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!

' ... find and choose somewhere to make a positive difference calming or holding back the storms others might be facing.'

Look around you this week to recognize someone making what the world might see as a small step forward ...

'What is God showing me and wanting me to attend to in my life?'

Be alert for things that just 'happen' to you - what 'stance' will you take?

This week, consider the things you ask for in prayer.

'... let's try to stop from time to time and consider why we do what we do? Is it to gain favor of others, to gain the favor of God?'

Do we often take time to ponder the love God has for us and the commitment that this love invites?

Consider what it is you can do to build up the reign of God and encourage those who are on this journey of faith

Pray for guidance and you will find where you are needed the most

What burden do you have that weighs you down?

How can you help the family or friend in their time of need and recuperation?

Let us spend some time this week reflecting on how we are forming a loving relationship with God and others in our hearts and in our daily interactions.
