It is easy to fall into the temptation and believe that we can’t do it, that we can’t live a holy life.
Although the ordinary life is simple, hidden, and seems kind of normal, there’s so much sanctity in our vocations that are being lived faithfully. It might not be flashy or spectacular but it’s one of the most real ways we can grow in holiness. We may not be in the chapel or church making a eucharistic holy hour, but no matter what our day-to-day experiences look like or what daily lives we are accustomed to, God is there.
There’s something extraordinary in our ordinary experiences. It is possible to be in relationship with God, amidst everything that we do. We just need to make the space and time no matter how small and let Him enter into our lives.

A Father’s Faithfulness
David sinned when he wasn’t doing what he was supposed to be doing; when he had pulled back from God’s calling. We have to be careful of comfort and of being distracted, because it leads to a place of being unfaithful. Instead, we have to keep moving forward in God’s will, which can regularly take us to less…

Jubilee and Christ the High Priest
What if your true identity is more sacred than you ever imagined? Jesus is the High Priest, the one mediator who intercedes for us at the Father’s right hand, offering not just prayers but our wounds, our brokenness, and all of humanity’s sins back to God.
