woe to me if I do not preach

“Brothers and sisters: If I preach the gospel, this is no reason for me to boast, for an obligation has been imposed on me, and woe to me if I do not preach it!” (1 COR 9: 16)
Preaching the Gospel is an amazing honor, but also a duty and huge responsibility–to preach about Our Lord only, to show Him only, to direct everybody to Him only, and to forget about ourselves and focus on Him only. Our Lord is the only One Who loves us in an amazing way and Who “took away our infirmities and bore our diseases.” When we preach Him, we help our brothers and sister to follow Him and enjoy His presence.
“Christ took away our infirmities and bore our diseases.” (Gospel Acclamation)
