December 9 – The Freedom That Leads to Heaven

Whoever listens to God’s will and fulfills it deserves eternal happiness in heaven.
He experiences great satisfaction and peace of conscience.
But whoever follows his own will earns eternal condemnation,
and even in this life suffers from remorse and various temporal punishments."
- Father Wenanty Katarzyniec
Father Wenanty’s words are simple, yet incredibly demanding. They strike at the very heart of our daily life:
Whom do I allow to lead my life - God or myself?
A person who seeks and fulfills God’s will may not have an easier life, but he possesses something far greater: peace of conscience. It is a peace the world cannot give, because it is born from obedience to the One who knows our paths better than we do. On the other hand, living according to one’s own preferences, without asking God for direction, brings immediate consequences to the heart: restlessness, chaos, running away from the truth about oneself, and in time - inner wounds. This is not punishment from outside. It is the consequence of a heart distancing itself from its Source.
God’s will is not a limitation. It is the most beautiful form of freedom, because it leads to a goal untouched by time: eternal happiness. Father Wenanty reminds us that this choice is not abstract - it happens every day: in words, decisions, relationships, duties, thoughts, desires. Every moment can be a step toward heaven or a step away from it.
Reflection for today:
- Do I ask God for His will each day — or do I choose only what is convenient for me?
- Do the decisions I make bring peace to my heart, or do they create unrest?
- In which area of my life do I need to return to obedience to God today?
