Lord, I know that you are here with me now. Empty me of concerns, plans and random thoughts so that I can surrender to your presence. “Ten were cleansed, were they not? Where are the other nine?” (Luke 17:17) As one of many whom you heal and save, please show me how to thank you…
Here I am again, Lord, home for the evening at 6:00 and well satisfied with all you have given me. I like being available and I am so grateful for every encounter with you and with my neighbors. I need to be more spontaneous; it is such a blessing. I must decrease; you must increase.…
Here I am, Lord. Please open me to your love and to the gifts of your Spirit. In today’s Gospel, you remind us again, Jesus, that we do not belong to this world. We will grieve when the world rejoices, but in the end we will rejoice. That doesn’t mean we are not supposed to…
Thursday, May 29, 2014 Today, Lord, you will come to me in the closest way possible in this life. I will swallow the Host, but it is you who will consume me, taking me into yourself. I cannot understand this Mystery of mysteries, this Sacrifice of sacrifices, this Sacrament of union. Please show me how…

01/06/14 Lord, I spoke out of turn today, citing rumors as facts. I am sorry. Thank you for the person who corrected me. Let me pray for everyone and mind my own business. You know what is right. Please make me attentive to your guidance. Even Paul, who was so wise, so blessed, so zealous…
Lord, since you brought me into this world, I have completed three quarters of a century, a long time, maybe, looking back, yet at the same time seeming to happen in a flash, not even a nanosecond of eternity, which is immeasurable by any scale. I have outlived my “three score and ten” years. Thank…

It is shockingly open-handed with people like you to convey without restraint all many individuals might have advertised as an ebook…
Thursday, October 10, 2013 I cry, not tears of sadness, But of awe Because I am so small Yet cradled in enormity By One whose hand Encompasses me. This came to me as I was reciting the Angelus today, when I came to the clause, “And the Word was made flesh…” Here I am, Lord.…
