Jesus's Sacred Heart: His Divine and Human love for you!
12/06/2026 | 26 min
The Sacred Heart of Jesus is more than a symbol. Jesus truly loves us with his heart. This love is fully human: emotional, warm, tender, encouraging. This love is fully divine: all powerful, infinite, eternal. To appreciate this love we need to live in it and pray about it. Let's "enter into the Sacred Heart of Jesus," as saints and Popes alike have encouraged us. There we find new strength for our own love of God and others.

On the Feast of Corpus Christi the Church turns her heart to Jesus's real presence in the Blessed Sacrament. A marvel of love, in the Eucharist the infinite enters the finite, the Creator his creation and the invisible the visible real. Adoration, devotion, and gratitude should mark our response to this great mystery of our Faith.
Silent Love, Silent Prayer [Rebroadcast]

The Bible often encourages us to a silent, receptive stance before God's reality and goodness. This kind of prayer takes recollection or composure of heart, which in turn requires some trust in God. Our distaste for quiet prayer can be rooted in an unwillingness to cede control or a fear of the changes it might provoke in us. Jesus's advice to the busy Martha is pertinent for all times: "Mary has chosen the better part." Although our lives are rightly busy, we should also play the role of Mary--quietly listening to Jesus--and we can do this by learning how to pray in silence.

The Holy Spirit is God's gift to us. The Spirit dwells within each one of us in the state of grace. We should ask him for help and rely on his presence especially to live the virtue of charity. The fruits of the Spirit are the indications of his activity in our life.
Growing in Knowledge and Love of God
16/05/2026 | 28 min
"This is eternal life, that they know you the one true God and Jesus Christ whom you have sent." These words of Jesus reveal the importance of coming to know God more and more. We grow in this knowledge in various ways: study and spiritual reading, personal dealings with Him in our prayer life, living in HIs presence. To know Jesus fully, however, we also have to enter into his own experience of loving and trusting God in and through the trials of our life.
"Come away by yourselves to a secluded place and rest a while." These words of Jesus Christ are an invitation to personal and intimate prayer. The meditations offered in this podcast are intended to help the listener enter into his own prayerful relationship with God. By reflecting on scenes from the Gospel, on other passages from Scripture, and on the insights of saints and spiritual writers, we can strengthen our faith in Jesus and our love for God. In the Gospel of John, Jesus says, "I have called you my friends." By regular meditation and dialogue with Our Lord in prayer, our life can be transformed into an ever deepening and loving friendship with God.
