Minute Meditations

We have an obligation as Christians to make sure we don’t settle for having merely our own needs met.

I see the three temptations as the primal and universal temptations that all humans must face before they dare take on any kind of power—as Jesus is about to do.

Isaiah tries to describe what a just people and country would look like if they fasted from the right things.

Isaiah says explicitly that God prefers another kind of fasting which changes our actual lifestyle and not just punishes our body.

So today you must pray for the desire to desire! Even if you do not feel it yet, ask for new and even unknown desires.

An ego response is always an inadequate or even wrong response to the moment. It will not deepen or broaden life, love, or inner laughter.
