We Are Never Alone

I was struck by today's Loyola 3-Minute Retreat the instant I saw the young man silhouetted in the dark hallway. I can relate to that young man today. I feel like him a good deal of the time in this house of men. As my sons grow older and are now their own people, so to speak, I feel less and less sure of my role. The mom role has pretty well ended, but what has taken its place is the child of God role.


I am more acutely aware of my journey now that I have the time to breathe and think and write. I go to God all the time with all my worries. When I feel alone in the darkness I go to Him and He lights my way. More concretely, I go to God every day at daily Mass. He centers me, hears my pleas and if I'm smart enough to see, He answers many of my questions.

Much that occurs in this life just doesn't add up to us mere mortals. We need God's heavenly guidance. He is the One who allows us to "journey confidently." I wish you well today us you journey closer to God. Let Him help you. Talk to Him. Take the time. Feel His presence in the dark hallways of your life.
