This is a little dated, but the “Bourne” trilogy. Jason Bourne, an ex-assassin, runs away and hides from the government. He does everything in his power, training, and skill to hide from the government, and he succeeds.
When it comes to being a Christian, we will never succeed at hiding from Jesus. Today, Holy Saturday, what does Jesus do? Before the Resurrection, he goes to the dead to bring those faithful to the Father to him. Here is Jesus, willing to go to the depths of hell for us. He’s willing to pursue you even to death. The greatest news ever is that Jesus will pursue you unto death. Open your heart, go to Jesus today, and prepare for Easter.

This will make you happy. This will make you fulfilled. It felt empty at the time because I knew the Lord was calling me to something else. He was calling me to something that would…

Obedient To Jesus
By location, being in two places at once. You know who could do that? Kill me. Padre Pio, reading other People’s Souls. You know who could do that? Who? Padre Pio. Loving Jesus with his whole heart. Who could that be? Yeah, you guessed it. Padre Pio. Pope Benedict the 16th set about Padre Pio.

Jesus Wants To Be With You
Sometimes the most healing thing someone can do isn’t fix our problems, it’s simply stay with us.
After one student’s life seemed to fall apart in a single day, a friend showed up in the middle of the night just to be there with her. That quiet presence changed everything.
In this Sunday’s Gospel, Jesus gives us the same promise: “I am with you always.” He doesn’t abandon us in suffering, failure, or loneliness. His desire is simply to remain with us, and for us to remain with Him. Because in the end, isolation is the absence of love, but being with Him is where healing begins
