The proper response of Jesus.
When someone reminds you of something, how do you react? Jesus also responds. Someone said to Jesus, “Get out of here, go away” “(Luke 13:31) …?
There is no place in faith for risk, underestimation, sinful calculation, and so on. It is necessary not to lose the right judgment, perspective, and persevere in the good to the end. However, such a life is not impossible. The Christian is convinced of the timeliness of Jesus’s words: “My yoke is pleasant, and my burden is light” (Mt 11:30). Therefore, it is not enough to decide for God’s kingdom once in a lifetime, and only once to remember it once a day, but not to lose sight of the soul in all the duties and events of the day and to have a fixed gaze on God and to fulfill his will.
God’s love is so great that not only does he seek the sinner again, he gives him a new grace to begin again, but he goes after the sinner as a “good shepherd” behind a stray sheep and opens his arms like a “good father” when he greets the prodigal son. Let’s remember St. Paul. Jesus is waiting for the persecutor at the gate of Damascus. St. While listening to St. Ambrose’s disc plow with entirely different motives, Augustine found his God traveled from Carthage to Milan. St. Magdalena of Cortana found God looking at the decaying body of her illegal husband. And others in similar situations and others when they accepted God’s voice and no longer renounced it but protected it as their treasure.
Behold, as it began from St. Edit Stein, a convert from Judaism. In Frankfurt, Edit met her girlfriend. They decided to see the city. She was most impressed by the cathedral. What stuck in her mind? It was not the beauty of architecture, sculpture, or paintings, but an abandoned woman who, immersed in prayer, knelt in a church. For India, this is the first revelation of God present in Catholic churches. He will say about it later: “It was something completely new for me. I will never forget that.”
We realize that if we genuinely seek God, we protect the treasure of our faith. Not everyone finds him at the same age for the role of his life. St. Dominik Sávio, the patron saint of ministers and boys, found him on the day of his first St. communion when you wrote in your prayer book, “I’d rather die than sin.” And a rascal on the cross in the last hour of his life, when he turned to Jesus with a plea, “Jesus, remember me when you come to of his kingdom “(Luke 23:42). We all have to work on the role of our lives.
