Okay, so if you’ve ever been to the jungle or the rainforest or are just Indiana Jones, you may have used a mosquito net before. The crazy thing about mosquito nets is that the holes of the mosquito net are bigger than the mosquito’s body. A mosquito could crawl through but can’t because it doesn’t know how to fold its wings and crawl through a hole bigger than its body.
In this Sunday’s Gospel, we hear about the mustard seed that we are called to start small, to live in humility, knowing that I am not perfect, we are not the most awesome, and we need Jesus. When we recognize our smallness and let Jesus into our smallness, the Lord can finally work. So, do you, in your daily life, need Jesus, or are you perfectly fine without him? We’re called to be small so that we can be significant. This is Spirit Juice. Peace.

Immaculate Conception
One of the things that I absolutely love about Buddy the Elf is the fact that he is so innocent. He is so pure. He is so humble. And a lot of that has to do with the fact that Santa. Takes him out of the orphanage and Buddy lives in the North Pole. He is preserved from the craziness of the world. This is the reason why…

Making and Breaking Plans
Raise your hand if you have made plans and then canceled them at the last minute for no apparent reason. Millennials and Gen-Zers, are notorious for making plans and then canceling them. Because there is something within us that believes that what I say and promise doesn’t matter and doesn’t hold weight. We can get into…

Voice of God
Okay, guys, you have to check out this photo. This photo was taken in 1974 of a little boy named Harold. Harold could not hear anything, so doctors placed a hearing aid in his ear, which is the reaction of Harold hearing sound for the first time. And this picture is so moving, but what we hear in the gospel for this Sunday is even more moving and more incredible. Jesus Christ takes a deaf man away from the crowd…
