Minute Meditations

Christians have often been poor at practicing the Sabbath, imagining it to be a Jewish practice for which Jesus showed apparent disregard.

Change messes with us. I wish it weren’t so. Change messes with the tidy (manageable and predictable) script we tote for mental security.

We have become skilled at (and consumed by) emotional multitasking.

Through all life’s changes, nothing can separate us from the love of God.

Perhaps the most beautiful truth about prayer is that it is never really ours.

Francis himself realized that prayer or fasting cannot change one’s heart. Only God can.
