Living in the moment takes a lot of faith. Mine is still growing (thanks in part to a Catholic Moment). I pray that my faith continues to grow until I am able to fully surrender myself to God. I pray for the same for my family. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

God knows what’s in our hearts. He knows what we need. Please pray for me and my family as I celebrate Christmas with my sister and her family here in Vancouver. It’s raining, unlike Calgary where we experience snow. Rain or snow I am blessed to be surrounded by the warmth and love of my family. I wish you and your family the same. God bless.

As always the CM brings new light and understanding to the Gospels through the lens of deeply faithful people. Thank all of you for your time and talent in helping us understand the depth of our faith. Merry Christmas and may God Bless all of you.

I was just up last night thinking about the future and had to keep reminding myself to trust God and allow The Holy Spirit to lead. Thank you for your timely reflection.
Merry Christmas!

My favourite bible quote is “Be still and know that I am God”, a good one to bring to mind when anxious or worrying about something……thank you, Laura, for those thoughts.
