But you, dear friends, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in God’s love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.

My own interaction with young people has been shaped by WYD. Learning from the examples of the popes, I try to make myself open and responsive to the young, confident that sincerity and honesty and true love of Christ and His Church become their own message, become the most important message we bishops can share. They will know it if they see it in us.

Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.

“

Be alert and diligent in the service of God, thinking often why you were born and why you have left the world. Was it not that you should live only for God and become a spiritual person? Certainly it was.
Therefore, set your heart on striving for perfection, for shortly you will be rewarded for all your labors and after that you will never experience sorrow and dread.
Your labor will last but a short time and then you will receive everlasting rest and peace. If you are faithful and fervent in doing good, there is no doubt that God will be faithful and generous in His reward.
Have a firm hope that you will attain the victory; but do not presume this, for then there is danger of your becoming careless and proud.

Thomas a Kempis Imitation of Christ: Book 1, Chapter 25, Number 1 (via catholic-inspiration)

Sitting in a church doesn’t make you anymore “Christian” than sitting in a garage makes you a car. Having a relationship with Jesus isn’t a guarantee that life will always be full of rainbows & sunshine; most of the time, life gets tough. But what He does promise is that He’ll be with us through the storms and comfort us always. Even when humans fail, God won’t.

Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves the father loves his child as well.

Who is it that overcomes the world? Only the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.

I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life. This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him.
