Nights of Service In Eagle Pass

For those of you who are following this blog, the Lord has asked me to share his message with his church. In today's Gospel we saw a continuation of the first shall be last and sent away with embarrassment while those who are last shall be brought to the best table by the Lord. As I was driving back from Eagle Pass this weekend our Lord kept giving bursts of the message of service. In prayer he tells me, "tell my sheep that I want them to serve me." I think this is imperative because while the Gospel spoke of this message we as Catholics more over Christians should take this message and make it the focus of our lives. The question of how can i help you, in terms of helping in anyway our fellow Christians, is most relevant as well as the point of how does the Lord want me to help others in my Family, Church, etc. Along the highway back from Eagle Pass, Texas this theme of service kept going through my thoughts. As a person in study for the Diaconate and also having a vocation in the married life, i cant help it wonder have i served my wife, children and most importantly my Lord Jesus Christ well? Certainly there have been some high movements where i feel that yes, I have served well and there are other times where I feel that I have failed. Regardless, our lives as Catholic Christians are judged in the end by not faith alone but by works and as we continue this journey faith it is our responsibility to execute a service to our Lord in all facets of our lives. Just some though this week.......
