Quotes to Ponder:
“Healing is an ongoing encounter with God’s love” (Dr. Bob Schuchts)
“Behind every unholy, disordered desire there is a longing for God.”
“If we look at today’s world, we are struck by many negative factors that can lead to pessimism. But this feeling is unjustified: we have faith in God our Father and Lord and in his mercy…God is preparing a great springtime for Christianity, and we can already see its first signs.” (Pope John Paul II, Encyclical on the Mission of the Redeemer)
Reflection Questions:
- What stirred in your heart as you listened to this podcast?
- How are you participating in this Jubilee Year of Hope? How can you open yourself to receive the grace offered this year?
- What “big” wounds have you experienced? What are the “paper cuts” you have experienced in your life? Are you open to the healing that God wants to offer you? Do you ever resist praying with your wounds?
- As you listened to the wounds Katie mentioned, what do you think might be blocking you from God’s love? (The wounds listed were: rejection, abandonment, fear, shame, powerlessness, hopelessness, and confusion)
- Practice turning to the Lord with curiosity when you are disturbed. Ask Him what He is trying to show you when you feel uncomfortable. What might He be trying to free you from?
- Do you have any interest in attending a TOB Institute Course? Pray about this and ask the Lord to guide your thinking.
- Do you feel a sense of “revival” in the world? Be sure to pray for healing in your heart and in the world.
- How can you be more present to people in your life? Are you attuned to the hearts of others?
- Pray about taking a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. See the link below for more information about the trip Patty discussed. Be sure to keep those in the Holy Land in your prayers.
