Great focus. Fruits of the Holy Spirit are a good way for us to work backward and assess if there is a need to change our own disposition. It's something I consider if I'm feeling burnout. Somehow I've allowed myself to lose track of my identity in Christ, and my mission. As such, I need Spiritual Direction, Retreat (once a year) and Confession regularly in order to address such things.

In this life, we find ourselves in a constantly changing state, moment to moment. As a result we need endurance in the good and growth in the good. So constant maintenance, like a vineyard is required (i.e. pruning). Great reflection for Lent!

"We must announce the Lord. It is not optional!" That says it all! Thank you, Deacon!
