“Uno solo es el Jefe y Maestro”
“Uno solo es el Jefe y Maestro”
Our Lord is so generous! He gives us many gifts and it is our responsibility to do great things with them. It is a privilege to receive these things from our God, let us live with great courage to accomplish great deeds.
On All Souls Day, we often think of the darkness that comes with death. However, we should be focusing our gaze on the light that comes with Our Lord, Jesus.
Fr. Dave Ruchinski from the University of Florida speaks to us about the things that can help us relate to our Lord, Jesus. We may think that we do not share in his life, but our Lord is so generous that he wanted to be fully like us.
Our Lady is the Patroness of so many Latin American cultures. As Columbus Day passes, we often overlook the importance of the faith being planted in the Americas as well. To this day we see the great impact our faith, and more specifically Our Lady, has had on the culture of the Americas.
P. Alejandro Pizarro, SJ, visiting us from the Province of Chile, speaks to us about our modern society. Why do we constantly fill our days with things? Do we avoid silence? We must overcome these temptations and give time to silence and allow the Lord to speak to us during those times of reflection!
What do we take with us when we come to the end of the line? Our Lord calls us to be with him despite our sins and faults. Our Lord takes back those things which he gives us, so let us focus on what brings us closer to God while we are here on earth.
You might be wearing a cross around your neck right now, but what does that mean? Is it a symbol of our Faith, or is it a sign of courage? Why does this object have such a meaning in the Catholic faith? Fr. Christian explains it to us!
When we are faced with the reality of the end of our lives, will that change the way we live? Are we happy with the way we live today? What changes might we make in our day-to-day lives to be closer to our Lord?
We cannot be okay with complacency in our lives, even when we are doing good things. When Jesus was doing good works, he knew he had to leave that town and move on to continue his mission. Ignatian indifference can become a valuable tool for us to use to fight off the temptation of complacency.
Our Lord will always recognize us, even if we do not know him. When we do see Jesus, we must allow his impression on our hearts to change our lives. We must keep our eyes and hearts open to see the moments where Christ is. If we do not see Jesus, what else are we missing?
