Daily Reflection

  • What Really Makes Us Clean?

    Today, we reflect on how true healing and holiness begin not from what we wash away on the outside, but from what we allow God to touch within us. The story of Lourdes and the gospel both remind us that God is concerned not only with physical purity or sickness, but with the deeper condition of the human heart.

  • Fear no End with Jesus

    Reflection Date: November 26, 2024
    What truly lasts? In a world where nothing is permanent, even the best things fade away. Today’s Gospel reminds us not to be deceived by fleeting pleasures or empty promises. True joy is found in Jesus and the treasure of heaven—everything else will pass. Seek what endures forever!
