Come away and rest awhile

Archbishop William E. LoriJuly 10, 20253 min read

Be at rest in God alone  

Archbishop William E. LoriMay 30, 20253 min read
Quiet prayer inflames our desire for God. When we desire God alone, we can wisely evaluate those competing desires that come our way, and sort out which are of God and which are not. We can also begin to see ourselves as God and others see us.

Archbishop William E. LoriMarch 4, 20253 min read
Those truly filled with Christ’s self-giving love cannot remain self-enclosed but instead are impelled to become a diffuser of his truth and love by how they live, what they say and by their love of others, especially those in need.

The divine spark

Archbishop William E. LoriFebruary 10, 20253 min read
If we neglect our “heart of hearts,” our inmost self, our soul – where flashes the spark of divine love, that point of encounter between ourselves and God, then our efforts to improve how we look and how we function will largely be in vain.
