Reflect
Most Catholics can probably easily recall the seven sacraments. I remember reading in a book once that if there were to be an eighth sacrament, it could possibly be the sacrament of the present moment. Venerable Solanus Casey once said, “Man’s greatness lies in being faithful to the present moment.”
Pray
God of the Present Moment,
Sometimes I forget to look for you when life is whirling around me.
Your presence is embedded in everything around me.
I only need to look up and pay attention.
Open my eyes to see you and your goodness all around me. Amen.
Act
The art of the present moment is something our fast-paced world sometimes struggles with. Consider picking up The Practice of the Presence of God, an ancient book by Brother Lawrence. How can you practice making the present moment in front of you sacred?
