Homily by +Bp. Romie- Jun Peñalosa
During the Sunday Mass homily at Saint Michael Kalibo, Bishop Romie-Jun Peñalosa emphasized an important truth: Jesus is the true King. As we celebrate the Feast of Christ the King, we are called to place God at the throne of our hearts. Unfortunately, we often forget to center our lives around Him, letting worldly concerns distract us and pull our hearts away from His teachings. However, we must actively strive to make Jesus the focal point of every decision we make. In doing so, we acknowledge Him as the true King of our lives.
While the world offers fleeting pleasures and temporary pursuits, we must remember that these cannot compare to the eternal Kingdom of Jesus Christ. Therefore, we must open our hearts and allow God to build His Kingdom within us. By surrendering to His will, we invite His reign to dominate our lives, transforming our hearts into a true sanctuary for His Kingdom.
