Let Jesus Accomplish His Purpose in You

Fr. Tyler Mentzer, MIC, invites us to rediscover the heart of the Gospel—the very purpose of Christ. When Jesus declares, “Behold, I cast out demons and perform healings today and tomorrow, and on the third day I accomplish my purpose,” He reveals the mission that defines His life and ours: to bring salvation, to dwell within us, and to unite us forever to Himself.

From Baptism, where we are born of water and the Spirit, to the Eucharist, where we receive His Body and Blood, the Lord draws us into His divine life. His mission is not distant or abstract—it is personal. God’s purpose is to live in you, to make His home within your heart, to press you to His merciful Heart and fill you with His peace.

But He waits for your “yes.” The salvation of God is not forced—it is offered. When we open our hearts and say, “Jesus, enter my heart,” we allow His purpose to be fulfilled in us. That is the meaning of peace, the fullness of life, and the destiny for which we were made: to become a dwelling place of God.

On October 13, 1917, Heaven opened — and the sun danced. Before 70,000 witnesses, the Miracle of the Sun at Fatima became one of the most powerful public manifestations of God’s reality in human history. It was no myth, no private vision — even the secular press confirmed it. Our Lady appeared to remind us of one timeless truth: stop offending God, repent, and return to Him.
Today we celebrate St. Luke the Evangelist—the physician, artist, and companion of St. Paul who gave us one of the most merciful portraits of Christ in all of Scripture. In his Gospel, we meet Jesus as the Divine Physician: healing the sick, forgiving sinners, and lifting the poor and forgotten into His Heart. From the parables of mercy—the prodigal son, the lost sheep, the good Samaritan—to Christ’s words from the Cross, “Father, forgive them,” St. Luke reveals the face of a God who is infinite in compassion.
St. Ignatius of Antioch stands as one of the most important figures in the early Church. A disciple of St. John the Apostle and the third bishop of Antioch—appointed by St. Peter himself—Ignatius lived and died for the truth of the Catholic faith. As he was led to martyrdom in Rome, he urged fellow Christians not to rescue him, declaring that salvation comes through freedom from the fear of death.
