About this listen

Before you express your faith in someone else, you must express it in yourself. Being confident, having faith in oneself, is as essential as oxygen to one's heart. Our life experience tells us that unless and until you believe in yourself and in your abilities, no one can help you to develop confidence by giving a lecture or some exercise. It is the faith and belief that one has that makes the person who he or she is. Our bodies are built to sense and respond to threats. While fear can protect us, it can also paralyze, rob us of peace, and create division. The ultimate goal of our lives is to live our lives fully and faithfully. St. Irenaeus’ famous insight on the vocation of the human person, “The glory of God is man fully alive”, fits perfectly with the heart of today's liturgical readings.
