Sometime in February 2015 I wrote a reflection on Poverty with two accompanying poems. One poem had to do with the personal acceptance of seeking a life without attachment to any type of material possessions; i.e. the choice of finding a connection to God without distractions of competing with ones...

No one can begin a new life, unless he repent of the old.

The first sacrament in the Church is baptism, the sacrament of initiation. In baptism we are freed from the sin of Adam, receive God's gift of grace and become members of his Church; we receive the gift of faith, the Holy Spirit and the promise of eternal life. Without baptism we cannot receive the ... (www.catholic365.com)

Day 8 – Our Father

When of the most fascinating and important parts of the prayer is the line, “Give us this day our daily bread”. The word used for “daily bread” is epiousios. What is interesting about this word is that it is seldom used in Greek. In fact, scholars can find no example of its use in any ancient writ... (www.catholic365.com)

I often wonder about evil, its existence and the effect it has upon so many people. If we think about evil and attempt to categorize the many different threads that are connected to this one abstract, yet real obtrusiveness in human history, we could absolutely go berserk in trying to list them....

There is no joy in this world like union with Christ. The more we can feel it, the happier we are ... With your witness, with your smile, you need to let others know that the same Father loves them, too.

Christ is at work in my life. This I know. Lent and Easter have given me the opportunity again this year to reflect on the promise of life everlasting, and how that promise has been made to me through the death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ.... (www.catholic365.com)

Day 7 - Be Perfect...

In the second half of Matthew Chapter 5 we see Jesus establish a new way of looking at moral responsibility. We go from “though shall not kill” to “love your enemy”. This is so well known to us now that its revolutionary nature is no longer appreciated.... (www.catholic365.com)

A man recently suicidal came to the adoration chapel and started ranting. The Lord, I felt, understood his pain. When his rant ended and he said, "You are right.

Day 6 – the Beatitudes

First, some people try to diminish the accuracy of the recording of the Beatitudes by comparing it to the other Gospels, pointing out the differences and concluding that Jesus never actually gave this sermon but rather that this is a compilation of ‘things Jesus said’.... (www.catholic365.com)

Fear of Deception

The biggest stumbling block to Life in Christ is fear. Many Catholics are leery of any inner, spiritual revelations from their Heavenly Father because they are afraid of being deceived.

Conversations with Jesus

Hey Jesus, here is the thing, I am well aware and so grateful for all your Holy Spirit has done for me and in me. The person I used to be is no longer ruling my life.
