Series on Fire Within by Fr. Thomas Dubay, S.M. (Part 8 of 8)
What happens when we sincerely give ourselves to the lives of prayer and the experience of God? The Fire Within series has been quite intense, but it’s the reality of the depths of the Gospel truly lived. It goes beyond the ordinary simply because living out the Gospel wholeheartedly is not ordinary—but extraordinary. Little by little, Poco a Poco is the place we want to be.
This is the eighth and last episode of our Fire Within series, an invitation:
- To be the ones who say “Yes” to the Lord.
- To be the ones who live differently.
- To be the ones who risk everything, hold nothing back, and give themselves all they are.
- To be the John of the Crosses and the Teresa of Avilas for the next generation.
Which, ultimately, can happen through the radical living of the Gospel, loving God and our neighbors.

(Contemplative) Gains Don’t Sleep
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…

Father of Mercies
Do you trust God’s mercy? We are invited to bring to light those things that we are keeping in the dark and tough and trust that God, in his mercy, will love and care for us there. When we bring something to the Lord, it’s forgiven and gone; he no longer sees us with that. He doesn’t define us as a son or daughter who did this bad thing. To the Father’s eyes, we are not defined by our sin and our weakness…

Jesus’s Favorite Things: Quality Time
Do you also spend quality time with Jesus? Part of Jesus’s favorite thing is to be with us. He desires to be with us and wants to spend time with us. He chooses people to be with Him as He’s with His Father. Jesus has given himself to us in the most holy Eucharist. It’s a true testament that He chooses to provide himself with his love and that he desires to spend quality time with us, and a way in which we can love…
