RETURNING TO THE WELL
God calls me to give my entire heart when it is most difficult.
FAILING AT FLOSSING… AND OTHER EXERCISES IN HUMILITY
But if I am truly being honest with myself, how different am I from the mother in the Gospel?
WHAT WORDS EMPOWER YOU?
God's love strengthens and uplifts me to be compassionate and recognize my belovedness and that of those with whom I may be struggling.
LISTENING TO GOD’S GENTLE VOICE
Lord, help me listen to your small voice that whispers, “I am with you. You are seen, known, and loved.”
UNCHAIN MY HEART
I entrust these chains to God, asking for the strength to overcome and handle these things little by little.
THE SHADOW OF FEAR AND LIGHT OF LOVE
Jesus offers us a way to live more fully though love and mercy.
FINDING REST IN GOD
Jesus reminds us that it’s not that God made us for sabbath, but made sabbath for us.
HOLDING DOWN THE SAND
God always meets me where I truly am, which is not necessarily where I think I am or where I want to be.
THY WILL, NOT MINE BE DONE
For years, I used to have this horrible feeling that God forgot to give me the handbook to life everyone else seemed to have.
THERE IS A TIME FOR EVERYTHING
This Lent, I pray for the grace to recognize what time God is calling me to and for the grace to answer that call.
WOUNDED HEALER
Am I truly willing to deny myself, take up my cross daily, and follow him, even if it means putting my desires and comforts aside?
ALLOWING OURSELVES TO BE SEEN AS WE ARE
I need reminding that I can more powerfully receive Jesus’ healing and forgiveness when I allow myself to be seen as I really am.
PEACE BE WITH YOU, AGAIN and AGAIN …
The image of Jesus going through locked doors is a most consoling image of faith for me.
REAL OR FAKE?
Everything fell into place as they recognized their own truth as disciples and believers in the Resurrected Christ.
In the moments in which I am able to respond to God's invitations, I am met with an abundance of grace.
QUIET COURAGE
Everything in the world is presented to us as a way of knowing God because God's presence can mostly be found in the everyday activities of ordinary life.
