Daily Reflection

  • The Faith of the Syrophoenician Woman

    Today, we reflect on how faith can emerge from unexpected places and challenge comfortable boundaries. The story of the Syrophoenician woman and the gospel both show that genuine trust in God can widen hearts and challenge assumptions.

  • The Other Miracle

    Today, we reflect on how God’s compassion is always repeated and renewed, never exhausted by one miracle. The story of the two feedings and the gospel remind us that divine generosity meets human need in every time and place.

  • Healing is also Social

    Today, we reflect on how healing often begins when someone is finally heard and understood. The story of Decapolis and the gospel both show that restoration is not only physical but deeply human and communal.

Previous

  • The Glory of God

    Reflect, today, upon Jesus’ act of perfectly fulfilling the will of the Father in His human nature. Even though our Lord was divine, He was also fully human. He, therefore, perfectly understands your human struggles and weaknesses.
  • Peace? Or the World?

    Reflect, today, upon the exceptionally important truth—that Jesus wants you to know His peace in your heart. And He wants that peace to sustain you. Reflect upon the interior battle that may take place within you between the world and the peace of Christ.
  • Deepening Your Understanding

    Reflect, today, upon whether you struggle at all with indifference toward the mysteries of life. If so, commit yourself to be more like these disciples who intentionally grappled with all that Jesus spoke.
