Have you ever been frustrated by the Martha and Mary gospel? I have! In this post I'm discussing what it means to "choose the better part" and sharing my personal experience of how doing so stifles anxiety and leads to inner peace!
Sharing a vulnerable reflection about 2 ways in which a very relatable part of the Passion hits me, as well as what Jesus is asking me to do with these realizations as we near the end of Lent and prepare for the Triduum. Wishing you all a blessed Holy Week.
A Thanksgiving reflection on God's grace and sustenance where I share how several scripture verses as well as some words of St. Francis of Assisi and Bishop Barron play out in my life.
How I relate to Mary's reflecting/pondering of heart, and how her example is a beautiful lesson to me to bring me closer to God the Father and Jesus in this new year.
When it comes to discernment, the biggest distinction for me is head vs. heart. I'm making a habit of asking God what He wants whenever I am faced with a decision and am praying for God to pull my heart in His direction.
The first time I learned that faith and feelings don't always coincide, my mind was blown. God is a still pillar of hope in the midst of any emotions we experience though, and God never changes.
