Five years ago, I had the insane opportunity to go to the Holy Land and do a pilgrimage. And in the Holy Land, I went to the Holy Sepulchre. In the Holy Sepulchre, there is the tomb where they laid the body of Jesus, and I went inside. Guys, you will not believe what I saw. I saw nothing. There was nothing. There was no one because Jesus Christ had risen from the dead.
We celebrate Easter today, which is the reality of the Resurrection. Jesus Christ has been victorious over death, sin, and all our hearts’ fears. You never have to be afraid again because Jesus has won, He is living, and He is true and resurrected. I am praying for all of you. I hope you have a blessed Easter. I love you so much. And please say yes to the Risen Lord. This is Spirit Juice. Blessed, happy Easter. God bless you.

Strive To Be A Saint
Saint Therese of Lisieux. She lived till the age of 24. She lived most of her life in a convent in the suburbs of France. She is considered one of the most ambitious saints the church has ever seen because Saint Therese desired to be a saint from the depths of her heart. And we are called to have that holy ambition as well. In the gospel…

Living in Unreality
Okay, so I just spent three hours playing Fortnite with another priest. And yes, we got some dubs. But afterward, I felt horrible after three hours of living in unreality that weighed on me. Whenever we are living away from the truth, that is further away from Jesus. And in the gospel for this Sunday, Pilate is also living in unreality. He knows that Jesus is innocent, yet he decides to live and act not in reality…

Feeling Not Good Enough?
When we hear the lie, “I’m not enough”, it can start to feel true. Not good enough. Not smart enough. Not worthy enough.
But on the Feast of Corpus Christi, the Eucharist tells us something completely different. Your worth is one Eucharist. That is how deeply Jesus loves you, and that is what makes you enough.
In the Eucharist, Jesus doesn’t just give Himself to us, He receives us, all of us. So come to Him with your doubts, your wounds, and your whole heart, knowing that He is ready to receive you.
