To journey together, we must help one another along the way; console one another; and listen together to the wisdom and love of the Holy Spirit.

It is not hard for us to imagine Fr. McGivney’s meditating on this Gospel passage, and learning from the Savior himself how to be a holy, humble, self-effacing priest.

If our debt to Fr. McGivney is incalculable, so too our devotion to him must be without stint.

It could even be said that Jesus, in his human nature, learned from St. Joseph what it means to seek out and to do the will of the heavenly Father.

In a word, we are being formed to love as the saints and angels love in heaven. We are being formed so that God the Father can see and love in us what he sees and loves in his Son, Jesus Christ. 

Yes, what the world needs now is love and while we Christians may not have the answers to many of life’s problems, we have received from the Lord, in abundance, that love which the world needs.

Both St. Teresa of Calcutta and Bl. Michael McGivney are interceding for us as we enter into the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the source and font of our charity.

The great sin of our times is in fact the sin of presumption. For many, God’s unconditional love means they have no need to repent.
