How can we live and create a space for contemplation, for silence, to be able to hear the voice of God in our lives? God is always there. He’s always giving himself to us and always longing to speak to us, but living in the constant influx of noise and immediate gratification profoundly affects our contemplative experience—our ability to sit in prayer for long periods to wait and sit for God. That is why it’s so important to retrain our hearts and our minds to receive Him. This episode talks about strengthening the will and creating a lifestyle that supports and enhances the will to grow in discipline, freedom, and our ability to make a free and total Yes to the Lord and his invitation.

These are times when we’re not doing great or not rich or attractive—these are usually the parts we reject about ourselves. But part of the mystery is that in this lowliness, God mainly manifests His love for us and reveals His heart for us, and Jesus embodies this kind of lowliness. In this…

Does it have to end in just being able to receive God’s unconditional love? Like Lazarus, the guy beat up on the side of the road.
