She reminded them of their goal and purpose. She said journey becomes fruitful only when we think of our goal. She invited them to begin their spiritual journey by offering themselves into the hands of the potter ‘Jesus’ to be molded by Him and grow into His Image and Likeness. She challenged them to focus on Him who is their Divine Star, to keep searching for Him by putting little more efforts in their spiritual journey, getting deeper into themselves to meet the Divine ‘Jesus’. She reminded them that they are chosen by the Lord, He wants them to work in His Vineyard and continue His mission of Love.
