Elijah is a contemplative who has the eyes to see and the ears to listen. God does not appear in the glory of the world. Rather, he appears in a silent way. Weed out of your heart all of those fears and desires that prevent you from discerning the silent presence of God.
Reading 1 – 1 Kings 19:9-13

Excited to have received this Vatican II collection from @WordOnFire. The cover design is really cool.
Excited for my new @WordOnFire text - the Vatican II Collection. Very appropriate to receive it the week of Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI’s birthday as well! Thank you @BishopBarron @FrSteveGrunow & your team! @ThinkerCatholic #CatholicChurch #Theology
@VConquisitor @ConnectCatholic Organizations like @DynamicCatholic and @WordOnFire through their respective leadership of @MatthewFKelly and @BishopBarron are on the front lines and winning this battle! Please prayerfully consider contributing generously to their mission.
