St. Ignatius of Loyola in the Spiritual Exercises tells us to beg for these graces:
TO KNOW CHRIST MORE INTIMATELY so that we might
LOVE HIM MORE ARDENTLY and thereby
FOLLOW HIM MORE CLOSELY
Our Holy Father, Benedict XVI, has given us the Year of Faith and he wants us to experience a deep personal knowledge and love of Jesus Christ.
Father Broom in his homily on Matthew 15:29-37 helps us see the qualities of Christ so that we know Him and imitate Him. He is a healer.. a teacher… a shepherd…a miracle worker… a man of compassion and mercy…He works with others and accepts their help… He is meek and humble of heart. We see Him, we hear Him we watch His face as he talks… we will come to know Him. And to love Him. And to follow Him.
Father Ed Broom OMV is a member of the Oblates of the Virgin Mary and is Associate Pastor at St. Peter Chanel Church in Hawaiian Gardens California.
