I like the bluntness of today's message.
When, a few years ago, I re-read the Spiritual Works of Mercy and the one of "Admonish The Sinner" I was struck with "And just how am I supposed to do that??" It is sooooooooooo politically uncorrect to do. And yet we must.
A lot of things in life are not easy.
Daily E-Spiration from Franciscan University
"If the best we can do for a friend lost in sin is to say, "You're really a good person," what has happened to the good news? If the best we can offer is encouragement or approval, where is the power of the cross to heal?
Being a "nice person" is worthless in hell."
Fr. Francis Martin The Life Changer: How You Can Experience Freedom, Power and Refreshment in the Holy Spirit, St. Bede's Publications
