Choose Life

Jesus says, “Think about the Kingdom first and all the other things you are so worried about will fall into place.

We Are Not Alone

We are not alone. We have each other. 

Listen to the Voice of Love

The voice is very sensitive. It can be very quiet. It is sometimes hard to hear. 

The Center of Being

I know that I have to move from speaking about Jesus to letting him speak within me, from thinking about Jesus to letting him think within me, from acting for and with Jesus to letting him act through me.

Call Me Back to You

I trust in you, Lord, but keep helping me in my many moments of distrust and doubt.

Mercy is Greater

God looks at our world not only with sad or angry eyes; God’s mercy is far greater than God’s sadness and anger.

The Upside-down Kingdom

The Kingdom is where everything is turned upside down. Those who are marginal, those considered not respectable, are suddenly proclaimed as the people who are called to the Kingdom.

Created and Redeemed in Love

I am deeply convinced that the Christian leader of the future is called to be completely irrelevant and to stand in this world with nothing to offer but his or her own vulnerable self.

The Divine Embrace

I realize that all I learned, I knew already. But all I learned was also new. My only hope was to make Jesus more fully the center of my life, the heart of my heart, the lover of my soul, the bridegroom of my spirit.

Speak Gently in My Silence

Dear Lord,

Speak gently in my silence.

Prayer: The Discipline of Attentiveness

Prayer is entering into the presence of God here and now. Prayer is the way in which we become present to the moment and listen to God who is with us. 

Entering Your Silence

Lord Jesus, Help me in this moment to set aside all that has preoccupied me today.

Belonging to All Humanity

The perfect love about which St. John speaks, embraces and transcends all feelings, emotions, and passions. The perfect love that drives out all fear is the divine love in which we are invited to participate. 

A Fearless Space

God alone is free enough from wounds to offer us a fearless space. 

The First Love

The first love says: “You are loved long before other people can love you or you can love others.

Intimacy with God

By entering into the intimacy of our inner most self, Jesus offers us the opportunity to enter into his own intimacy with God.

Place of True Belonging

The perfect love about which St. John speaks, embraces and transcends all feelings, emotions, and passions.

Make Your Home in Me

When Jesus says: “Make your home in me as I make mine in you,” he offers us an intimate place that we can truly call “home.”

Hidden in God

I know that every time I choose for my innocence, I don’t have to worry about the next ten years.

Just Dwell

Be with him and listen. Listen to the One who invites you. Be quiet.
