Fr Joe writes:
Moment by Moment
The choices of each moment are the building blocks that form us to be who we are. The moments of each day present
us with options – the option to respond to someone’s needs or to ignore them; the option to trust in God or to trust only
in ourselves; the option to indulge in a harmful habit or to liberate ourselves and be free. Many moments each day
bring possibilities without affecting us because often we are only half awake.
We can deepen the sense of being alive, but only if we pay some attention to what we are feeling at the present
moment, recapture what was good from the past, and broaden our vision as to what is possible in the future.
Let us pray: “Risen Lord, I thank you for the renewal gift of life. May I deepen my experience of this gift you have
given. Amen.”
May the blessing of our Risen Lord continue to be with you and all your loved ones throughout this coming
week.
Happy Easter!
