I have come to fall in love with teaching in Catholic schools. What are YOU in love with?...

"Nothing is more practical than finding God, that is, than falling in love in a quite absolute, final way. What you are in love with, what seizes your imagination, will affect everything. It will decide what will get you out of bed in the morning, what you will do with your evenings, how you will spend your weekends, what you read, who you know, what breaks your heart, and what amazes you with joy and gratitude. Fall in love, stay in love, and it will decide everything." - Pedro Arrupe

Marked by His hand

Do you remember the movie "Toy Story (the first one)?" Do you remember the part when Woody looks at his foot and really realizes that he belongs to Andy - that Andy has put his mark on him?


During morning prayer today, we were reminded of this, but it was in light of how it is like this with us and God. God has put his mark on us. We are His - He loves us (and gives us plenty of reminders to help us realize this).

After a long day like this one, I sure find comfort in remembering these things. I hope you do too.

Remember, God has marked each of us with a sign of his love. So, now it's our turn to be that reminder of God's love to others.
