Is there room in your heart?

“... there is neither room to receive God nor silence to hear His voice, even though He comes as light and little as a Communion wafer and speaks as soft as a zephyr of wind tapping on the window with a flower.”

Who has the Lord placed before you today?

Every action has eternal meaning
March 7
“I saw that it is the will of Christ’s love to be put into the hands of sinners, to trust Himself to man, that he may be their gift to one another, that they may comfort Him in each other, give Him to each other. In this sense the ordinary life itself becomes sacramental, and every action of anyone at all has an eternal meaning.”

Do you experience God’s law as a burden?
March 5
“... there is a law of God that starts from within us. It is the music of His creative love, its measure and beat and pause and stress, and it is within us because we are made in His image.”
-Caryll Houselander
Where do you feel unrest?
March 4
“Our rest in a world that is full of unrest is Christ’s trust in His Father, our peace in a world without peace is our surrender, complete as the surrender of the sleeping child to its mother, of the Christ in us to God...”
