Daily Reflections

St. Paul’s letter to the Ephesians provides us insight—we are given Christ’s saving grace.  This is God’s gift to us.

May we, like Christ, remain firm in our mission; faithful in our duties, courageous in our witness, and wholehearted in giving ourselves to the one Lord who reigns overall.

Rather, they should be bold and courageous in their faith, in their love, and in all the good they strive to do, because no matter what life might throw at them, God is always with them, working through them and helping them; therefore, they can do far more than they ever imagine.

Are we willing to risk our human life for living the Gospel and the values the Gospel teaches us?

Have you ever heard news so wonderful, so completely stupendous, that you couldn’t hold it in? A message so breathtaking that it just had to be shared?

Today’s letter from St. Paul to the Galatians offers us a practical guide for a respectable examination of conscience.

May our faith working through love be a sign of your presence in our fractured, broken world.

...we have been privileged to witness and share in the message of the cross.

God’s lavish invitation however does require that we wear the proper clothing to his celebration -- a life clothed in God’s transformational, unconditional love.
