Pray without Ceasing

That is not enough, my son! That is not enough, because love cannot be reduced to the indispensable minimum; love demands the maximum! Do you think that I could practice charity if I did not ask Jesus every day to fill my heart with His love? Do you think that…

Leaving behind Fear and Learning to Love

Jesus welcoming the children

(from a Spiritual Warfare talk given by Father Wolfgang Seitz in 2018) Do you have fears? Fear of suffering, fear of not being comfortable, fear of having children, fear maybe to become a priest, fear of not being accepted and loved, fear not to have enough money in your bank…

An excerpt from “One Heart Full of Love” by Saint Mother Teresa of Calcutta: Let us not love by words alone, but let us love until it hurts. It cost Jesus to love us. He even died for us. Now it is our turn to love one another as Jesus…

Vulnerability in Love

Jesus crucified

“Did Jesus cry from pain?” I remember hearing this question on Catholic radio. The answer (if I recall correctly) was that Jesus could cry from physical pain—He was fully human like us. And He was capable of weeping emotionally, like with His grief after Lazarus had died (see John 11:35).…
