The world is on fire. People seem to have forgotten God. Yet, are we happier without God? Evidence suggests an answer: increased cynicism, hopelessness, despondency, despair, burnout, and depression. We find ourselves chasing after the world, jumping on a veritable treadmill of dissatisfaction-seeking, finding, casting away, seeking again-always coming up empty. Churches are emptying and prescriptions for anti-depressants are increasing. Love of neighbor has given way to love of self. Me, me, me ... I myself. The further we find ourselves from God, the more ravenous wolves hem us in. This is not the life God wants for us. Jesus is the good shepherd who came so that we might have life and have it more abundantly. He tells us that his sheep hear his voice and follow him. Are we listening? Or are we seduced by the noise of the world. Today, spiritual dryness has created a tinderbox, ever at risk of erupting into destructive flames. Consciously or unconsciously, we need God-the living waters of salvation. The greatest challenge is to abandon the broad, comfortable thoroughfare of sin and return to God with humility and repentance. God loves us and sent his Incarnate Son to lead us back to him. Jesus is the gate and only he can fulfill the desires of every human heart. Let us take time to listen to the voice of Jesus.
