"Faith is strengthened when it is given to others!"
~ Pope John Paul II from his encyclical Redemptoris Missio (Mission of the Redeemer)
Today I took my friend (and pseudo-sister) from Lafayette, LA, Johanna Fruge, to one of my favorite places in the world: Athens, GA, home of the UGA Bulldawgs. It is so true that my love for that place and the memories I have from there grew stronger as I showed Jo around (and hopefully convinced her to be a GA grad student in the future). What a beautiful correlation to when we fall in love with our Faith and remember why we feel so passionate about it again and again as we share it with others. If you want to revitalize the things that truly make you come alive, share it with others, and fall in love all over again.
