Jesus would have died for a single person, a single sinner. We must become holy not because we want to feel that we are holy, but because Christ must be capable of living His life fully in us. I pray that each one of you may be holy, and thus may spread the love of God everywhere you go. May His light of truth be in the life of each person, in such a way that God may continue to love the world through you and me. Christ will not ask what quantity of labor we have accomplished, but how much love we have put into it.
Many people are spiritually poor.
The spiritual poverty that prevails in Europe and America is a heavy burden. In these countries, it is very hard to pin a meaning on the love of God. With their courage, they truly represent the hope of the world. They have taught us in a different way to love God, by bringing us to do all that we can to help them. We must never get into the habit of being preoccupied with the future.
