Ave Maria Meditations
“If he is what he claimed to be, a savior, a redeemer, then we have a virile Christ and a leader worth following in these terrible times; One who will step into the breach of death, crushing sin, gloom and despair; a leader to whom we can make totalitarian sacrifice without losing, but gaining freedom, and whom we can love even unto death.
“We need a Christ today who make cords and drive the buyers and the sellers from the temples; who will blast the unfruitful fig tree; who will talk of crosses and sacrifices and whose voice will be like the voice of the raging sea.
“But he will not allow us to pick and choose among his words, discarding the hard ones and accepting the ones that will please our fancy. We need a Christ who will restore moral indignation, Who will make us hate evil with a passionate intensity, and love goodness to a point where we can drink death like water.”
God bless!
