You Can't Provoke, You Can't

A Beautiful Homily, A Genuine Sermon, Must Begin With The First Proclamation, With The Proclamation Of Salvation. There Is Nothing More Solid, Deep And Sure Than This Proclamation.

Holy Week Challenges Us To Step Outside Ourselves So As To Attend To The Needs Of Others: Those Who Long For A Sympathetic Ear, Those In Need Of Comfort Or Help. We Should Not Simply Remain In Our Own Secure World, That Of The Ninety-nine Sheep Who Never Strayed From The Fold, But We Should Go Out, With Christ, In Search Of The One Lost Sheep, However Far It May Have Wandered.

God’s Love Is Free. He Asks For Nothing In Return; All He Wants Is For His Love To Be Accepted.

Men, To Exist, To Become Complete And Mature, Need To Feel The Joy Of Fatherhood. When A Man Does Not Have This Desire, Something Is Missing In This Man, It Is Like An Incomplete Life: A Life That Stops Half Way. The Grace Of Fatherhood; Of Giving Life To Others, Of Pastoral Paternity, Of Spiritual Paternity Is A Gift From God.

Challenges Exist To Be Overcome! Let Us Be Realists, But Without Losing Our Joy, Our Boldness And Our Hope-filled Commitment. Let Us Not Allow Ourselves To Be Robbed Of Missionary Vigour!
