So a hundred years from now, what will you be known for if ChatGBT has not taken over the world? Will they remember something that you did? Or will they remember a personality trait? What will you be known for? In the Gospel today, Jesus clearly states that He wants us to love Him first and then love everyone and everything after Him. When we put Jesus as the priority, everything else flows into place. The saints were known for loving Jesus first and prioritizing Him. That made them fully alive. Let this be a moment we can choose Jesus first, and everything else will flow into place. Don’t stop loving your mom. Don’t stop loving your spouse but love Jesus first and foremost, and then your love for your spouse, friends, and parents will shine even brighter and make you fully alive.

The war chant is taunting the other team, taunting the enemy, saying, we’re not afraid of you. There’s nothing about you that makes us scared. We are confident. We are not scared of you at all. This is precisely what St. Paul is doing in the second reading for this Sunday. He is saying directly to death…

Easter
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.
