From The Friars eLetter: A True Life




Jesus reminds us that the only true life is one that is given away. It is a life free of self-obsession and of being overly concerned with what other people think. It is a life indifferent to the current trends of political correctness and popular opinion and one that is zealous for the truth that God proclaims about Himself and humanity. It is a life not measured by the tiny instruments of men, but by the infinite space of God’s self-giving and unconditional love.
