Thoughts for May 28 from Fr Willie Doyle

“One thing is wanting to thee” (Luke 18:22). How many souls there are upon whom Jesus looks would love, souls who are very dear to his Sacred Heart, for they have done much and sacrificed much for Him. Yet He asks for more, He wants that last sacrifice, the surrender of that secret clinging to some trifling attachment, that their lives may be a perfect holocaust. How many souls hear this little voice, “One thing is wanting to you, that you may be perfect”, one generous effort to break away from the almost severed ties of self-love, and yet they heed it not.”

    It’s true, that Jesus is demanding, because He knows we can be more generous, more kind, more merciful, more charitable, and the more we give, the more we imitate Him, and are transformed into the very one He wants us to, that is one with Him.
    Please Father Doyle, pray for us that by self-sacrifice, self- forgetfulness we walk in the very footsteps of Jesus, imitating His love for mankind, and especially giving God the glory He so deserves.
