Jesus not only loves us — He thirsts for us. Why does He say “I thirst”? What does it mean? It’s something so hard to explain in words. I thirst is something much deeper than Jesus just saying, “I love you”. Mother Teresa tells us how much love Jesus has for each of us — beyond all that we can imagine. In her words “Not only He loves you, even more, He longs for you. He misses you when you don’t come close. He thirsts for you. He loves you always, even when you don’t feel worthy”
This fourth and last part of this series talks about Jesus’s experience of us and our first step to begin to know who He wants to be for us, or who Jesus wants us to be for Him.

Realities Not Fantasies
We think we’re most free when we can be in control. “I’m free when I get up every day and have control over my life and circumstances.” That’s not Catholic freedom, according to Jacque Philippe, but it is accepting reality as it is. We struggle with freedom because it’s hard to accept our weaknesses, and it’s pretty difficult to accept…

Humility, Obedience, and Prayer
Humility is a lowliness — not for its own sake but rather a proper understanding of who we are and who we are not. It’s a place where you know more about what everybody is saying in a room but doesn’t always have to say anything or don’t need to be someone who wants to seem smarter than everybody else.

Relationship, Identity, Mission
“Who Is God” and “Who am I?” This is what we’re attempting to answer when we talk about living in the proper order of relationship, identity, and mission.
