The Real Presence


Listen Later

This is the first I hope of many interviews on our podcast platform.  Today I invited a guest to speak about the holy presence of God.  What is the true presence?  Do we even know in our hearts who it is we are seeking?  Sometimes we can live our entire life and not question who is God?  Why are we here?  In the faith we are formed very young to know these answers, but not everyone is blessed with the gift of knowing and having a true faith.  I will go as far as to say that faith is for me the greatest seed of hope for what is yet to come. 

Those of us who already know Jesus, and acknowledge him as Lord,  understands the true presence, and fortunately as young children we were taught the most importance of why we were born, and the great and wonderful answer we were given was, "To know God, to love God, to be happy with God in this life and all throughout the next.  The Felician Sisters did make sure there wasn't any confusion in the children of the faith. Fortunately they did a great job in mentoring to us as early as the first grade.

The Felician Sisters made it a priority to prepare us  in mind, body, soul, and spirit for the journey in truth.   We were given the greatest discipline, first we learned  to be obedient in how we spoke and acted they not only prepared us to be  good students in school, their  discipline definitely carried itself over into my home life.  Life lessons and school lessons combined with faith, art, music, math, science , and daily exercise in the fresh air outside, gave us as God's children a place to become well rounded.  

I believe that I owe a tremendous amount of debt to the sisters and priests who loved us and united us for and to the greater glory of God.  I am who I have become because of God living in me through their great examples of faith.   And in honor of their sacrifice to God and to every child I devote my writing, my research, my podcast, to them for the blessings that overflow today in my heart because they chose Jesus and gave Jesus to us through their teaching.   And Jesus has brought me to you through this wonderful connection and may we all desire to continually grow in greatness, when it comes to being honest followers and believers in Christ. For he is truly present in you and in me, and together we will take him to the next level. But let us first truly desire in getting to know Him through Holy Scripture and  Daily Mass.
