What motivates you to keep going? Why do you dedicate your time and talents to a specific work? These questions have only one and the best answer: LOVE.
Love itself is a mystery. We cannot explain it well. Some would say it is an emotion while others say it is not. Each person have their own definition of love. However, does man still apply love in their lives? The very meaning of love has been tarnished and it is downgraded to the lowest level.
The Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus reminds us of the splendor of love. It is the greatest of all the virtues. Our life owes its meaning in love for God is Love. Because of love we were created and fashioned in His own image and likeness. Our life should revolve and evolve in love. In the seminary, we are called to fall in love with Christ for "priesthood is the love of the Heart of Jesus," as St. John Mary Vianney said. We should be formed after the Heart of Christ Who is willing to offer Himself for the life of the world.

Love should motivate us to keep on going. Love must be the reason why we dedicate our time and talents to a specific work. It is for this same reason why we share and imitate the Love we receive from God.
