Thy Kingdom Come!
Dear Friends, in Christ,
“Divine gift-love in the man enables him to love what is not naturally lovable: lepers, criminals, enemies, morons, the sulky, the superior and the sneering.” CS Lewis
I know a “Grease Monkey” owner who goes out of this way to hire ex-convicts to give them a second chance. Several of these guys have come up to me during an oil change, to ask me about my Faith, to talk “Jesus” and simply to receive a little love. I don’t know their backgrounds or their past crimes, but thanks to this shop owner, their dignity is clearly being restored and I noticed sincere smiles on their faces.
God bless,
Fr. Michael Sliney, LC
