Learning To Pray

This episode contains a few ideas on learning to read the faces of those around us so that we can help them better in their spiritual life.

"Are there moments when you place yourself quietly in the Lord’s presence, when you calmly spend time with Him, when you bask in his gaze? Do you let his fire inflame your heart? Unless you let Him warm you more and more with his love and tenderness, you will not catch fire. How will you then be able to set the hearts of others on fire by your words and witness?” (Pope Francis)

"Who do you say that I am?" (The Lord)

Get traction in your life by discovering what you are in this world for.

This brief meditation deals with a few manifestations of apostolic zeal.

"To anyone who has, more will be given; and from the one who has not, even what he seems to have will be taken away." (The Lord)

"It is now the hour for us to rise from sleep, because now our salvation is nearer than when we came to believe. The night is far advanced; the day is at hand. Let us therefore lay aside the works of darkness, and put on the armour of light." (Rom 13,11)

Humility vs. Pride

Reality vs. LaLaLand

Honesty vs. Hypocrisy

"This episode is a nice invitation to all of us to drop our excuses and to get to work; yeah, let's do it!" (Joel-Isaiah McIntyre)

"Life grows by being given away, and it weakens in isolation and comfort. Indeed, those who enjoy life most are those who leave security on the shore and become excited by the mission of communicating life to others. Here we discover a profound law of reality: that life is attained and matures in the measure that it is offered up in order to give life to others. This is certainly what mission means." (Pope Francis)
