Second Week of Advent
God doesn’t make empty promises. But for many people…there are promises they won’t see fulfilled in their lifetimes. In receiving his promises, we also have to receive his timeline. What does it look like to let God take his time? Start with stillness; sit in it; talk to him about it; think about when God has fulfilled his promises in your life. He hasn’t abandoned you before, and he won’t abandon you now. Start off with what we know is true. Either the Father is good, or he’s not. Either the Father is present, or he’s not. We have to evangelize ourselves with the truth that is more real than suffering.

We Are Not Self-Defined
There’s always some mystery involved in an anointing. God doesn’t select the person we expect; this happens throughout the Old Testament and with the Apostles. There’s a mystery of who God calls and how God calls. God still calls really talented people, but not because they’re talented. We are not our skills…

The Body and Blood of Christ
Do we still know deep within ourselves how amazing the gift of the Eucharist is? Sometimes, we can forget and take that for granted, but it’s incredible how Jesus gives Himself to us in the form of bread and wine through the Eucharist.

Hope For Everything
