In this week's exploration of the story of Balaam from Numbers 22, we're challenged to examine our deepest desires and their impact on our spiritual lives. The central question posed is deceptively simple yet profoundly impactful: 'What do you want?' Through Balaam's tragic journey, we see how even those who know God's will can be led astray by their own wants. This narrative serves as a stark warning against allowing our personal desires to overshadow God's plan for us. The 'doctrine of Balaam' – pursuing our wants to the point of compromising God's will – is a pitfall we must vigilantly guard against. As we reflect on this, we're called to examine our own hearts, listen to the warnings God places in our lives (even if they come from unexpected sources), and train ourselves to align our desires with God's. This message reminds us that true fulfillment comes not from getting what we want, but from wanting what God wants for us.

In this episode, we dive into the first pillar of the Men's Collective's five pillars of purpose: Perspective. Pierre and Travis engage in a deep discussion about what perspective means and why it's the indispensable starting point for personal growth and true fulfillment beyond traditional measures of success.Understanding perspective is crucial because it offers a lens through which men can reassess their life's trajectory and redefine success from personal fulfillment rather than societal expectations. This redefined view serves as a catalyst for deeper connections with oneself and others, fostering authentic interactions that transcend superficial achievements.Highlights The Fulfillment vs. Success Dichotomy: Pierre and Travis explore the difference between traditional success markers like financial achievements or credentials and true fulfillment. They discuss the importance of understanding life stories and experiences to pave the way for a meaningful future. Zooming Out for Deeper Insight: The discussion emphasizes the value of stepping back to take a broader look at one's goals and achievements. By doing so, men can better align their daily lives with what genuinely fulfills them, beyond material accomplishments. Connection over Competition: The episode highlights the powerful shift from competition to camaraderie among men when they let go of accolades and truly connect on the basis of humanity and shared experience. It underscores the creation of a supportive community where authenticity and genuine relationships thrive.As you reflect on this episode, consider this: How are you currently defining success in your life, and is it bringing you true fulfillment? Take a moment to zoom out and reassess. Identify one area where your perception of success might be more aligned with societal expectations than personal fulfillment, and consider what changes could help you feel more fulfilled and authentically connected to yourself and others.JOIN THE COLLECTIVE:JOIN THE MEN'S COLLECTIVE:CLICK HEREJOIN THE MAILING LIST & GET INVOLVED!CLICK HERE: MAILING LISTINSTAGRAM: MENSCOLLECTIVE.COWATCH ON YOUTUBE:WATCH HEREConnect and Support Travis:YouTube: Travis GoodmanInstagram: @travis.goodman.lmftWeb: TravisGoodmanLMFT.comConnect and Support Pierre:Instagram: Braver.ManWeb: BraverManCoaching.com

The sunset is impossible to grasp. One moment, it's glowing—golden and brilliant. The next, it's gone, slipping beyond the horizon. No matter how much you wish it would remain, darkness quickly takes over. Welcome to The Daily. We go through the bible verse-by-verse, chapter-by-chapter, every single day. Our text today is Ecclesiastes 6:12. For who knows what is good for man while he lives the few days of his vain life, which he passes like a shadow?— Ecclesiastes 6:12 That's life. Life isn't just short—it's fleeting, like a shadow moving across the ground. We chase after success, wealth, and comfort, hoping they'll bring us meaning. But no matter how much we grab, they slip through our fingers. Because shadows have no substance. They look real, but they aren't. They shift, stretch, and disappear with time. The things we think will satisfy—bigger paychecks, more recognition, the next big achievement—often leave us empty. They promise security but deliver uncertainty. They look solid but fade when the light changes. But here's the truth: where there's a shadow, there's light. And that's what we're meant to chase. Jesus said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life” (John 8:12). Instead of running after things that vanish, we're called to run toward Him—the only One who never fades. So, what are you chasing? Are you grasping at shadows or reaching for the Light? #LifeIsShort, #ChasingLight, #FaithOverFleeting ASK THIS: What shadows have you been chasing in your life? How have temporary pursuits left you feeling empty? What does John 8:12 reveal about where true fulfillment is found? How can you intentionally pursue the Light of Christ today? DO THIS: Spend five minutes today reflecting on what you're chasing—then ask God to shift your focus to what truly lasts. PRAY THIS: Lord, help me stop grasping at what fades and start pursuing what lasts. Draw me closer to Your light so I may walk in truth. Amen. PLAY THIS: Chasing Rebels.

Read Online“What profit is there for one to gain the whole world and forfeit his life?” Mark 8:36This short and direct question is worth much meditation. In Mark's Gospel, this line comes within the context of Jesus teaching about the requirements of being His disciple. And it comes after Jesus began to explicitly teach that He Himself would suffer and die as the Christ.Think about this question above, starting with the first part of the question. “What profit is there for one to gain the whole world…” Do you want to gain the whole world? For most people, such a possibility is quite enticing. To “gain the whole world” is to gain everything this world has to offer. Imagine being offered unlimited wealth in this world. What if you were to win the largest jackpot any lottery ever offered and more? What if you were able to have beautiful mansions around the world, your own private jet, every modern convenience, the most expensive of cars, and the ability to do whatever you wanted for the rest of your life? Is this enticing? Certainly it is on a superficial level. But it is also a very deceptive enticement, because all of this could not make you any happier or more fulfilled than you already are.The second part of this question is also easy to address. Would you want to forfeit your life? Certainly not. So Jesus offers two contrasting statements in one sentence. Most people would want to gain the whole world but would never want to forfeit their lives. Jesus sets up this contrast as a way of telling us very clearly that we cannot desire one without also choosing the other. In other words, if your heart's desire is for the riches of this world, then you do indeed forfeit your very life to the extent that you give into that desire. On the contrary, if you choose the salvation of your soul, then you must forfeit the desire for the riches and enticements of this world. You cannot desire and choose both.With that said, there might be a very rare soul who has many things in this world but has no attachment to them at all. They live completely detached from the things of this world, finding true satisfaction only in God and His holy will, becoming indifferent to any material things they have. Of course, this is a very difficult interior disposition for one to arrive at when they have accumulated much wealth.Alternately, there are those in this world who have very little. They are truly poor in the literal sense. However, they spend their days dreaming about riches and covet all that they do not have. Sadly, this poor soul is, in fact, just as materially attached as the one who has made riches the goal and focus of life. And that interior attachment will do great spiritual damage. Reflect, today, upon this question of Jesus: “What profit is there for one to gain the whole world and forfeit his life?” Use that question as a source of prayer, meditation and self-examination. Try to be honest about your desires. If you find that you spend much time daydreaming about riches, then pay particular attention to this question. Life in its fullness can never be obtained through those desires or the fulfillment of those desires. God and God alone fulfills. Seek God above all else and you will find that nothing this world has to offer comes close to the riches of the Kingdom of God. Lord, You and You alone are the source of fulfillment in life. Please purify my desires so that I ultimately desire only You and Your holy will. Free me from every deception and false enticement in life so that I will find satisfaction only in You. Jesus, I trust in You.Source of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.
