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

Let nothing you dismay

And on to #8:

God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen


Why it makes the list: In the midst of all the busy-ness and rush of the holiday season, this song reminds us to all slow down. God can handle it - we just have to remember to offer all of our worries and problems up to Him. This song brings greetings and wishes of "comfort and joy" - isn't that what we all want (and need) this holiday season?

So, remember, if you are getting caught up in the rush, take a rest...and look to God.
