I am eternally grateful to every person that has helped me to come closer
teaching, without adding/modifying their own ideas and opinions, and this
last thing is more difficult than we might think.
The job of priests is to be transmitters of Christ messages, but in order
to be able to do that, they themselves need to be holy, because their job is
not like any worldly job. This is why we need to pray for them.
And us; the baptized and confirmed, in order to carry out our own baptismal
promise, we need to be holy too.
"Therefore, rid yourselves of all malice and all deceit, hypocrisy, envy,
and slander of every kind. Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk,
so that by it you may grow up in your salvation, now that you have tasted
that the Lord is good."
(1 Peter 2:2)
you out of darkness into his marvelous light."
(1Peter, 2-9)
Working moment by moment every day, in an effort to become better,
kinder, less egoistic, more patient, looking for the log in our own eye instead
of focusing on the speck of sawdust in our neighbor's eye.
Praying for those that hurt us, for those that persecute us, and instead of
looking for justice in this world, looking to be just with God.
"You also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be
a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through
Jesus Christ."
(1 Peter 2:5)
Because sooner than we think, we will be face to face with Him,
time is running out.
"The end of all things is near. Therefore be alert and of sober mind so that
you may pray. Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over
a multitude of sins."
1 Peter 4, 7-8
