But, Lord, It Is So Difficult

(Image Source- Wikimedia Commons) Jesus warned that sometimes His teachings would bring conflict to those who accepted and lived them (Luke 12: 49-53)…being true to the Gospel means I will have to stand up for what I believe even if it causes division among those with whom I live and work.   Jesus, do not let my distaste for conflict keep me from supporting and living Your profound teachings.   One Bread, One Body

Let Us Adore Him!

Let us adore Jesus in our hearts, who spent 30 years out of 33 in silence; who began His public life by spending 40 days in silence; who often retired alone to spend the night on a mountain in silence.  He, who spoke with authority, now spends His earthly life in silence.  Let us adore Jesus in the Eucharistic silence.  (Blessed Teresa of Calcutta) 

Become Living Love

We know how much blessing has come from the silent adoration in our churches, we know that the greatest saints and charity have been nourished by adoration of Christ, who is present, because in adoring Him they learned His love, they ate and drank His love fully and completely, and they themselves became living love.  (Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI ) [My most recent book, I Thirst For Your Love , has been awarded a Seal of Approval by the Catholic Writers Guild,  and is available here .]
