Series on The Practice of the Presence of God (Part 4 of 4)
There’s a lot happening in the world we live in, and nothing much we can do about it. During this difficult time we need to pay attention to the Lord—to be immersed in the mystery of God, his goodness and his mercy.
It’s good to understand what is and what’s not in our circle of influence even though it might be in our own country, group, family or even in our own life. Let’s discern with the Lord, what’s His and whats ours to deal with together. The beauty and grace of it is that we have the freedom to surrender all the things we cannot control, and bring it God. Let’s not fall to the pattern of distraction, discouragement, despair. We need to find a way to encounter the light to push back the darkness. There’s hope to find peace amidst chaos.

And the stronger our will, the more we’ll be able to choose the good even when…

Worship and Warmth
In our faith we sometimes find ourselves in the extremes. We become either strict and liturgical or warm and casual but the truth is our faith should not be “either, or” but “both, and”. We need to be in this place where we are able to both worship and adore the Lord and…

Suffering and Prayer
In reality, suffering’s out there in many ways, and in most ways, it’s unavoidable. So, “Okay, what do we do with it?”. We’ll unpack this question in today’s episode. We are invited to unite our suffering with Jesus and offer it to Him. As we suffer generously and give that to the Lord, one of the fruits of it is that it creates the space and cultivates…
