“I haven’t believed enough that he is enough.” That’s what Br. Angelo says as a guest on this episode, and how true is it for each of us? Even when we experience God’s goodness, repeatedly and in big and small ways, it can be a struggle to keep believing that God is enough. He is LORD. He is enough, and we only have to give him permission to work. It sounds simple, but it can be tough when we’ve faced rejection in other areas of our lives. How do we believe? How do we find the courage and take the risk — to learn he always shows up? Surrender to the Lordship of Jesus. It can be a struggle, but while we might have many struggles, this is the right one.

Remember Like Mary
Do you remember Jesus and what he did? The most consistent word Mary spoke to Fr. Jeremiah was “remember. ” When we don’t know what to do or how to act, Mary tells us to remember her son, Jesus’ actions. That was the case for Fr. Jeremiah, and this is an invitation that extends to all of us. There is a richness and importance that Mary plays for us not to have her be a part of our spiritual life. This episode invites us…

Up The Mountain
Going up the mountain offers an opportunity to come face-to-face with God, providing a perspective where we can see what’s important. Up there, we are invited to embrace the experience and the beauty of childlike wonder and awe. It’s a place of intimacy with and revelation of God.

The first big “yes” — when we originally orient our lives to Christ — is not the most important. It’s the later yesses, of a deeper surrender and trust and giving of our lives, that mean a lot more. At some point, it’s not enough to be doing the right things; there must still be a desire for even…
