Minute Meditations

Christ came among us as God and man by means of a human birth through Mary, the Spouse of the Holy Spirit.

No matter what I come to expect, no matter how large and creative I think my imagination is, I always fall short of what God wants to accomplish.

Mutual giving and receiving is the bedrock of Franciscan peacemaking.

Anything that prevents us from following Jesus with our whole heart, anything that holds us back, is a stumbling block to Christian discipleship

Time and again, my little worldview is shaken by something wider; my plans are almost always dashed by bigger, better ones.

While there is nothing wrong with hoping for success in our lives, our faith is destined for problems if it becomes an expectation we cannot live without.
