This episode kicks off a four-part series on a new retreat based on the Litany of Trust from the Sisters of Life. You can purchase a copy of the book at stpaulcenter.com/trust10/
There are some virtues we can work on and grow in — but trust isn’t like that. It’s not your own project. You don’t work on it directly, because it’s the fruit of relationship with the Lord. If you want to develop more trust, focus first on that relationship; on conversion, on healing, on experiencing his goodness alive in you. Because the more you get to know God, the more you find that he is good and worthy of your trust. When you have a chance to trust him (you know the kind of moment), hear him speak gently to you through this line from Sr Faustina: “I don’t want you to give you ‘yes’ to a set of circumstances, but to me.”

God desires no one to be lost. Today, we’ll discuss how we can walk toward life and away from death as a fruit of sin. We’ll also dive deeper..

Suffering and Prayer
In reality, suffering’s out there in many ways, and in most ways, it’s unavoidable. So, “Okay, what do we do with it?”. We’ll unpack this question in today’s episode.
