Elijah, Peter and walking on water

The Pearl of great price
Once again God’s love and his salvation plan an open book. We learned that our request to God, that our prayers, when aligned with God’s will bring fantastic results. Solomon’s request was perfected by our Lord. Like Solomon, we too should pray for wisdom. Wisdom, when properly exercised, shows…

Parable of sower & weeds
We learned that our Lord God is good and forgiving.

The parable of the Sower
A well trodden path can be a lot of things and for sure our hearts, our spiritual defenses can be equally well trodden. The path to our hearts can be so tightly packed and jammed up with today’s headlines, tomorrow’s worries and yesterday’s regret that we forget to try to understand. If we can...

HIdden Ones, humility & love
As a flawed humans, we understand the expression – find a job you love and you’ll never work a day in your life – indeed “love” is a secret sauce and it clears the room of fear, anxiety and disappointment – you see love makes the burden light. i.e., doing the dishes after dinner because your love...

I the Lord am your God

Corpus Christi readings
On the solemnity of the Body and Blood of Christ, recall that it is to your advantage to commit yourself to God's will in your life. God see's this commitment as an outward sign of your love to Him and He will bless you with many graces for your soul. Padre Pio takes this axiom and turns it…

Pentecost Sunday May 31, 2020 The Holy Spirit & Forgiveness
As Jesus “breathes” on his disciples, God breathes into Adam. And just as Adam’s life came from God, our spiritual life comes from Jesus. We are reminded of a passage in the Old Testament (Ezekiel 37), were we read of dry bones coming back to life upon being prophesied over. Friends, we are those...

Ascension of Jesus
We learn of our mission how we are to take God’s word to the ends of the earth. That even though he is departing from us, that we are reminded that we are to receive the Holy Spirit, and that this will unify us and fortify us to witness to others. Yes, God’s salvation plan is meant to encourage…

May 10, 2020, Stephen, Stone, Royal Priesthood and I am in the Father
We hear in the gospel that Jesus will go, prepare a place for us and return. Jesus is preparing a place for you - are you preparing a place for him? Often when we prepare a place for someone, we clean the room, take out the garbage and stock the fridge. With our own life, we need to clean our...

May 3, 2020 I am the Gate

The road to Emmaus is one of the great stories about doing a U-turn in your life, allowing Jesus to be the path of life in your life, leading you to abounding joy. We hear about two disciples, discouraged about the passion of Jesus, leaving the action behind - effectively putting Jerusalem in the...
