Pondering Tidbits of Truth - December 11, 2025

Pondering Tidbits of Truth is my simple and inadequate way of providing nuggets of spiritual wisdom for you to chew on from time to time.

Father Richard D. Breton

“May our parishes become beacons of hope in a culture that thirsts for meaning. May they become places where people say” ‘Here I encounter Christ. Here I belong. Here I am sent to share His love.’ May we [our] priests lead the way, with the laity at our side, trusting the Holy Spirit, grounded in the sacraments, committed to truth and open to renewal.”

(From A Transcendent Brand of Hope and Renewal -  A Priest’s Reflection published in November 6, 2025 issue of The Wanderer)

 

 Dr. Gregory Popcak

 

"When you are at Mass, don't just go through the motions. Ask God to help you find Him in the Eucharist. When you hear or read Scripture, prayerfully ask God what He is saying to you through the words. When you pray, don't just say words at God. Bring your whole self to it, rededicate your life and your relationships to Him, and ask for the grace to be His disciple in all you do. And, of course, take a little time each day to learn more about what it means to love and be loved by Him...The more your faith becomes intrinsic, the more you will be able to put aside your anxiety, sit at the feet of the Lord, and let your heart be still, knowing that He is God.”

(An excerpt from Unworried)

 Catherine Doherty, Servant of God

“If, by some miracle of God’s grace, you were to find yourself transported to Bethlehem on this holy night, and Christ the Child were to ask you directly, as did to Peter, ‘Do you love me, Sally, Dick, Jo Anne, Joe?’ what would you answer Him? Could you answer like Peter, ‘Lord you know that I love you!’?

Or would you have to say, ‘Yes, I love you, Lord, thus far, but no further! I love you, Lord, but I find it so hard to grow in love.’ Perhaps other of you would answer, ‘Yes, Lord, we do love You!’

But before you answer, you should be very sure that you understand what He understands by love: a total surrender, a total consecration, a total dedication. That’s what He considers love, and that is what it truly is. That’s how He loved us.”

Eucharistic Reflection - Model For Christian Life

(From Hands At Mass)

 

"Think of how the Eucharist is given: bread broken, wine poured out: this is a model for Christian life. We, too, are called to be broken for others, poured out in service, hidden in love. The Eucharist gives us the strength to live this way, but it also sets the pattern for how we must live.”

(Father Richard D Breton from the October 16th 2025 issue of the Wanderer, entitled Learning Humility from the Eucharist)
