Check here weekly for a short and simple reflection on each Sunday’s Gospel reading written by a Sister of Providence or Providence Associate. You’ll find practical ideas for living the Gospel message in your day-to-day life. God bless you as you strive to live out the Gospel in the week ahead!

'It's the first week of Lent - are you tempted yet?

'This Gospel sets me on a new path as I make my Lenten plan.'

'Perhaps you'd like to use the statements above with the name of your choosing and see where it goes.'

Every day, I make the choice – turn away or jump into the fray, help create the kin-dom of God here and now

If you’d like, choose one of these words: impromptu, resistance, astonishment, recognition, conviction, conversion. Why that word?

God can place gifts in our open, receptive hands.

You and Jesus may have a wonderful time laughing together.

Be alert today to questions people ask you, to needs you see or hear about.

In those moments the Voice declares, "This is my beloved, hear him."

Focus this week on the star, the one thing necessary: “Thy will be done.”

'Focus on the act of listening. Focus on what you are hearing.'

'We all have good things happening in and around our daily lives.'
