Wisdom Wednesday

Work Out Your Salvation A condensed version of a Fathers of Mercy retreat

Homily - Part VI

God wants to satisfy your needs even more than you want them satisfied.  The Holy Eucharist is the source and summit of all Christian Faith.  The Eucharist is what it signifies.  Thus it is the highest sacrament.  The other sacraments effect the grace they signify.

Pray for wisdom just as much as faith.  Doubt about the faith can be a part of your daily cross.  Do you make your whole life a living sacrifice?  You do so in receiving the Eucharist and Holy Penance.  You should give God something instead of asking for something from Him.  Daily prayers can be offered in sacrificial love.  The Sacred Liturgy is for the worship of the Divine Majesty.  Jesus gave Hmself for love of you and in obedience to God the Father.  Ask for sacrificial wisdom.  Offer all to God in a day - good and bad.  Work out your salvation with self-knowledge and love.
