Tonight, there was a sudden downpour. Was it truly unexpected, or did I simply fail to anticipate it?

I often hear people commenting on another priest's homily. They listen carefully and know exactly what they like or don’t like.

Not many people would want to be more aware of how others perceive them. The truth can be painful, and not everyone is equipped to handle that pain.

My tweets usually reflect my encounters of the day... or do they?

I review my day and I tweet!

It is the LORD who fills up all our experiences of emptiness, tiredness and discouragement.

It is the LORD who is the true source of power and abundance.

It is the LORD who gathers us in communion to share with us His joy and presence.

So true!

In tech-driven, secular #SouthKorea, #Catholicism quietly endures. Nearly 6M (11.4%) identify as #Catholic in 2024—steady growth, but data shows shifting faith amid aging, youth gaps, and modern pressures. zenit.org/2025/05/02/kor…

#Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it’s thinking of yourself less. #CSLewis

Didn't St. Ignatius of Loyola say: Love is shown more in deeds than in words.

We hope not to always claim credit for ourselves. That's being overly self-centered. . Instead, we point others to the Source of all good.

It’s easy to show up once and give stuff away—but it takes real heart to stay, keep showing up, and work for something that makes a lasting difference. . No dole-outs please!

Everyone's feeling #Catholic these days!
