St. Ignatius taught, "Learn to see God in everything." We now can only find Him in the void we have in our empty lives. An atheist society is directed to self. God does not reside in self. The self needs God to fill the void. "GOD alone is enough." ~ St. Theresa of Avila.
The natural law, the code within us calls us to peace. Humans look for peace in loving relationships. If you don't find them in your home, family, school or church community you will search the world over looking for the peace that surpasses all understanding. The peace that only Christ can give. That is the peace that only comes from God.
Now watch the news. A young man finds peace by crashing a plane, killing himself and 150 others. Young girls look for peace in leaving the country of their birth to give themselves as sex slaves for raising children for terrorists. Partnering with monsters to create more monsters. As a culture we say, isn't that too awfully bad. Then we get used to it the way we have learned to roll with all the other inhumane and unnatural acts of our everyday existence. I know only one couple from my parents generation that divorced. We legislated no fault divorce and .. walah ..... skip to 2015 .... few couples bother to marry and many choose not to have children.
Back to the god of self.
Please pray for change, dramatic change.
"Please offer your day as a prayer for those whose hearts I am calling
to My Sacred Heart today."
