Father Jim Radloff
Up at 4:30 am each day for prayer, Father Jim soon discovered that others were also seeking to start their day with a short inspirational quote from the Bible. So taking advantage of Social Media, he began sharing with others the fruits of his early morning prayer amongst Sacred Scriptures. Using Lectio Divina with the daily readings from the Catholic Mass, Father Jim was now presenting a reflection that could help people throughout their day. We are happy to share these thoughts with you.

(Matthew 5:47) Jesus asked, “If you greet your brothers and sisters only, what is unusual about that?” Jesus is calling us to go the extra mile even with those who we greet. It is a call to love beyond those we already love and who already love us. Love has to get started somewhere and somehow, so let it begin with us as we make an effort to lovingly greet the stranger.
