The Emmaus Pastorate’s Podcast

Are we diggin' holes or buildin' bridges?  The answer will tell us where we're goin'!

If we want our relationship with God to work well, he can't be just a piece of our pie.  Giving only a part of ourselves to that partnership doesn't work.  We have to give our whole selves to God's plan!  That doesn't mean that we can't like other activities or building relationships with other people...those things are well and good too.  But if we want to have a good life here and hereafter, a solid relationship with God will require God being our first priority, the foundation of everything we are and do.

Are you lost?  That's alright.  Jesus is trying to find you, no matter what led you astray!  

What dose your faith cost you?  If it doesn't cost you much, it probably isn't worth much!

Lord, it's hard to be humble and kind...at least when life is about me.  But, when life isn't about me....humility just becomes a way of life!

Usually being narrow-minded is a bad thing.  It chokes our relationships and creates discomfort between people.  But for the Christian, being narrow-minded might actually be a lifesaver!

Whoever said following Christ was easy?!  Sometimes it burns!!

"Faith is the realization of what is hoped for and evidence of things not seen."  ~St. Paul.

 

How strong is your faith?  How important is it?

Where are you looking?  To what is earthly or heavenly?  In these dog days of summer, where is your attention and priority?

Perseverance and persistence.  When dealing with people we don't always like and when asking something from God.  We don't always get the answer immediately, but with perseverance and persistence, the door will open, we shall find, and we shall receive!
