Minute Meditations

I wanted to spend some time with what Father Cyprian shared. “Dialogue is not a crossing of two monologues,” he said.

Francis knew that idolatry was the key sin in the Old Testament.

St. Teresa of Avila’s prayer life did culminate in the “spiritual rain” of mystical union with Christ.

For decades, the saints have been my mentors in prayer, faith companions whom the centuries cannot separate, beloved friends.

I spend my last night of my pilgrimage to Italy on the balcony of my hotel room drinking wine and looking up at a heavy sky.

This one small moment shows how seeming insecurity, and daring to name it, can also be a pathway toward truth and learning about oneself.
