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.

Would you receive the Father’s unconditional love if you were the prodigal son? The Father wants us to convert from a conditional, perfectionistic way of experiencing God to a place of just being unconditionally loved by Him. But we can sometimes hold onto shame for security. What is asked of us is to leave behind that shame—let the shame and self-contempt crumble. We don’t need to “pay rent” to be loved by the heavenly Father…

Holy Week and Total Gift (Lent 2024)
How do you intend to receive Jesus’ total gift for you this holy week? The fast during Lent is not to show Jesus how tough we are; it’s to show him how poor we are.
