St. Francis is the rich young man who didn’t turn away sad. God invited St. Francis, and his response was even more than his heart burning for the Lord — he was consumed. There was no going back. He became more like Jesus, but without being less like Francis. He became more like Francis; not losing himself in God, but finding himself in God. The unique man that he is in the eyes of the Father, not just repeating the works of other saints.
Our hearts have such a capacity that we want more and more…which means that at some point, you leave behind some lesser goods. You develop a taste for a love that’s greater, and that’s a good thing. Francis didn’t settle for anything less — and neither should you.

This is why it’s so important to understand our hearts and…

The Father’s Delight
Do you truly grasp the depth of your heavenly Father’s delight in you? A significant aspect of the Father’s heart is to unconditionally care for his children, in whatever form that takes. This love may seem overwhelming or even exhausting at times, but it’s because of this uncalculated, unending love that the moments when he gets to care for and be with his children in this unique way can be the most cherished part of Father’s Day…
