Each one of us has been called by Christ to cooperate in his work of salvation. We all have responsibilities for helping to build up the body of Christ.

Francis and his early followers remind us that it is not place or circumstances that make us free, it is the heart that makes us free when it is turned toward God.

“Ezra” and “Nehemiah”–narratives of return and restoration–deal with the postexilic period of God’s people. But there was still a long way to go. God’s providence isn’t always fulfilled effortlessly.

Jesus is God-with-us, the human One who mediates our relationship with God for all eternity. What happened in Jesus, however, must take place in all humanity (and creation)

As God bends low to love us where we are, we must be open to welcome God in our lives, to embrace this God of humble love and to allow God to live in us in every way.

Paul addresses the precept of faithfulness to us, as well as to Timothy. We are called to be faithful to Christ and obedient to the Father.

Through his life in Christ he came to see that Christ cannot be limited to a single human person; rather, Christ encompasses the whole creation.

If we are to love as God has loved us, then our lives must involve renunciation so that we can make room for the rest of the creation.

Paul acknowledges that religion can be a source of gain, but spiritual gain. Perhaps we should ask ourselves what we hope to gain from our religious practices.
