Our Change Will Affect the World!

I have a good friend, Zac King.  He was a Satanic Wizard.  He live his life pleasing Satan and himself.  He wounded up with a big zero.  He was empty.  The spells gave him a high, the power gave him a high, his status gave him a high.  But after the high he tank to the dismal mark.

Until one fateful day in a mall he was given a Miraculous Medal.  He didn’t know anything about it, he didn’t know about the Blessed Virgin Mary or the Catholic Church.

The minute he closed his hand and gripped it.  He found himself in another place.  Everything around him disappeared, he was no longer in the mall.

There was the beautiful queen of heaven, Mama Mary.  She smiled at him!!!  She didn’t look at a Satan worshipper, she looked at her boy.  She took his hand and turned him around and there he saw Jesus, the Divine Mercy.  The rays were coming out of his heart. He converted to the Catholic Faith immediately after that.  Now he does all he can to stop abortion.


For lent, brothers and sisters, can we see with the Father’s  eyes how he views his children?  Let’s see the love of God towards people  who we would normally ignore. Maybe say a kind word, make a good gesture, assist in kindness.   Don’t stop there,  let’s do this constantly, especially family members whom we are annoyed with or treat below the kindness level.  Let’s see them with brand new eyes and love them with a changed heart of flesh.   Let’s see Jesus in them and let them see Jesus in us!!!!

The change in the world really needs to start with “me”.    That’s all we have control over. If you think that’ll not affect the world dramatically- look at Mother Teresa, Dorothy Day, Father Cappadonna, Padre Pio and the list goes on.  


Our change is necessary.  Our world depends on it.  Spread LOVE everywhere.  Let that be our biggest sacrifice this lent!

Happy Valentine's Day!
