Why do we need to go deeper into our spiritual life? What does that actually mean? Going deeper into our spiritual life means recognizing that we are not the ones in control anymore. It is accepting this place of poverty that we cannot only rely on ourselves, to fabricate everything and make it work. It is having that absolute trust and confidence in the presence of God. Yes, life will be hard, there will be poverty, there is real suffering, there will be death and there will be sin. But what do we do with that? Do we get discouraged and face our weakness over and over again or do we allow God to make the foundation of our hearts, our faith, our relationship, unshakeable.
In this episode, we’ll be talking about the choices we make in our lives that is geared towards formation along with some practical examples on how the presence of Jesus – the peace he gives us becomes more real than the circumstances that we have. An invitation to be able to say that “Jesus I trust you, I know you’re here and I know you’re real.” even when it’s hard. To be in a place where we can be utterly poor and can utterly rely and trust in God as we face our limitations.

Let us not be so quick to judge—everything is not as simple as it may seem. As we continue our journeys through life, we will constantly encounter our own and other people’s struggles…

Surrender the Script
There’s this simplicity that when we encounter Jesus, our lives become different. We may not understand it, and it might not look the same for each of us, but our lives become different. Just like the story of the man born blind, before he met Jesus and hoped in Him, he was living in darkness, unable to see. After his encounter, there had been healing, and he…

Realities Not Fantasies
We think we’re most free when we can be in control. “I’m free when I get up every day and have control over my life and circumstances.” That’s not Catholic freedom, according to Jacque Philippe, but it is accepting reality as it is. We struggle with freedom because it’s hard to accept our weaknesses, and it’s pretty difficult to accept…
