How can we live and create a space for contemplation, for silence, to be able to hear the voice of God in our lives? God is always there. He’s always giving himself to us and always longing to speak to us, but living in the constant influx of noise and immediate gratification profoundly affects our contemplative experience—our ability to sit in prayer for long periods to wait and sit for God. That is why it’s so important to retrain our hearts and our minds to receive Him. This episode talks about strengthening the will and creating a lifestyle that supports and enhances the will to grow in discipline, freedom, and our ability to make a free and total Yes to the Lord and his invitation.

Sometimes, having a very happy-looking social media feed is much easier than having a happy heart and home in reality. But we’re not going for things to look good; instead, we’ll be good and persevere in this goodness…

Learning To Be Loved
There is the undeniable temptation to achieve and perform in order prove that we are good enough. But, it shouldn’t be all about that. We are gifts to the Lord not because of our perfection but only because of who we are. We can get caught up…
