Prayer and Meditation

There is nothing wrong with asking for something in prayer, as this names for God the desires of our hearts.

Our need to be both receivers and givers of mercy is the purpose of Christ’s presence among us.

It's often when we feel most abandoned that God is closest to us. We get in the way of that union, but God knows are steps before we make them.

In prayer, we merely keep returning the divine gaze, and we become its reflection, almost in spite of ourselves (2 Corinthians 3:18).

In my best, my most alive moments—in my mystical moments, if you want—I have a profound sense of belonging.

It wasn’t until God’s people utilized the lesson from the desert that they made Jericho’s walls fall to the ground and began the storming of the Promised Land.
