Minute Meditations

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.

One of our deepest longings as human beings, as social beings, is to be understood even in our most perplexing and difficult moments.

On this Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe, let us first of all gratefully remember her visit and maternal closeness.
