Imagine if Luke Skywalker never left Tatooine, or imagine if Frodo never left The Shire, or imagine if Eleven never left Mike Wheeler’s basement and just stayed there. All of these heroes were meant for something. They had a purpose, and they lived it out. And we are called to do the same thing.
In the gospel for this Sunday, Jesus pities the people because they are like sheep without a shepherd, and they have forgotten their purpose. When we live on purpose and let Jesus lead us in our purpose, that fulfills us. That is what fulfills the deepest desires of our hearts. And so you have a purpose. You are called to be a saint and to allow Jesus to lead you there. No matter how boring your life may be right now, no matter how frustrating your life may be right now, you have a purpose because you are called to be a saint. This is Spirit Juice. Peace.

The crazy thing about mosquito nets is that the holes of the mosquito net are bigger than the mosquito’s body. A mosquito could crawl through but can’t because it doesn’t know how to fold its wings and crawl through a hole bigger than its body. In this Sunday’s…

Embrace Everything From Jesus
Okay, guys, it’s time for class, Spiritual Warfare 101. When it comes to discerning something in our hearts, when it comes to our prayer, the evil one, Satan, causes fear, division, confusion, and chaos. Jesus Christ, our Lord, and God causes peace, tranquility, love, union, and greater faith. In our gospel today, Jesus says, “The thief has come to steal and kill and destroy…

Desire and Act to Heal
In the gospel for the Sunday, Jesus shares with us, “If a brother sins against you, go to that brother and share his fault with him alone.” This message is so powerful for us, and we can take this teaching and completely ignore it.
