Series on “Prepare Your Heart” by Fr. Agustino Torres, CFR. (Part 3)
What’s the best thing you learned from St. Joseph? Advent teaches us that God has a different way of doing things, and St. Joseph is a fantastic example and witness. Throughout his life, St. Joseph should’ve had the opportunity to grasp human comfort or control, but instead, he chose to enter into humility, into silence; he didn’t overthink, he didn’t overtalk, but rather, he trusted and was obedient to God while being completely attentive to Mary and Jesus. This Advent, just like St. Joseph, we are invited to be radically open to what God wants us to do. Advent is not about evaluating everything but being with the most important ones and anchoring ourselves to God like St. Joseph did.
This is the third part of this year’s Advent series, where we continue to look into the lives of different saints of Advent, and for this episode, we’re talking about the heart and experience of St. Joseph.

What’s the most prevalent voice that you hear in your life? Is it God’s or someone’s/something else? We long to teach people how to pray, contemplative silence, inner recollection, and interior stillness are ways to live in a relationship with God. But, there’s a silver bullet to make people live in chaos and noise, exteriorly or interiorly. Every day, through general media…

Guidance For The Prophet
Have you encountered prophets in your life? Prophets have a profound conviction and clarity about a particular component of the faith and those who practice it. Being a prophet is not about opinions; it is an experience or power that you have, given by God to be a prophetic witness in the world. It’s about communicating something about who God is through…

The Resourcefulness of God
The Lord doesn’t need a perfect moment to do what he does. He can use—and has used — all the secular events and moments in history to bring about his plan. The detours and decisions and even things that feel like inconveniences — he’ll work with it all. And it’s not that he’s just done this once or twice…
