The last shall be first…
St. Stephen of HungaryDear Family of Mary!
In the Gospel for today, Jesus turns the values of the world on their head. The first will be last, and the last first!
“Everyone who has given up houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or lands for the sake of my name will receive a hundred times more, and will inherit eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and the last will be first.” (Mt 19:29-30)
How can we understand this? Only with the logic of God does it make sense! Our Lady is good at this logic!! Listen to her:
March 25, 1996
“Dear children!
I invite you to decide again to love God above all else.
In this time
when due to the spirit of consumerism
one forgets what it means to love
and to cherish true values,
I invite you again,
little children,
to put God in the first place in your life.
Do not let satan attract you
through material things
but, little children,
decide for God
who is freedom and love.
Choose life
and not death
of the soul,
little children,
and in this time
when you meditate
upon the suffering and death of Jesus
I invite you to decide for life
which blossomed through the Resurrection,
and that your life may be renewed today
through conversion
that shall lead you to eternal life.
Thank you for having responded to my call…”
May we learn the logic of the soul, the logic of love, the logic of holiness, the logic of God and live life to the fullest now and in eternity!
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
