The First Step to Sainthood: Receiving God’s Love

from Ad Jesum per Mariam · host Ad Jesum per Mariam

The First Step to Sainthood: Receiving God’s Love Today’s Homily reflects on the feast of St. Andrew Kim and the 103 Korean martyrs, . . . . . . who gave their lives out of love for God. Their sacrifice did not begin with faith or even love for God, but with first receiving God’s love. Using a demonstration with an empty cup, the Homily illustrates that we cannot give what we do not have: only by opening our hearts to receive God’s love can we share it with others. Many fail because they close their hearts, coming to church but not allowing themselves to be filled. The conviction that “God loves me” transforms life and enables us to love others selflessly. Nothing . . . neither persecution nor suffering . . . can separate us from God’s love. The Gospel warns against being ashamed of Christ; those who truly receive His love will not hide their faith. The faithful are urged to open their hearts, receive God’s love, and boldly share it, even in the face of trials. Listen to this Meditation Media.
