“God says to each one of us today: ‘I have chosen your soul, I have chosen your heart as sacred ground, to be adored there.’ Your baptized soul is a sacred place—do not profane it by giving it over to disordered passions and to the spirit of the world; do not profane it by stealing from God the first place. If the church of your soul lies in ruins, then listen to God’s call. It is time to rebuild it—and to rebuild it upon the rock, the solid foundation upon which we must build our life and our hope. Yes, it is time to rebuild the church of your soul. It is time for you to go to confession: confess the sins you have committed in word or in deed, by night or by day; confess now, in this favorable time, and on the day of salvation receive the heavenly treasure. ‘Above all, watch over your soul,’ says Saint Cyril of Jerusalem. It is time to care for it—by setting aside each day a real time of deep and silent prayer. It is time to cast out the idols of money, of screens, of easy and vulgar seduction. God wants your heart. God wants your soul, just as He wanted this land of Brittany.” ~Robert Cardinal Sarah, Homily at the Shrine of Sainte-Anne-d’Auray (July 26, 2025). Read more here:
