“Do not, my child, approach Jesus Christ with the hope of bending his will to yours: what I desire is that you yield yourself to him and that he receive you, so that he, your Savior, may do with you and in you whatever he pleases.” — St. Cajetan
The Holy Spirit is like a master sculptor. At times he strikes hard and with aggression, other times, it is more refined and slower, but the goal is to bring out the image of Christ buried within. The key is to be true to who you are. If you are married, be faithful to your spouse, focus on your kids and don’t dream about other options. If you have a career, be ethical, fair and hard working. He will always push you to be, like Christ, selfless and magnanimous. Don’t look for easy and immoral escape routes from your duties and obligations…let the master sculptor strike when and where he prefers: he knows what is best for us!!
