Father Jim’s Daily Reflection

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.

NINETEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

(1 Kings 19:7) “The angel of the LORD came back a second time, touched Elijah, and said, ‘Get up and eat or the journey will be too much for you!’” The LORD doesn’t force feed us with what is needed to successfully make it through our life’s journey. The LORD provides us with opportunities, but it is up to us to wake up to see them and it is up to us to get out of bed and take advantage of them.
