Wow! It’s like I wrote this reflection. My daily life with God is so similar to yours, right down to the wifely distractions while I’m trying to read about saints or Mass or Bible readings. And the other distractions—work, play, social upcomings—they’re all there! Maybe together we’re occupying satan’s efforts enough so that someone else gets through their prayers without so much difficulty! LOL! God bless ACM readers and writers.

Thank you for your reflection John.
I too start my morning off with reading the gospels and the AMC reflection.
I have my routine and try to make more room for God. I feel I’m doing better being conscious of God and am slowly improving but it’s what I can give each day – (some days better than others).
I pray for mercy, understanding, and growth.
God bless us all.

Love your reflection! I’m a firm believer in spending time with our Lord with prayers and devotions. I especially notice when the day gets away from me and I realize I didn’t take the time! Prayers for all who find the time…remember the prize! Eternal Happiness!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Thank you John. It all comes down to discipline and routine. Do I have the discipline e and can I create and follow a routine? Only you can decide that. What’s important to you? Excuse me I have to take this call, then change my sprockets. Peace with you my brother.

Thanks John! I’m very guilty of multitasking during my time of devotion and your reflection was a great reminder of how much I need to be more present in my relationship with God.

Such good practical advice. I start my day reading ACM reflections. John, you and the other writers spiritually nourish us and we are grateful for all the time you devote to the readings and gospels. You get my day off to a good start, a Christ-centered start which helps fuel me for the day.
