Day 20
(First of all, I apologize if some of my posts are early or late. I look at a calendar and count the days and then I tell my blog to post at 2:00 a.m. on a particular day. Sometimes it does; sometimes it doesn't. I will have a post for all 33 days. As I said, some may be early and some may be late.)
I really like this chapter and I like at it is placed here on Day 20, a little more than halfway through our 33 Days. The reason I like it so much is that I know it is true. I have seen it played out in my life time and time again.
The other reason I like it is that I think this is a reason why some people (myself included at times) don't strive to grow in holiness. They don't want to seem weird. They don't want to put off their old friends. They are sometimes afraid of what others might think.
I have heard from some of our parishioners about how this book is changing their lives. I want to encourage you to not be afraid of that change. God is with you in the change. So if this consecration has caused you to want to go to Mass more, I encourage you to go to Mass more. And if someone asks you why, share with them this book. If this consecration is calling you to spend more time in Eucharistic Adoration, spend the time.
God is doing great things with JPII. I hope you are willing to be a part of it by consecrating yourself to Jesus in His most Holy Eucharist!
