"Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier."
-St. Teresa of Calcutta
Today's Reflection
In my daily encounter with others, do I keep in mind the impact I can have on them? Do I strive to be an instrument for Christ's love? Do people leave after an encounter with me striving to be "better and happier"?

-St. Clare of Assisi
Today's Reflection
It's February, the month of Valentine's Day. What a lovely quote to ponder at this beautiful time of year. When I stop and think about who I love and what I love, what comes to mind? How is God calling me to love Him more and the material things of this world less?

Wow! What a mission that God has entrusted to each of us - TO LOVE! In my own life, where is God calling me to love? And more specifically, who is God calling me to love at this very moment?

"On Him we have set our hope that He will deliver us again."
-2 Corinthians 1:10
Today's Reflection:
God will intervene. He will come to our aid. He does have a plan. And His plan is devised for our welfare. This calls us reflect prayerfully on the challenges we are facing, the difficulties that are presenting themselves, the trials that are bearing down on us, and to ask this question: Where is God in this situation, and what is He saying to me? I know that He is involved -- Scripture has told me that. So what are His will and His purpose in the midst of this event?
