Minute Meditation – Love is a New Beginning
Every act of love is a new beginning, a new creation. To live compassionately is to believe in a love greater than ourselves yet intimately present to us, a love visible in the trees, the streams, the clouds, the poor, nonbelievers, and all who share the life that is our life—a love binding us together without constraints. We must believe that each person is capable of being transformed by love, that each tree, flower, animal, living creature, the stones, the sand, the sky—everything is capable of being transformed by love. And that when all is united by a luminous thread of love, Christ will be visible in the universe.

I Heard God Laugh – The Fourth Shift
“Offer it up!” You may have heard this phrase from a parent or grandparent before. Sometimes it might feel like an excuse to ignore the pain that a difficult challenge in your life is causing.
