How good are you at detachment? God uses everything in our lives as opportunities to draw near but do we truly discern which is the better door we open?
Continue reading “Equal Mindedness”“All the things in this world are gifts of God, created for us, to be the means by which we can come to know him better, love him more surely, and serve him more faithfully.”
St. Ignatius of Loyola
Eternal life is knowing a personal God. Prayer begins by entering that relationship of perfect love.

“In this year of jubilee, then, every one of you shall return to his own property.” Leviticus 25:13
Hope is a virtue we are given by Christ. Through our baptism, the old person dies and we are made new, with gifts from our Heavenly Father.

Noticing God’s presence in my life is a gift of grace. During my recent prayer time, I was drawn to Rembrandt’s The Sea of Galilee painting in a reflection I was reading. This picture holds the weight of a thousand prayers. It doesn’t just depict a storm. It knows one and somehow, it knows mine.

It reminds me that His desire isn’t just for the world, but for me personally.
