Our Father’s Embrace
On this Trinity Sunday, don’t fret if you are unable to understand (let alone explain) the nature of the Trinity! Allow yourself to be scooped up into your Father’s embrace and share that love with others. 😊
Shedding light on the “dark night”
We experience all sorts of darkness in our active and spiritual lives. Yet it is a common error to refer to all of it as a dark night of the soul. With depression and suicide epidemic in the US, it seems to be an apt time to look into this difference more closely.
With bands of love
Why is it so hard to walk the talk of Faith? Why do we only permit God to refine us to a certain point, but no farther? “I drew them with bands of love” (Hosea 11:4)
Gifts
Gifts come in all sizes and shapes, and in the spiritual life can come in the most unexpected of ways.
Honesty and discernment
Have you ever had an important choice to make and didn’t know how to discern the best decision? Our rich Catholic heritage has the answer: “Everyone must keep in mind that in all that concerns the spiritual life, his progress will be in proportion to his surrender of self-love and of his own will and interests.” (St. Ignatius of Loyola, sp. ex. 189)
