Minute Meditations

The Peace Prayer reminds us to brighten the lives of others with deeds that manifest our familial bonds as children of a loving, forgiving God.

Dark days can mean dark moods. This natural turn of the seasons helps explain the timing of Christmas.

Knowing that God not only knows but experienced what it was to be a human being should give us patience with our weakness and joy in our strength.

Christmas allows a break from that gray depression, an inner darkness reflected in the winter sky. 

The gratuity of grace is always unending and never expiring.

Despair descends when we feel helpless and trapped in a dire situation. When hope breaks ground, we feel empowered.
