- Gratitude for
graces received 🙏

“So
everyone who acknowledges me before men, I also will acknowledge before my
Father who is in heaven, but whoever denies me before men, I also will deny
before my Father who is in heaven.” (Matthew 10:32–33)

Giving
testimony of faith is a natural consequence of having it. Those who do not
have, nor want to have, cannot testify, obviously. It depends on our will, but
faith in itself is a God's gift, it is not our merit, so it cannot generate
vanity. If it is serving human vanity, it is not faith... at least, not in God.
It's not
just the saints who have it.
Let's
make a comparison - not perfect, of course: faith is like a gift for each of
us, and we have to find it under the Christmas tree. It was not manufactured or
placed there by us. To have it, we need to desire it and go pick it up. Sometimes, we don't
find it; we can ask for help and, if we wish it a lot, if we insist, the one
who gave us the gift can even show us where it is.
And what
a joy when we find it! Look how beautiful my gift is! Go get
yours too!
