Our King reigns over heaven and earth, but he also reigns within the hearts of all mankind.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many years ago, I heard a homily that posed the question: Who sits on the throne of my heart, me or Jesus? That question came to mind as I sat to write this reflection. If Jesus is not the one who sits on the throne of my heart, what enemy is preventing him from being there?<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s consider eight enemies to Christ\u2019s throne. The enemy of <em>mediocrity<\/em>, who convinces us we can live a good life with minimal prayer, occasional confession, and attendance at Sunday Mass. The enemy of <em>self-reliance<\/em>, who convinces us we are doing just fine on our own and we don\u2019t really need God. The enemy of <em>acedia or laziness<\/em>, who tempts us to give up the struggle to live an authentic Christian life in our homes and in society. Then there are <em>selfishness and tepidity<\/em>, two usurpers who tempt us to indifference when authentic witness is needed, or to choose personal comfort and convenience over generous service. Often, these enemies entice us to do just enough to appease our conscience, but not enough to allow Christ to reign.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next up, we have <em>hypocrisy, fear<\/em>, and finally, <em>complacency<\/em>. All three of these enemies offer excuses to remain noncommittal, living in the kingdom of our own making instead of that of Christ\u2019s. In the words of John the Evangelist, these enemies keep us lukewarm (cf. Rev 3:15-16).<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lord Jesus, you reign forever. Help us defeat the enemies who compete for your throne in our hearts. Flood the world with your peace and fill us with the fire of your love.\u00a0 Amen.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yours in the Heart of Jesus,<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Donna<\/p>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Friends, \u00a0 The liturgical year culminates with the celebration of Christ the King, reminding the faithful that Jesus Christ is the eternal King.
