Let Those Desert Places In Our Hearts

I Pray The Breviary Every Morning. I Like To Pray With The Psalms. Then, Later, I Celebrate Mass. I Pray The Rosary. What I Really Prefer Is Adoration In The Evening, Even When I Get Distracted And Think Of Other Things, Or Even Fall Asleep Praying. In The Evening Then, Between Seven And Eight O'clock, I Stay In Front Of The Blessed Sacrament For An Hour In Adoration. But I Pray Mentally Even When I Am Waiting At The Dentist Or At Other Times Of The Day.

There Is No Worse Material Poverty, I Am Keen To Stress, Than The Poverty Which Prevents People From Earning Their Bread And Deprives Them Of The Dignity Of Work.

Beware Of Getting Too Comfortable! When We Are Comfortable, It’s Easy To Forget Other People.

Dear Young People, Listen Within: Christ Is Knocking At The Door Of Your Heart.

True Peace Is Not A Balance Of Opposing Forces, And It Is Not ‘a Lovely Façade’ Simply Covering Conflicts And Divisions. Rather, Peace Calls For Daily Commitment -- It's Homemade -- Starting From God's Gift, From The Grace Which He Has Given Us In Jesus Christ.
