"God forever comes to visit but we’re rarely at home. We’re probably out buying a spiritual book or something, or getting in an argument with somebody about God. We’re always trying to step into this rhythm." —#JamesFinley #DailyMeditations ow.ly/6ygZ30swTUR

It's great seeing Catholic school boards accessing The "First Week of School" resources developed under this year's Catholic Education Week theme "We are Called to Love" --> visit here: ocsta.on.ca/project/we-are… #onted #CatholicEd
This week's #DailyMeditations are exploring the theme of #RestorativeJustice. @RichardRohrOFM reminds us that "both Jesus and Paul observed the human tendency toward retribution and spoke strongly about the limitations of the law." Read on. ow.ly/a3zo30swNQ2
To be children of the Father and to build a fraternal world, the real challenge is to learn how to love everyone, even our enemies. Concretely, this means choosing not to have enemies, seeing in others not an obstacle to be overcome, but a brother or sister to be loved.
Lastly, the third word: do not be afraid. Jesus Himself knows each of your hearts. He loves each of your lives. He knows your joys, your sorrows, your successes and failures. And today, on this #WYD, he says to you: do not be afraid, be courageous, do not be afraid.
#ThomasMerton writes of his mystical experience of the #TrueSelf. "At the center of our being is a point of nothingness which is untouched by sin and by illusion, a point of pure truth, a point which belongs entirely to God." #DailyMeditations ow.ly/aExp30swAxm
Many countries are experiencing extreme climatic events. I reiterate my appeal to the leaders of Nations, that something more tangible be done to limit polluting emissions: it is an urgent challenge and affects everyone. Let us protect our common home!
Let us not forget our #GrandparentsAndElderly, for so often we have been lifted up, felt loved and been healed within, all thanks to their care. Let us grow together; let us strive forward together. The Lord will bless our journey! vatican.va/content/france…
Creator be with us as we are born anew Amidst the frail anxiety of our lives Come among us with your healing spirit Carried through Christ, our brother, your child. Amen. —Carol J. Gallagher, “Heaven and Hell” Read on. #DailyMeditations ow.ly/CFzV30swfY9
The Bible is most extraordinary because it repeatedly and invariably legitimizes the people on the bottom, not the people on the top. Rejected sons, barren women, sinners, lepers, and outsiders are always the ones chosen by God. #DailyMeditations ow.ly/pIKn30swfWT
"One of the few subversive texts in history is the Bible!" @RichardRohrOFM writes. "In every case, we are presented with some form of powerlessness—and from that situation God creates a new kind of power." Read on and explore. #DailyMeditations ow.ly/6QcG30swfY6
