There is an old hymn called “What a Friend We Have in Jesus.” It speaks of the privilege and comfort of the depth of intimacy Jesus shares with each of us on a personal level; through all the joys and sorrows, ups and downs of life.
There are many words and teachings of Jesus that make people uncomfortable, the times where your insides feel stretchy and squirmy.
Most Catholics can probably easily recall the seven sacraments. But if there was an eighth sacrament, it could possibly be the sacrament of the present moment.
The mercy of God is unending and yet sometimes that is hard for us to accept. Pope Francis once said, “God never tires of forgiving us; we are the ones who tire of seeking his mercy.”
Some of the hardest teachings of Jesus to follow are centered around forgiveness. Forgive 70 x 7 times. Be merciful as your heavenly Father is merciful. Turn the other cheek.
Some of the most powerful life lessons are taught through simple interactions or encounters.
When battling the hard things of life like addiction, we need spiritual companions to pray for us–spiritual brothers and sisters to fight for us from heaven’s gaze.
