On that day, Jesus went out of

the house and sat down by the

sea. Such large crowds gathered

around him that he got into a

boat and sat down, and the whole

crowd stood along the shore.

And he spoke to them at length in

parables, saying: “A sower went

out to sow. And as he sowed,

some seed fell on the path, and

birds came and ate it up. Some

fell on rocky ground, where it

had little soil. It sprang up at

once because the soil was not

deep, and when the sun rose it

was scorched, and it withered for

lack of roots. Some seed fell

among thorns, and the thorns

grew up and choked it. But some

seed fell on rich soil and

produced fruit, a hundred or sixty

or thirtyfold. Whoever has ears

ought to hear.”

Virtually every rational human being accepts as axiomatic the absolute necessity to

belong, to exist within the context of a community, to depend, in even a small way, on the

existence of others. This associative dependence is an essential element of our humanity,

gifted to us by God, a vital ingredient of our well-being. The English poet John Donne wrote

“No man is an island, Entire of itself. Every man is a piece of the continent, A part of the

main” and Joan Baez sang “No man is an island, No man stands alone, Each man’s joy is joy

to me, Each man’s grief is my own.”

God created us to depend on one another, to rely on one another for help and support.

After God created man “The Lord God said: ‘It is not good for the man to be alone. I will

make a suitable partner for him” [Gn 2:18]. God recognized from the very beginning, that His

creation was not designed to be a solitary creature; that man could not long survive without

companionship, without relationships with others.

Thus we recognize and admit that our human nature is fundamentally a social nature,

designed for interdependence with others: family, friends, neighbors, tribes, communities,

nations, and humanity in its entirety.

When God “formed man out of the clay of the ground and blew into his nostrils the

breath of life” [Gn 2:7], He gave man a soul and the ability to live in His presence for all

eternity, but only if the soul was pure, sanctified, and in a state of holiness pleasing to God.

Man’s arrogance and disobedience to God’s covenant resulted in the loss of sanctification and

an estrangement from God’s presence and without God’s help man’s salvation would be

forever lost.

Despite our inclination to sin, God loves us and desires for us to love Him and to

ultimately dwell with Him for all eternity. And so, He gifts us graces to help us regain the

sanctification that was lost through our own sin.

Salvation demands a soul that is filled with sanctifying grace, “an habitual gift, a stable

and supernatural disposition that perfects the soul itself to enable it to live with God, to act by

His love.” [CCC 2000] “It is the sanctifying or deifying grace received in Baptism.” [CCC

1999] And as Saint Paul describes it “whoever is in Christ is a new creation: the old things

have passed away; behold, new things have come. And all this is from God, who has

reconciled us to himself through Christ and given us the ministry of

reconciliation” [2 Cor 5:17‑18].

When we are born our souls, because of the stain of original sin, are unprepared for

heaven. What is missing is the sanctifying grace from God that is “infused by the Holy Spirit

into our soul to heal it of sin and to sanctify it” [CCC 1999]. It is through the Sacrament of

Baptism that our souls first become sanctified and it is through the Sacrament of

Reconciliation that we can regain sanctification when we commit mortal sin. There is nothing

that we can do on our own to sanctify our soul. It is a supernatural gift from God and only

through His boundless love and forgiveness can we receive it.
