"Young people of every continent, do not be afraid to be the saints of the new millennium! Be contemplative, love prayer, be coherent with your faith and generous in the service of your brothers and sisters, be active members of the Church and builders of peace. To succeed in this demanding project of life, continue to listen to His word, draw strength from the Sacraments especially the Eucharist and Penance. The Lord wants you to be intrepid apostles of his Gospel and builders of a new humanity." St. Pope John Paul II
Do not be afraid!
This is what we were made for!
We talk about wanting a better future for generations to come but no one knows where to begin.
It begins with you and me.
We cannot change the world or the future without first changing ourselves.
We have to be brave.
We have to do the hard thing.
We need to do the things that make us better people.
That make us want to be saints!
Everything else in life is not eternal.
Want to make a difference?
"Be saints! You weren't made to fit in. You were born to stand out." Jim Caviezel
Live for eternity!
Young people and families "of every continent" are in good hands with their patron saint! To me, this post reads like a map and a prayer. Amen!
