Father Eustace, in his writings and sermons, always emphasized the importance of loving Jesus Christ as the primary devotion of a Christian. In his words, he reminds us that love for Jesus should be at the center of our lives, guiding our actions, thoughts, and relationships.
“"The only, or rather, the principal devotion of a Christian should be to love Jesus Christ." This powerful phrase invites us to reflect on the true meaning of being a follower of Christ. Father Eustace reminds us that it is not enough to merely fulfill religious obligations, but rather to nurture a deep and sincere love for Jesus in our hearts.
Loving Jesus Christ means trusting Him completely, placing all our worries, fears, and hopes in His hands. It means recognizing His divinity and His role as our Savior and Lord. It is through this love that we find strength, comfort, and direction amidst life's adversities.
By loving Jesus, we are called to follow him closely, to imitate his teachings, and to live according to his commandments. It is through this love that we experience an inner transformation, which empowers us to love our neighbor, to forgive, to be compassionate, and to seek justice in all areas of life.
Father Eustáquio invites us to place Jesus Christ at the center of our lives, to dedicate time to prayer, reading the Word of God, and active participation in the Christian community.
May we be inspired by the words of Father Eustace and seek to love Jesus Christ with all our hearts. May this devotion motivate us to live a life of authentic faith, to share the love of Christ with those around us, and to constantly seek holiness.
