Healing always comes from within, and the body can heal itself when its members remain connected to it. Such is the case for the Church and her members.
Jesus can do far more with my poverty than my generosity; He can do far more with my littleness than my talents.
Why does the Church pray for the dead? Because every person will exist forever, and because you are free.
Freedom is at the service of love. The first All Saints celebration down to our own day commemorates the members of our family who know and live the truth of who they are: children of a good and loving father.
Jesus is completely unafraid of worldly power. Am I?
“They will recline at table.” Reclining reflects defenselessness, peace, and vulnerability. Do I want to recline at table?
What we do in this life echoes for eternity. Say yes!
“The LORD hears the cry of the poor.” Do I pray in a way that He hears me?
John Paul II, like any authentic Jayhawk, trusted Jesus Christ. JP2 was convinced that we can only find ourselves in Christ. His life speaks volumes to us; Jesus is Who He says He is. Be not afraid!
“Gird your loins!” Am I awake and aware, or am I distracted and asleep?
Nothing matters more to God than real love. Abraham trusted this love; the Devil cannot comprehend it. Does self-sacrificing love matter to me?
Do you know the One whom we worship? He doesn't ask us to slay Amalekites! He asks us to praise and thank Him because we are not the Savior; we are children; men and women who are “drawn from water.”
Ignatius is a very important name that Catholics should know. He learned to follow Christ through the witness of the apostles, and his writings and life reveal to us that the Catholic faith is true. The witness of this saint continues to draw people into the embrace of the Catholic Church, because faith comes from what is heard.
The Pharisees have an agenda which moves them to interrogate Jesus and act with hostility towards Him…am I listening to Jesus or to my own agenda?
“LORD, increase our faith…God did not give us a spirit of cowardice, but rather of power and love and self-control.” Life is the fruit of a love that refuses to bow to fear.
Do I let the LORD of history touch my life and my story? What does He have access to in me?
Do you live in the real world, or do you live in America?
One of the littlest saints in history is also one of the greatest. She made space in her life for the Father. She trusted in and loved this Father. Do I?
Jesus knows where He is headed and who He is walking with. Do I know where I am going, and who I am walking with?
Archangels are real, and they want to help us. They confront the great accuser and listen to their love for life…do I?
The greatest Jayhawk in history rose from the dead. Are you listening to Him?
“Herod kept trying to see Him.” Herod wants to see Jesus, but not for good reason. Herod wants to see Jesus, but will not uproot himself in order to see Him. Do you want to see Jesus? Why do you want to see Jesus? Will you uproot yourself in order to go in search of Him?
We are a community that burns for the treasure of the Church. Light is necessary in order for me and for others to be able to see. Let the holy fire fall and ignite your story and this world!
Prudence lies at the service of what is true and what is good. Prudence leads me into sanity and sanctity. It is time to leave America and enter into reality!
The Church by her nature “goes out” she is merciful; working for the flourishing of everyone.
“I say to you, arise.” The Lord's heart is moved for us—especially in the face of death.
Moms say “yes” to suffering love. We often fear it. Don't be afraid of love that suffers…because that's real love!
Are you living for something that is worth the cost of your life?
You have to see in order to know what you're looking at! Can you see? Are you confident in what—in who—you are looking at?
Are you a Christian? “To you who hear, I say…”
Blessed are the hungry…really?! What are you hungering for? Where do you go to satiate your hunger?
Jesus “made a public spectacle” of sin and death, “leading them away in triumph.” The people of Tyre and Sidon came to hear Him and to be healed. Why do you come to Him?
“You Bethlehem, too small to be among the clans of Judah, from you shall come forth for me one who is to be ruler in Israel…He shall be peace.” God chooses and looks for what the world does not. His peace is not found where the world gathers!
“In every age, O Lord, you have been our refuge.” Celebrating the canonization of St. Carlo Acutis for the age of today!
Mother Teresa made space for God in her life. She was focused on listening to God. People who listen to God always receive Him with fresh wineskins.
Simon Peter doesn't seem to realize how much Jesus sees of him. Do you know how much Jesus sees of you and in you? Don't be afraid!
Jesus wants your attention because He wants you to hear the good news of the Kingdom of God! Does He have your attention?
It is the devil who is convinced that God is a taker—a destroyer—NOT a giver of life.
Is the Spirit of the Lord and His anointing on me? Do I have an awareness of how God is winking at me? You do NOT have Him figured out!
A humble person stands in truth. Do I live in the truth that: 1. God is alive 2. I am poor, crippled, lame, and blind. 3. Despite all of this, I am perfectly loved
St. John the Baptist died as he lived. “He must increase, I must decrease.” The greatest man born of woman became a “holy nobody.” May we as well.
Never give up! If you never give up on the God who never gives up on you, you will become a saint.
In order for us to be healed by the Divine Physician, we must first let Him diagnose us.
Is it more important, more beautiful, to be holy, or to look holy?
Gates don't move! Strive to enter through the narrow one.
God and His Church love in a very maternal way; in a way that is rather pathetic and utterly beautiful. God wants us home with Him.
The fundamental reason for my unhappiness is me. Looking at myself is the way to slavery and insecurity. “Are you envious because He is generous?”
Renewal always comes from within; from commitment to lived friendship with God. This is why material wealth can be spiritually dangerous for us and for the Church.
1st rule for seeking the treasure of Heaven: Don't be dumb! The battle for your family has already begun. Who/what do you worship? Who/what holds your attention?
He has come to cast holy fire upon us and upon our university! He has come to fill us—His treasure—with an abundance of His love.
