necessary. Your mere presence will touch
hearts.” (St. Vincent de Paul) How important is it to fully center our lives in God, who is the beginning and end of our lives, the source of all our blessings! Once he is, then two things happen. One, like St Paul, we can say: “ I live now, not I, but Christ Jesus in me.” Two, it will be his love and presence which will minister to others, more effectively than I alone could ever hope to do. We can merely hope for his
presence or we can seek it intentionally.
