Christians and Catholics, even while performing acts of penance, must do so with joy because we love Christ and we want to show him our love. We want to contribute to saving souls and saving souls for all eternity. This is the most excellent work we can do, and it gives us the greatest happiness we can imagine. To save a soul for all eternity, we must live in a deep personal relationship with Christ out of love for him.
Growing in this love and having a true love for Christ also increases our courage to profess our faith. We should not be fearful or afraid of the world or of what they say about us. We do not have a complex of inferiority. No, to help us, we must be convinced of our truth in joy. This is God’s grace in courage.
This is the beautiful vocation of our Catholic faith, everyone in their own place. First, the lay people, the parents, the families, the domestic Church, the children, and the youth. Priests, of course, are called today to a special challenge to live the priesthood as true apostolic men. It is the grace of God to be true priests of Jesus and even more so for the bishops as the successors of the apostles. Together we are forming a big family, even a spiritual army. Our lady is the commander of our army. She is the destroyer of all heresies. We always have our lady with us, and so we are always convinced of the victory of our Catholic faith.
