Our need for accompaniment and continuing conversion

We have to be more aware of this crying need.

- Fr. Roy Cimagala

More than that, we have to come up with plans and strategies that would effectively address this need whose neglect has spawned a lot of scandals even among supposedly “good” people like the clergy and other religious leaders.

We cannot deny that even if we can consider ourselves as already quite mature, so gifted with impressive personal qualities that would make us believe that we can easily tackle the different challenges and trials we meet in life, we actually continue to have weaknesses that can act up in some hidden way.

We should never forget that despite our spiritual and moral strength, we will always have the so-called “feet of clay” (cf. Daniel 2,33) which means that our earthly and human powers are actually unstable. Just a little disturbance of a temptation, falling into sin would just be a matter of time.
