Come Away By Yourselves
"Come away by yourselves to a secluded place and rest a while." These words of Jesus Christ are an invitation to personal and intimate prayer. The meditations offered in this podcast are intended to help the listener enter into his own prayerful relationship with God. By reflecting on scenes from the Gospel, on other passages from Scripture, and on the insights of saints and spiritual writers, we can strengthen our faith in Jesus and our love for God. In the Gospel of John, Jesus says, "I have called you my friends." By regular meditation and dialogue with Our Lord in prayer, our life can be transformed into an ever deepening and loving friendship with God.

Fr. John Grieco
Prophetic figures are usually violently resisted. This happened to Christ on the Cross. Sometimes they are simply overlooked or ignored. This happened to Christ in Nazareth, with those who knew him well. Unless we are careful, our own familiarity with Christ could weaken his impact in our life. We should pray about ways to have new and powerful encounters with Jesus.
