Being holy is a matter of transformation<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

The human heart is like a compass that always shows us that ‘good’ is good and ‘evil’ is evil.<\/span> But, unfortunately, people are very lost.<\/span> The bad ones remain bad, because the good ones are not better.<\/span> And why aren’t the good ones better?<\/span> Because they do not want to be saints.<\/span> And the good ones are not better, because the best are not saints.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Holiness is not a complicated thing<\/strong> .<\/span> It is to seek God.<\/span> You have to seek holiness,<\/a> but if you are satisfied with mediocrity, the current will be taking you down.<\/span><\/p>\n

And therein lies the secret of holiness!<\/strong><\/span> To be holy is a matter of transformation, not a magic trick.<\/strong><\/span> Looking with human eyes at worship, seeing the person standing there, we can say that she is losing her life by throwing it away.<\/span> But we are not throwing away our life!<\/span> Because, because we are there, as much as we can, in adoration<\/a> of the Blessed Sacrament, just believing, the Lord is with us.<\/span><\/p>\n
