Thy Kingdom Come!
Dear Friends, in Christ,
“Faced with today’s problems and disappointments, many people will try to escape from their responsibility. Escape in selfishness, escape in sexual pleasure, escape in drugs, escape in violence, escape in indifference and cynical attitudes. I propose to you the option of love, which is the opposite of escape.” ~St. John Paul II
During my seminary days in Rome, final exams were the most intense two weeks of the year. And yet, in the midst of this intensity and stress, there was always a team of seminarians baking chocolate chip cookies during our “siesta”, so we could all enjoy an A+ snack in the afternoon. They chose the option of love!
God bless,
