What are three good things that have happened to me this week?

Remembering that we are in the presence of God

Let us remember...
vs.
Let us put put ourselves...

God is never separate from us.

Cut off from his presence?

Here and NOW we are being loved, sustained, and saved.

What does it mean to REMEMBER God's presence?

Eyes of Nature
vs.
Eyes of Christ

What is God's will for me?

What are three good things I have done this week?

Doing all for the love of God

All that Jesus did he did for LOVE.

"Father, thy will be done."

"I will continue O my God to do all my actions for the love of you."

Take Lord, and receive all my liberty, my memory, my understanding, and my entire will, all that I have and possess. Thou hast given all to me. To Thee, O lord, I return it. All is Thine, dispose of it wholly according to Thy will. Give me Thy love and thy grace, for this is sufficient for me.
Ignatius Loyola

There is really no other response to life that does God justice. What love the Father has for us in letting us be called children of God, John says (1 John 3:1). What gift does our love prompt us to give? (Amy Welborn)

In Union with Jesus, the work of our hands become fruitful.

Serving God: It's not about results.

Faithfulness in Love.

Even our failures.

Nothing we do is ever wasted or forgotten.

thoughts

• I am your instrument. Use me, Lord.
• Here am I Lord.
• Take and Receive.

What are three things I regret?

Letting Jesus Reign in our Hearts

Our inner selves are a mixture of light and shadows.

Constant struggle to become our true selves: Image and likeness of God

We can barely keep from sinning.

The struggle is real.

Jesus dwells in our hearts so that our hearts may someday resemble his own.

Lasallian Spirituality: conform ourselves to Jesus living within us.

NOT: Following rules, good behavior

Think, feel, and act as Jesus did.

NOT: Slavishly reproducing external acts.

Reshape inner being to so that we speak, feel, act, and love like Jesus.

Reign in our hearts: It is
Jesus who speaks in our words, works through our hands, and loves with our hearts.
