Did you know that the sun is 400 times larger than the moon? It may not look like it, but it’s true. Did you know that a typical cloud in the sky weighs 1.1 million pounds? It may not look like it, but it’s true. Did you know that Jesus is Lord and God to his people as he is dying on the cross? It may not look like it, but it’s true. And in the gospel for the Sunday, Jesus Christ gives us his flesh to eat, his blood to drink, his body, blood, soul, and divinity in the Eucharist. It may not look like it, but it’s true. We all have this Jesus-shaped hole in our hearts that yearns for the truth.
So when you feel that ache in your heart for something more, that’s usually Jesus knocking on your heart, saying it’s all true. Jesus Christ, the Catholic Church, the most holy Eucharist—these are all true things. And that will satisfy the Jesus-shaped hole in our hearts. This is Spirit juice, peace.

Sacrifice For Jesus
Okay, so in the gospel for this Sunday, Jesus is not trying to be an economist. He’s not concerned about what happens to the S&P 500. He is not worried about how much Bitcoin to give to the poor. Jesus is talking about our sacrificial hearts. In the gospel, the rich provide some of their money, and the poor widow gives all she has. Jesus is not concerned with numbers. He’s concerned with our…

Don’t Be Consumed By Wealth
Purple underwear. Say one that’s right in the gospel for the Sunday. This rich man may have been wearing purple underwear. Many scripture scholars have discussed this fine linen, highlighting the absolute extravagance of this rich man’s life. And the heartbreaking thing was the wealth consumed.
