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.

Christian Contentment
In our world of wanting more and of endlessly upgrading, we have to get good at saying, “Okay, that’s enough.” There’s a game of constant consumption and if we’re not careful, it’s going to take advantage of us. Don’t get played! Simplicity isn’t about getting rid of everything. It’s saying “no” to things you need to say “no” to…
