☩ JESUS CHRIST CRUCIFIED ☩
The Only Message
There is only one message. One answer. One name that is not optional, not customizable, and not up for negotiation:
Jesus Christ. Crucified.
He’s not a coping strategy. He’s not a lifestyle. He’s the Lamb of God—beaten, bloodied, and raised. And everything you think you’re missing will be found only at His feet.
For years, people have come to me looking for answers:
“So-and-so doesn’t love me.”
“Johnny won’t leave his wife for me.”
“I have Stage 4 breast cancer.”
“My son took his own life.”
Some come with shallow drama. Some come with devastating grief. But the truth is the same every time:
Somewhere, at some point, there was a departure from God.
If you don’t know when it happened, then go back in time. You’ll find it. The sin, the silence, the little compromise that grew into chaos. It’s there. And how does Jesus Christ crucified help with that?
So-and-so doesn’t love you?
Jesus does. He always has. You just haven’t received it.Johnny won’t leave his wife?
Then stop playing Jezebel. You’re not the exception. You’re living in sin.You have cancer?
God still performs miracles. But even if not, your faith in Christ will raise you from the dead.Your son took his life?
You’re still alive. Then pray. Intercede. Offer a Divine Mercy Novena.
And if you don’t know Christ? That’s your first emergency.
And now, the part that gets me every time: The arrogance. The little voice that says, “Yeah, but my case is different.” No honey. It’s not. There are 8 billion people on this planet. And you are not a spiritual unicorn.
“There is nothing new under the sun.”
(Ecclesiastes 1:9)
Your suffering is real. But your pride is the wall. That’s what keeps you from being healed. You want the fruits of faith without the humility of repentance. You want Heaven without a Cross.
Saint Benedict said, “Remind yourself daily that you are going to die.”
He also said, “Not only must you approach Jesus as unworthy and miserable, but you must know in your heart that it is so.”
That’s where people back away. That’s where egos flinch. That’s where truth gets called ‘judgment’ and repentance gets rebranded as ‘negativity.’ But until you face Him—crucified—you’ll never be free.
So if you’re asking me for a reading, or a word, or an answer? Here it is. The only one that matters:
Jesus Christ, crucified.
✝️ Start at the Cross.
🕯️ Stay there.
Let everything else burn.
Because there is only one message.
And He is enough.
