God's Word Is Our Salvation

With all the hoopla surrounding "Super Sunday":  the TV ads, the food and drink at the "Super Parties", the victory, we might forget the every Sunday is a "Super Sunday" as we attend Mass and feed on the Word of God and the Holy Eucharist.  These are what nourish, bring us together, give life and victory. Here at the Encounter we heard a moving testimony of how the gift of a Bible changed a man's entire life:  he went from atheist to devout, energetic youth minister who touches the hearts of others with his faith and music.  In our small group, we gave out copies of the New Testament to each student, with highlighted passages that seemed tailor-made for each person.  The students were amazed at how apropos the verses were for each of them (the Holy Spirit was with us when we made the choices) and were sparked into wanting to delve more into God's Word, pledging to read a chapter a day.   May their enthusiasm rub off onto us and lead us step by step daily to our eternal salvation.
