KICKSTART: A Space to Deepen My Relationship with Him

University is said to be the best time of our lives and yet, I entered it feeling a lot of apprehension. It was a new environment with new people and new responsibilities. As someone who had just recently decided to find God again, I was afraid that this renewed faith would be drowned by all these new things.

Coming into Fides, I found people pursuing God amidst a hectic university schedule. Being a good student and being a good Catholic no longer seemed like a dichotomy to me. I had a strong support group that became my haven when things got overwhelming. I was led back to God whenever I strayed. I was given the space to deepen my relationship with Him.

Being part of a community turned what I thought to be selfish ambition into a desire to use my gifts from God for God. University is said to be the best time of our lives. I think I’ve grown to see just why. I pray that you will too. – Sabrina Lee, SMU.

At first glance, we may be quick to think of the physical and natural aspect of death. Yet, the call of Christ also entails dying to self – surrendering the desires, the habits and lifestyles that prevent us from following and loving Him.

The One Thing Necessary: 3rd Sunday of Lent

If Jesus were to enter our churches today, what will He find? He would not find any cattle, sheep or doves, like in today’s gospel. But will He find our hearts noisy and distracted with our worldly concerns and thoughts?
