Week 3: Prayer and Devotions (continued)
In Section 2 of the YOUCAT p. 192, we read:
“Teacher, what…must I do to have eternal life?”
Jesus says, “If you would enter life keep the commandments” (Mt 19:17)
Then he adds “and come, follow me,” (Mt 19:21)
Christianity is more than a correct life and keeping the commandments. Being a Christian is a living relationship with Jesus.
