Keep up the Great Work!

Picture
At first it seems like flattery, it is not.  What is the Great Work that we should be keeping up.  The work is the effort to Bring Souls to Jesus.  We either bring them to Jesus or we take them away.   Those of us who are on a mission to Bring Souls to Jesus understand how great of a work this is.  There is nothing more important in this life to do than to save your soul and help others to save theirs as well. 

"Man is successful in this world if he saves his soul and is very knowledgeable if he knows the science of salvation; but he is a total failure if he loses his soul and knows nothing if he is ignorant of those things that can assure him of eternal salvation." St. John Bosco

James 5:20 is one of the simplest ways to get to heaven.  Bring a soul to Jesus and you ensure your own salvation. 


“Whoever brings back a sinner will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.”
(James 5:20).
 


If this is not a great work what is!  Great in the sense that the work lasts forever.  Great in the sense that it is an infinitly good thing to help someone save their soul.  Great in the honor, Great in the Glory, Great in every sense of the word Great.   Any work for God is great but there are degrees of holiness to which the work entails.  This work is the Greatest.  The work of bringing souls to Jesus. 


“There is nothing more holy in this world than to work for the good of souls, for whose salvation Jesus Christ poured out the last drops of His Blood.”  St John Bosco

As members of the Four Men prayer groups and one of God's Marines you will be doing a Great Work.  Thus, I repeat to you again, 

Keep up the Great Work!


"Zeal for the salvation of souls is of so great a merit before God, that to give up all our goods to the poor, or to spend our whole life in the exercises of all sorts of austerities cannot equal the merit of it. There is no service more agreeable to God than this one. To employ one's life in this blessed labor is more pleasing to the Divine Majesty than to suffer martyrdom. Would you not feel happy if you could spend large sums of money in corporal works of mercy? But know that he who labors for the salvation of souls does far more; nay, the zeal of souls is of far greater merit before God . . . than the working of miracles."  St. John Chrysostom

It would be better if I were to die and be received by God's angels and taken into heaven. But for the sake of the church and all those lost souls, it is best that i remain among the living, praying, interceeding, and fasting for the salvation of lost souls and the purification of the church. In the name of Jesus, help me to pray by increasing my faith. Shower me with Your Anointing, Father God, by way of Your Holy Spirit and in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. in the name of Jesus, according to Your Will, and to honor and glorify your name, i pray. Amen.

As I said before, "Make a Friend, Be a Friend, Bring a Friend to Christ!" What greater thing we can do to bring someone to our Chief and Savior Jesus Christ!

Blessings,
Timoteo, OFS

This message is placed well in our boot camp readings. I begin to flag a bit in my zeal and am tending to lose sight of my purpose in boot camp. I see the importance our work and how it is the greatest of acts.

St. Philomena once said to Cure of Ars: " Your works are more perfect, because there is nothing more percious than the salvation of souls."

I struggle to keep moving forward, feeling somewhat overcome with this responsibility, and The Evil One is out there distracting me and pulling me away from this great work. Pray for me...

Thank you Freddie for your prayer above...
