Daily Reflection

  • February and Presentation

    Today, we echo the Presentation of the Lord, where a child carried into the Temple becomes the light for all nations. Like Simeon in the gospel, the story invites Asia to recognize salvation by lives offered humbly to God.

Upcoming

  • Familiarity Bridges Contempt

    Today we reflect on how sacred spaces and sacred persons can be dishonored when reverence is lost. The closure of a chapel and the rejection of Jesus in his hometown reveal how disbelief and disrespect wound both faith and community.
    Reflection Date: February 04, 2026
  • God Heals

    Today, we reflect on healing that happens when faith persists despite fear, delay, and public scrutiny. The story of Saint Blaise and the gospel of Mark reveal that trust in God can bring life where sickness and despair seem final.

Previous

  • The Judgmental Heart

    Reflect, today, upon these challenging words from Jesus. Read the Scripture passage above a few times and then prayerfully ponder it. Use it as an examination of your own conscience. Try to be honest, humble and attentive to any ways that Jesus speaks this to you.
  • Calming Life’s Storms

    Reflect, today, on what frightens you the most each day. What is it that shakes your faith? Turn to Jesus in the midst of that and know He is there ready to bring peace and calm.
  • Forgiving Others

    Reflect, today, upon any lingering feelings of anger you experience. Address those feelings by the free and total choice to forgive the person with whom you are angry.
