Sometimes we become so consumed with “activism” that God becomes a mere concept, an uplifting idea we try to wrap our minds around, and we forget that He is really present and in love with us. Far too many souls, even good religious souls, tend to forget that God is a Person — a Trinity of Persons, in fact — longing to enter into a relationship with us.
Fr. Wayne Sattler awakens us and places us in that fruitful mindset. He relates how Mother Teresa of Calcutta would ask her sisters, “Do you really know the living Jesus — not through books, but by being with Him in your heart?” Fr. Sattler’s stories will stir you to want to authentically know, love, and serve the Lord in your daily life and respond meaningfully to God’s invitation to “remain in me and I in you” (John 15:4).
