Faith is Not Transactional - Period! What does this mean?

Description

A period ends a sentence - it signals completion, "no more". But what does period mean in the context of faith?

Fr. Ino reflects that often in life, even in our relationship with God, we treat love, service, and faith as transactions. We give expecting to receive. We serve expecting rewards. But true discipleship is not a trade; it is trust.

To love is to love - period.

To serve is to serve - period.

To believe is to trust, even when prayers seem unanswered. Because faith is not about what we get, but who we give ourselves to - God. "It is You, Lord - not I. Thy will be done."

- Sunday Homily by Fr. Victorino Cueto, C.Ss.R. (5 October 2025)
