The wine is good. The problem is you,
0:03
the container.
0:06
You want God's blessings, but you do not
0:08
want to change. Yeah. You want God to
0:13
bless your business, but you treat your
0:16
workers unfairly.
0:18
Yeah. You want peace, but you refuse to
0:21
forgive.
0:24
Yeah. That is like pouring new wine in
0:27
old wine skins.
0:30
Well, my good people, welcome to today's
0:33
uh daily dose of uh motivation,
0:36
inspiration, and encouragement. Today is
0:39
the Saturday of the 13th week in
0:42
ordinary time. Uh you can get today's
0:45
Catholic daily mass readings from our
0:48
website. Yeah, catholic readings
0:51
readings.org.
0:53
Uh you can find the link in the
0:55
description. So are you trying to serve
0:58
God while still holding tightly to your
1:00
old way of life?
1:02
In today's gospel, the disciples of John
1:05
asked Jesus why his disciples do not
1:08
fast like them. So Jesus answers with
1:12
very very powerful images. He says, "Do
1:16
not put a new patch on an old clock and
1:19
you do not pour new wine into old wine
1:22
skins."
1:24
So what is Jesus teaching us? He's
1:26
telling us that the new life he brings
1:30
cannot fit in an old stubborn and
1:33
unconverted heart like yours. I know
1:37
today you want the blessings of God but
1:40
you do not want to change. You want
1:43
peace in your heart and life but you
1:46
refuse to forgive.
1:48
You also want success, but you continue
1:51
cheating and lying.
1:54
You also want a a holy family, but you
1:57
bring anger, pride, and disrespect into
2:00
your home.
2:02
You also want God to bless you and your
2:05
business, but you treat your workers
2:07
very, very unfairly.
2:10
You want answered prayers, but you do
2:13
not want repentance.
2:16
My good people, that is like pouring new
2:19
wine into old wine skins
2:23
because the wine is good. The problem is
2:26
you, the container.
2:28
Yeah. God's grace is powerful. The
2:31
problem is your heart refuses to be
2:34
renewed. Jesus did not come merely to
2:38
improve your old life. He came to give
2:41
you a new life.
2:43
That means old habits must go, old
2:48
bitterness must go, old sins must go,
2:54
old excuses must go.
2:57
Yeah, you cannot follow Christ seriously
3:01
and remain the same person you were
3:03
yesterday.
3:05
If God is doing something new in your
3:07
life, then you must become a new wine
3:11
skin.
3:13
So have a new heart. Yeah. Have a new
3:18
mind. Yeah. Have a new attitude.
3:23
Have a new way of life. A new way of
3:26
speaking to people. Have a new way of
3:29
working.
3:31
Have a new way of loving people. Have a
3:34
new way of h being with others. So
3:40
today, ask yourself, am I asking God for
3:43
a new blessing while still protecting an
3:46
old sin? Because Christ does not pour
3:49
new wine into an old and changed heart.
3:54
Let him renew you fast. Then his grace
3:58
will not be wasted in you.
4:00
Therefore, like always, I will never
4:03
stop insisting that before the end of
4:06
every day, make sure that you work you
4:09
do your work so well so that at least
4:12
one person you encounter today says to
4:15
you, "Thank you." And may God you
4:18
worship be praised and glorified. Also,
4:22
never forget to attribute all your
4:24
success to God. Never saw that you are
4:27
successful because you of your own solo
4:30
efforts but from the providence and
4:33
strength that God gives you. Finally,
