"And so what is holiness? Holiness is the perfect exercise of virtue over vice. Holiness is complete trust that the Father will provide and fulfill all our desires. I repeat: all our desires. Holiness is peace and harmony in our relationships with the people in our life. Holiness is harmony and peace with our obligations as Catholic Christians. Holiness is love for this life that does not forget the Eternal life that is to come. Holiness is a consistent regard and care for those who are most in need. And holiness is a desire to want these things."

FrC's definition of Holiness
Some folks have asked that I post the definition of Holiness that I mentioned during the homily on Saturday.
"And so what is holiness? Holiness is the perfect exercise of virtue over vice. Holiness is complete trust that the Father will provide and fulfill all our desires. I repeat: all our desires. Holiness is peace and harmony in our relationships with the people in our life. Holiness is harmony and peace with our obligations as Catholic Christians. Holiness is love for this life that does not forget the Eternal life that is to come. Holiness is a consistent regard and care for those who are most in need. And holiness is a desire to want these things."
