessings!

Pax. The Hermit of Peace.

Live Love!

Live Jesus’ Commandments!

“Whoever has My commandments and observes them is the one who loves Me. And whoever loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love them and reveal Myself to them.”
John 14:21

Love is an action word!

Love is such a huge concept and can be miss leading if it is not concrete in the way we treat each other. God concretely made the universe and this was an act of love. However, we may choose to not love and destroy the creation, including ourselves.

God entered into the world that God created to model for us what love means. Jesus is that model of love that God wants. However, this love challenged how the culture of sin and death controlled human relations, and those in power nailed Love, Jesus, to the Cross.

But Love Wins!

Love could not be kept in the tomb! God will not stay dead!

Love Wins!

If we want to be on the winning side, then we must keep the Commandments! The Commandments are God’s Love in concrete form! When we keep the Commandments, we are in God! And here is where True Peace Reigns!

Today we celebrate in the USA, Mother’s Day. This is one of the most important days of the year. Why? Simply because Mothers teach us how to love, and in doing so, brings us into the great Love Affair with God. Mothers keeps us growing and loving, and protects us from being overwhelmed by the hate in the world! Mothers create the home that we carry with us!

Have an amazing Mother’s Day!

Pax.
