Young Ernie and his family were invited to have Easter Sunday lunch at his grandmother’s house. Everyone was seated around the table as the food was being served.  When Ernie received his plate he started eating straight away.

Ernie, wait until we say grace,” demanded his father.

“I don’t have to,” the five year old replied.

“Of course you do, Ernest,” his mother insisted rather forcefully. “We always say a prayer before eating at our house.” Continue reading “be careful what you pray for.”

which Way?

One gospel.

Two choices.

which Way have I chosen this lenten season?” Lord.

“Lectio Divina”, a Latin term, means “divine reading” and describes a way of reading the Scriptures whereby we gradually let go of our own agenda and open ourselves to what God wants to say to us. Notice what you think and feel as you read the gospel.

for YOU.

He is Risen.

He is Risen Indeed!

Catholic Imagery posted a beautiful reflection on their Instagram account today that has not left my heart since seeing it.  There stands Christ leaning tenderly in the shadows of the tomb doorway.  A very contemplative gaze across his face, it is easy to tell He is deep in thought.

I loved the reflection given by Catholic Imagery and I share it now…

for YOU.

Just imagine what our Lord was thinking of as the stone was rolled away from the tomb and He stood at the entrance after defeating death!

If you ask me of what He was thinking of at this moment, I’d have to answer…

YOU.

He was thinking of YOU and how much He loves YOU!

Today is the day we say, “Thank you Jesus, I love you too!” ..
