Spiritual Obesity

“When we save certain things just for ourselves, we spoil them. Save knowledge, not use it to train others it becomes pride.”- Venerable Fulton Sheen

 
When I heard this I thought of John Acosta. Few years ago, he came to visit Calgary and gave a talk at the Alcantara’s. He mentioned in his talk about spiritual obesity. It makes sense, how can we let others experience Christ if we are keeping the spiritual nourishment we receive to ourselves? Us, as part of this community, we are called to share Christ to others.

 

Our spiritual growth can potentially empower others by sharing our own story, our faith journey, the knowledge we get from retreats, teaching nights and others. In this community, we walk together and support each other. Let’s use our potential power to bring friends and families closer to Him. Let’s save knowledge not only for ourselves but also to help others.
