  • The Faith of the Canaanite Woman

    Today, we confront the walls that people build between one another and discover how faith can challenge prejudice, exclusion, and the tendency to decide who deserves to be heard. The encounter between Jesus and the Canaanite woman reminds us that genuine faith can cross boundaries and open our hearts to people whom society easily ignores.

Previous

  • Single-Minded Devotion

    Reflect, today, upon how single-minded your devotion is to our Lord. From there, ponder, also, if you are more attached to the good feelings and consolations you seek or if your devotion is deeper, focused more on the transforming message our Lord wants to preach to you.
  • Keeping Holy the Sabbath

    Reflect, today, upon any tendency you have in your relationships with those closest to you toward being excessive and distorted in your criticism. Do you find yourself obsessing over the apparent minor faults of others on a regular basis?
  • To Fast or Not to Fast

    Reflect, today, upon your approach to fasting and other penitential practices. Do you fast? Do you make regular sacrifices so as to strengthen your will and help you to turn more fully to Christ? Or has this healthy spiritual practice been somewhat neglected in your life?
