Ordinary Time

Pause

Look around you, feel the breeze, and experience the loving warmth of God.

Listen

Teach us to number our days so we can have a wise heart.

Come back to us, Lord! Please, quick! Have some compassion for your servants! Fill us full every morning with your faithful love so we can rejoice and celebrate our whole life long.

Psalm 90:12-14

Think

Every day is a beautiful opportunity to grow, to learn, and simply to live. The experiences that come into our lives (good and difficult), are opportunities that help us to understand that our trust must always be placed in God. We learn that God is our guide and our eternal companion even when we feel alone and without strength.

Through grace and love, God gives us strength and helps us to continue living this life to the fullest. I am not telling you that everything will be easy. Nor am I telling you that hard times will not come. Disappointment will come. Weariness will want to dominate us. But when we allow God into our being, cultivate an intimate relationship with God, and recognize what God is doing in our lives, then the road will be more bearable, the burden will be less heavy, and we will be able to move forward reaching the promises and blessings that God has set aside for us.

God is with you.

God is with you.
