Life of prayer is worth going “all-in” on. In this mystical identity, there’s an invitation to let go of ourselves. Prayer is not authentic if we are stuck or focused on ourselves. Prayer changes as we let go of our own notion of what it should be. We are constantly invited for our hearts to be attentive and open to become mystics — to become men and women of prayer. It anchors us in the reality that we are made for relationship, we’re made for prayer, and we are made to live in intimacy with God every single day of our lives.
As we enter the Holy week, we’re inviting everyone to let the truth be true and let God, be God.
This Lent, we’ll be working through Born of Fire by Fr. Innocent Montgomery, CFR.

A Really Good Episode
Because of fear and insecurity that is ruling our life, we tend to control everything and self-protect. We look inward and we really don’t see what God is doing—we don’t really trust anyone around us. We don’t have to be afraid anymore. There…

C’est La Confiance
Are you worried for 2024? Worry is a lack of confidence, and we can be worried about much stuff. The invitation from St. Therese and our Lord is to have confidence in Him. We who run in the way of love shouldn’t be thinking of suffering that can take place in the future. That’s a lack of confidence. The complete trust that becomes an abandonment in love sets us free from obsessive calculations…

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…
