  • Walk with Me, He said

    And He said, “Take time for yourself. Time for yourself is time for us, for I am always with you, waiting to share my love, my truth, my beauty with you. Let me teach you my ways, for through them is your path to joy and true happiness.”

  • Remembering Pope St. John Paul II

    Our Catholic Writers group leader gave us a writing prompt recently, asking us to write something about Pope St. John Paul II. I thought to share it here for this Pentecost Sunday. I realize that while having many impressions of this saint of our time, I have few specific insights. I was an adult and […]

  • I remember – Sunday, April 10, 2022 — Word on Fire

    Bishop Robert Barron Friends, how dark are the readings for Palm Sunday! We read through Luke’s Passion narrative, leaving out the good news of the Resurrection. To get to the bottom of this emphasis on suffering, to decipher its religious meaning, is to uncover the theological significance of this day. Do you remember the first… Sunday, […]

  • Faith, not fatalism

    “Add Christian hope, born of faith, to the inevitability of death and the entire horizon of human experience is changed. Christian hope does not prevent death. Christian hope does not even delay death. But because Christian hope is hope in eternal life, it changes completely the way we are able to live here and now. […]

  • Dreams and temptations

    The evil one came again last night as I slept. You allow us to be tempted, Holy Father. I guess I should not feel bad about him coming again, especially in my sleep when my guard is down, to tempt and try my faith and my love of You and Your Son, Jesus. But I […]

  • Wastin’ Time

    When we were young and unafraid,We wasted our timeOutdoors at play. Wasted our time learningAnd making mistakes,Red rover, red roverSuch little snowflakes. Too weak to break through,Too small to fight,Too young to realize,The strength of our might. Together in song,Dishes washed and dried,Whether melody or harmony,You always won when we vied. Alli allí in-free,It’s time […]

  • The light of Your holy face

    You allowed me a wonderful blessing recently, Lord, which I hope to capture here in words as transcendent as the experience. How do I explain the experience in a way that enlivens and fills with hope the hearts of others today? It reminded me of the experience of the apostles who witnessed Your transfiguration. Could […]

  • Dad, I need Your help!

    So here I am, Lord. Talking to myself, practicing what I’d like to say to my priest about the on-going situation with my sister. I should probably be talking to you, Father. But we have talked, haven’t we, and I don’t feel much clearer about what to do. All this was prompted by this morning’s […]

  • Prepare my lips, oh Lord

    Father, You gave me your beautiful words during my prayers with You, today at Mass. Help me now, 24 hours hence, to recall them, I pray, and to lift them up to Your glory. Amen. God our Father in Heaven, lean close and beckon to me, that I might lift my heart to You. Let […]

  • How broken must we become

    How broken must we all become, Holy Lord,Before we turn our eyes to You? You allow separation and division to prevail all around us and throughout our world. The plagues of our time, physical and spiritual, they multiply daily. Covid surely, but so too the desecration of Your churches, the corruption of Your priests, evil […]
