Love demands everything. Not only carrying the cross — dying on it. We do hard things, but not for the sake of doing hard things. When modeled after the way that Jesus did hard things, it’s a stepping stone that leads to the cross. This episode goes through all this by one of the desert’s more intense moments: a helicopter rescue. Listen to what that experience was like…and how, afterwards, the journey continued.
This Lent, we’ll be working through Born of Fire by Fr. Innocent Montgomery, CFR.

He’s not afraid or scandalized of how messy our lives are…

Jesus, Look At My Heart
Do you know anybody who wants to work out all of the time? Unlikely. But nobody who gets in that workout says afterwards, “That was a waste of time. Why’d I bother?” Even more with prayer. When you take the time, it’s always, “I’m so glad I did that.” Eternal perspective changes how you use your time. What are we made for? To live forever.
It’s key to commit to prayer; to schedule it and keep honor it through intention and discipline. But, then, how do we maintain prayer as an intimate relationship and not let it become a routine? The answer to one question: where’s your heart in it? Going through the motions to get it done is not the point.
