Practical Piety of St. Francis de Sales: Chapter 22: Being Over-fond of Things

About this sermon

As we celebrate the Month of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, let us meditate on the infinite love God has for us and our response to that divine love. In this beautiful spiritual reflection, St. Francis de Sales, the Doctor of Divine Love, teaches us the importance of holy resignation to God's will, detachment from earthly attachments, purity of heart, and becoming exactly who God created us to be. "Let us be what we are, and let us be so to do honor to the Master Workman whose creation we are." Through these timeless words, St. Francis de Sales reminds us that true holiness consists not in becoming what we desire, but in becoming what God wills. Every duty, no matter how small, becomes precious when it is embraced as God's holy will. May this reflection help deepen your devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and strengthen your trust in Divine Providence. St. Francis de Sales, pray for us. 00:00 Introduction 00:25 The Sacred Heart of Jesus and God's Love 00:48 Preparing Our Hearts for God's Will 01:07 Embracing Contradictions Through Faith 01:21 Honoring God's Providence 01:43 Purity of Heart and Divine Will 01:56 Avoiding Excessive Attachments 02:12 Let Us Be What God Created Us To Be 02:34 The Importance of Living According to God's Will 02:43 Be Who You Are and Be It Well 02:52 St. Francis de Sales Pray for Us To donate to the Church Restoration Project in Ireland please visit https://gofundme.com/restore-immaculate & remember to say 3 Hail Marys for the priest. 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Support Catholic Businesses here - https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-businesses/ Sensus Fidelium Press - https://sensusfideliumpress.com/ Sensus Fidelium Apps - https://sensusfidelium.tv/ Support Sensus Fidelium - https://sensusfidelium.com/donate-support/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Follow the Institute of Christ the King on...
