Monday, August 16, 2010 Are you wearing a mask? With the new school year starting, it is tempting to "re-create" yourself with the new year. This is a great idea if you plan to be the "best you you can be." We are always called to be authentic in our true identity as Children of God, so look to God to help in being your best self. |

Friday, July 2, 2010 Giving and Receiving These may be simple acts, but doing them the way we are called to requires the grace of God! It is His life within us that allows us to rise above our broken humanity to truly give without remembering and receive without forgetting. |

Monday, June 28, 2010 Ephesians 6 This is one of my favorite chapters in all of Paul's letters. This chapter is packed with all sorts of goodies, but one that I frequently re-read is regarding the Armor of God. Check out this new video about just this! "Put on the armor of God so that you may be able to stand firm against the tactics of the devil." - Ephesians 6:11 |

Tuesday, May 25, 2010 Counted Time With the celebration of the birthday of the Church, Pentecost, this past Sunday, we are now officially in Ordinary Time. Far from being 'usual' or 'average,' though, this more accurately means we are in 'counted time.' So now that we've celebrated the coming of the Holy Spirit, the question is: How aware are you of the presence of the Holy Spirit? Why not use the gift of this counted time to allow God to open your senses to His Presence within you and in everything and everyone around you. This happens through prayer and summer is the perfect time to work on your prayer life! |
