St. Pius X

When Jesus went into the region of Caesarea Philippi he asked his disciples, "Who do people say that the Son of Man is?" They replied, "Some say John the Baptist, others Elijah, still others Jeremiah or one of the prophets." He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Simon Peter said in reply, "You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God"  (Matthew 16: 13-16).

Ask yourself that same question. Who do YOU say that Jesus is? Was He just a nice guy, a teacher … Or is He your Lord and your best Friend? Don’t chose mediocrity.

Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of faith and the gift of life.
