So, when I was a senior in college, I got offered a job with the FBI. And I remember when that moment happened, I felt interiorly so empty, which is crazy because here’s what the world is saying. 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 truly fulfill me. In the Gospel for this Sunday, Jesus is calling all of us to die to ourselves so that we can bear fruit and be fulfilled with the Lord. I am sure you all have amazing plans for your life. I am sure your plans for your own life are awesome, but God’s plans are better. And I am sure that with your plans for your own life, you will do good things, but with God’s plan for your life, you can literally shake the universe. This is Spirit Juice, peace.

Patrick, on the other hand, he has no vision. He lives under a rock. He doesn’t really do anything. That is how we can so often live as Catholics. We live as Patrick…

Getting Ripped (Spiritually) This Lent
It’s Lent, and let’s get after it. The best thing we can do for this Lent is spiritually move from Andy Dwyer to Star-Lord. When he plays Andy Dwyer, Chris Pratt is a little bit on the overweight side, a little bit pudgy, and when he plays Star-Lord, he is very fit.

Hungry for Jesus
Okay, so let’s talk about sushi. It is a common experience that when people eat sushi, they feel more hungry afterward. There are so many factors to this. White rice is quickly digestible. There is very little protein within sushi. The salty soy sauce that we consume also makes us really, really thirsty and really, really hungry. All these factors combined do not satisfy us.
