Imagine yourself three years ago. What were you like? Most likely, you have grown and matured, and the vast majority of those three years were probably really ordinary; they were probably boring. We are now in ordinary time, and the Gospel is for this Sunday. The disciples begin their three-year journey with Jesus. Imagine the disciples at the beginning of this time, and imagine who they are at the end of that time; they were friends with Jesus. They spent every single day with Jesus, and the vast majority of that time with the Lord was probably really ordinary and sometimes boring, but growth happens in ordinary time. My invitation to all of you is not to be afraid of the ordinary, to embrace the ordinary, and to spend time with Jesus daily. You can become the saint that you’re called to be. Don’t be afraid of the ordinary; embrace it.

Convicted About Jesus
Last year, in a faraway magical land known as Italia. A study figured out what month the average Italian gives up on their New Year’s resolution. And you may have guessed it, it’s February. If you didn’t know, February is one month after January. That’s not much time. The realization is that we want to follow through on things; we don’t want to give up. But the problem is that we are not convicted enough to be able to…

God’s Radiating Love
This has got bad news written all over it. If you have ever seen “Chernobyl,” “Godzilla,” or “The Simpsons,” you know that radiation is silent. You don’t feel anything, and it can change you. Similarly, adoration of the Blessed Sacrament is just like that, only it gives you life and doesn’t kill you. When we go to adoration, it is silent. We don’t feel anything, but it is super…
