Baptism calls us and empowers us to empty ourselves. Like Christ, our humility can openly declare our trust in God the Father.
To truly be God's instruments, we must be willing to empty ourselves. "Me, first" must become "we, together." "Right now" must become "your will be done." "I want" must become "what is best for all." Emptying ourselves does not mean losing our identity, our purpose, or our passion. It means seeing the bigger picture and putting others' needs on par with our own. When we act as if "we love others as ourselves," we open ourselves to God, align ourselves with His will, and become His instruments. ... See MoreSee Less

As we look back on the story of the Epiphany, let us remember who called, guided, and revealed Himself to the Magi: God. The story is God-driven from the first verse. Let us not forget God Himself calls us from the surface experience of daily living to seek something higher, something deeper, something greater. In God, we find someone to give our hearts, our minds, and our lives to. We find the goal of our quest.

We've all had a New Year's Resolution that we abandoned by the end of the month or two, that is, if it even lasted a week.
Have you ever tried instead, picking a Word, Saint, or Scripture verse for the year? It's a great way to refocus on the Lord throughout the year. Pick a saint who you will call upon to intercede for you all year. Hang a Scripture passage somewhere in your home as a reminder of the Lord's Presence daily. Choose a word that will theme your prayer or your attitude for the year. Take it to prayer today and ask the Lord what your focus should be this year. Happy New Year! ... See MoreSee Less

How long does your family celebrate Christmas?
We've got the Octave of Christmas (which we are still in), the 12 days of Christmas (ending on Epiphany), or do you keep celebrating until Candlemas (the Presentation of the Lord) on February 2?
However long you choose to celebrate the birth of our Savior, I hope you remember the reason for the season - that Jesus comes first and foremost before any secular celebration during this time of year! ... See MoreSee Less
