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.
You can find the Presence of God challenge in the Hallow app or this link, where you can join in and reflect with Fr. Mark-Mary on The Practice of the Presence of God by Brother Lawrence.

The Resourcefulness of God
The Lord doesn’t need a perfect moment to do what he does. He can use—and has used — all the secular events and moments in history to bring about his plan. The detours and decisions and even things that feel like inconveniences — he’ll work with it all. And it’s not that he’s just done this once or twice…

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…
