It’s a cliché but these two miracles say it well: Jesus is there for us in good times and bad. Jesus celebrates with us; Jesus heals us when we are broken.

If you think you’ve got him, you don’t. Indeed, you don’t have him until he has you!

Rules are important, but they only exist to safeguard loving relationships. The Catechism is not a penal code, but our guide to a life lived in love. 

What does Jesus do with panicked hearts? He reveals that God’s desire for us exceeds our desire for God!

As creatures of time and space, we acknowledge the God who fills both by setting aside, sanctifying some of each for God.

We must ask ourselves: Is my ambition driven by the desire serve, or do I simply want a better seat at the table?
