".. . Our faith is not based on a series of "you have to do this ... and you have to do that ..." but finds its foundation on a listing of bliss that we can truly experience and live.
Too often, for check out our lives as believers and disciples of Christ, let us to the famous 10 commandments, if they were the only tape measure.
Not that the 10 Commandments are still valid and important, but is in the words of Jesus and in his life we \u200b\u200bare called to mirror.
I say this because for many people the Christian faith seems now not to say anything. "
... I have a true spirituality? Or deep down they are apparently linked to many religious practices, when in fact remain quite superficial and materialistic? And risk myself with my spiritual poverty and inconsistencies, to become an obstacle to the internal growth of others? "
"The problem is not to have a spirituality, and not even have a faith.
The real problem, in my opinion, is not notice most of them or risk losing .
The trouble is being so full of things to do (even religious, parochial ...) to forget the deep search of bliss.
Material wealth is really a mess, as Jesus says
If in fact the desire to have, possess and control There goes the demand for good interior, then we are in bad shape, and without realizing it really become empty and numb. "
" I hope that everyone will find someone who witnessed that life even though poor and although marked by fragility may be blessed.
I hope that everyone will find someone who face of Jesus who tells him: "You who are poor ... blessed because the kingdom of God is for you ...
