Daily Reflection

  • Feast of Saint Anthony Mary Claret

    Daily life offers us an opportunity to change, grow, and become better people. Through the life of Saint Anthony Mary Claret and the parable of the unfruitful fig tree, we learn that patience is a gift, but it also comes with a responsibility to make good use of the time we have been given.

  • Rules Should Not Hurt

    Today, we are reminded that compassion must guide the way we apply rules, traditions, and responsibilities in our daily lives. Through Jesus’ encounter with a woman who suffered for eighteen years, we are shown that genuine goodness recognizes human pain and responds with mercy.

    Genuine love calls us to treat others with compassion, fairness, and respect, especially those who struggle in life. Through the teachings of Jesus, we learn that loving God and loving our neighbors are inseparable choices that shape our everyday lives.

  • A Hidden Life for God

    Holiness is especially found in your hidden life. There, where you are seen only by God, you must act in a way that pleases God. You must live a life of virtue, prayer, sacrifice and self-giving when only God sees.
  • Love Your Enemies

    Commit yourself this day to prayer for the person you struggle with the most. This prayer will most likely not change your love for them over night, but if you commit to this form of prayer every day, over time God will slowly change your heart and free you of the burden of anger and hurt that may keep you from the love He wants you to have toward all people.
  • Turning the Other Cheek

    Reflect, today, on any relationships that are difficult for you. Especially reflect upon how ready you are to forgive and to turn the other cheek. Doing this may just bring you the peace and freedom you seek in that relationship.
