The Church is the house of God, place of His manifestation. We should seek the Lord, leaving our comfort.

Hey Guys, Peace and Good

All of us want to encounter peace, healing, deliverance, miracles, etc. things that come from God and, therefore, we go to many places looking for them, some quite wrong. It will not be in just whatever place that  blessings will be encountered, because blessings are not merchandise that we can buy with money, tithes, contributions.

Beyond our going to wrong places, when we go the correct ones,  in the majority of time, we are in search of the things of God and not the God of things. Beyond praying a little, when we pray, we pray incorrectly.

First we should look for the Lord of the things through which He is, to praise Him, to love him,  as He gives graces and as the word of God says “everything else will be added”

Second, we need to leave our comfort and go to encounter the Lord in Church, in the Holy Mass, in the places of pilgrimage. It is important that we go in pilgrimage to the holy places, but in this pilgrimage, we need to be pilgrims and not tourists.
