    Metanoia: A Call to New Life

    Looking at the example of the


    saints, we can HOPE to be
    transformed
    Metanoia: A Call to New Life
    And in understanding
    the invitation for man
    to level up
    from bios to zoe,

    we are called to live a new life in Christ in a life of LOVE.


    1Corinthians 13:4-8
    Love is patient, kind, without envy. It is not
    boastful or arrogant. It is not ill-mannered nor
    does it seek its own interest. Love overcomes
    anger and forgets offenses. It does not take
    delight in wrong, but rejoices in truth. Love
    excuses everything, believes all things, hopes all
    things, endures all things. Love never fails.
    The symbol of love …
    The symbol of loving presence is not the heart, but Jesus in the
    EUCHARIST.

    For the heart stops beating, but the God who is ever present in the
    Eucharist never stops loving.
    In the Eucharist
    God wants to hang out with us.
    Though we are sinners.

    AND Much more:


    He does not only want to spend time with us …

    … but He wants to stay with us.


    God knows …
    We are hungry!!! And He wants to feed us.

    Problem - - - do we go to Jesus to be fed?

    WHAT ARE WE HUNGRY FOR?
