If you’re a Marvel fan, what would it be like if Iron Man was real? If you’re a Harry Potter fan, what would it be like if Hogwarts was real? If you’re a Pokemon fan, what would it be like if Snorlax was real? Now, imagine that you’re an Old Testament Jew. What would it be like to realize that the Messiah was real? That’s what you would be dreaming about. That the Messiah, the Son of God, is true and real. In the gospel for this Sunday, Jesus claims that. Jesus says, “Today, the scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.” Jesus tells these faithful Jews, “It’s me and always been me.” And Jesus is speaking to us as well. “Every time we go to Mass, you open up scripture, and the Eucharist is consecrated; it’s me. It’s always been me.” It’s the best news ever. This is Spirit Juice. Peace.

It’s Okay To Be Single
Shout out to everyone who is single. That’s right. And coming from a celibate priest, I need to let you know it will be okay. We can often experience a feeling of not being chosen when living a single life. We can often feel as if, I guess, I’m just not worth it. There’s something wrong with me. But the beautiful reality of the gospel today is Jesus, who says…

Be Brutally Honest with Jesus
Let’s talk about Emmett from the Lego movie. He thinks that everything is awesome. Yet, he is actually living a lie and he can’t truly be happy until he is honest with himself and honest about his situation. Right, come on, let’s be honest.
