We are thirsting for God’s Guidance, God’s Providence and Spirit.  In the letter to the Galatians were reminded we “were baptized into Christ and clothed … with Christ.”

Jesus asks His Apostles and He asks us, “Who do you say that I am?”   

That is the single most important question you will ever answer!  Jesus is true God, true Man; the Word made flesh to guide us to His Heavenly Home.   

The 2^nd most important question you will ever answer is “What does Christ look like?

“Christ looks like the homeless person who we see on the streets.

Christ looks like are sisters/brothers in (Syria or Nigeria).

Christ looks like the pregnant 17 year old trying to determine what to do, where to turn.

Christ looks like the gay couple coming to church.

Christ looks like the divorced catholic waiting for an annulment.

Christ looks like the alcoholic and the addicted.

Christ looks like your dying loved one who was just anointed.

Christ looks like the baby who watches the face of the priest or deacon as they pour baptismal water over their head.

Christ looks like the faces of the couples who come before (the altar to marry).   

Christ looks like you and like me!  (Hungry and You Fed Me: Cycle C)

St. Francis deSales teaches us to “Live in such a way that you give proof of God’s Presence.”

What can we do to “live Jesus”?

1.    Preserve more faithfully in your prayer life.

2.    Pray to the Holy Spirit for guidance in your personal lives and the life of our nation.

3.    Persist in living a life that gives witness to God’s love and His Son’s Way!

May God Be Praised!
