#10 Lent 2 28 26 Perseverance in the Journey of Faith
“Don’t underestimate the Struggle.” The Lenten journey is hard. “The good news is that failures don’t have to be fatal.” The promise of the cross, the grace of forgives are constant and strengthening when we place our hope and trust in Jesus Christ. “Everyone fails one way or another.” In this Lenten journey we are asked to when we fall, to get up, take up or cross and fallow Him. Amen
#9 Lent 2 27 26 The Church’s one Foundation is Jesus Christ our Lord
Living faith is being humble enough to remember our past, be in the present and hope in a future as we rely and trust in God our Father. The foundation of Jesus Christ is knowing the truth that we are made in the image and likeness of God at the same time knowing that in our sin God searches for us and guards us as a true Father. The Good Shepherd brings us home…Jesus I trust in you.
#8 Lent 2 26 26 Being transformed into the blessing of life
The offertory at the Mass is a moment of offering in preparation for receiving. We are invited to place our prayers, or very self on the altar to be transformed and made new in the image and likeness of God. “We become what we receive.” is something we often say, but do we life this reality: Becoming Christlike! We are called to broken and shared with the world in our service to our Father and to come back renewed in the Eucharist. God bless.
#7 Lent 2 25 26 “Surely, It is not I.”
Those tragic words spoken by the disciples at the beginning of the Last Supper echo throughout history. It is hard to imagine how many times I speak those same words. Asking the simple question as we stand before God and the Cross of Jesus Christ. When we seek forgiveness and reconciliation the words “Surely, it was I.” becomes the healing words of humility and the words of mercy we desire to hear from our God. My we seek reconciliation and peace today and all the days of my life.

#5 Monday First Week of Lent 2 23 2026 Communicating with God in Prayer
We can often fall into the rote pattern of prayer where we no long share our heart with God and just the list of things to be done and people to be prayed for in our life. God invites us daily into a relationship of love where we share the deepest parts of our heart, not just words, but our very self. I invite you to pray Psalm 19 today as part of your prayer.
First Sunday in Lent 2 22 2026..Temptation strikes when we get out of our routines
Temptation Strikes when we get out of our routines..I’m a little late with the video today. Normally I do it very early in the morning. Today, I got off track. My voices argued between doing the video and “it’s already way late…just don’t do it!” How many times do we get off our routine…something throws us for a loop and we …..
God Bless
