Fill Your Life With Wonder and Delight
Childhood wonder often fades as life’s hardships take hold, but joy and delight remain central to God’s plan for us. Every baby’s laugh, painted sunset and shared hug reflect his love. Slowing down to notice these gifts helps us step into the fullness of life he designed — one marked by childlike faith, meaningful connection and the beauty of the everyday. Joy isn’t lost; it’s waiting to be embraced.
There’s Something About Mary: ‘No Person Knew Christ With Greater Intimacy’
When kids are hurt or lost, their first instinct is often to call out for their moms. There’s a deep, natural connection there — a bond that comforts and guides. In the same way, Mary, the mother of Jesus, stands as a figure of profound intimacy with Christ. No one knew him more closely, and her role offers timeless wisdom for reconnecting with faith.
The Arts of Slowing and Paying Attention
The rhythm of December offers a gentle reminder: some of life’s deepest treasures are only found when we slow down. Advent invites moments of stillness, a chance to sit with longing and hope. Like the stark beauty of winter trees or the quiet of early morning light, waiting can reveal the unseen — reshaping hearts and preparing us for the promise of new life.
