The May 26 reflection from Servant of God Bishop William Giaquinta:

We need witnesses who reassure people and help calm their anxieties. See how many people around us are filled with anxiety. Experience teaches us that they are helped more by our kindness than by tranquilizers. If we strive to be like St. Francis—if we are givers of peace and serenity—much anguish will be eliminated.

The May 23 reflection from Servant of God Bishop William Giaquinta:

There are no plastic action-figures in the Gospel, but real persons, persons who have a heart, who had one then and have one still today. Christ, too, has a heart, and He has it today as well. Mary had a heart, and she has it today, too. Mary Magdalene had a heart, and she has it today, too. In this way the Gospel today becomes a present reality. It is my experience today because I, too, try to have a heart and strive to have a heart not made of plastic or a heart of stone, as Ezekiel said, but a heart of flesh.

The May 22 reflection from Servant of God Bishop William Giaquinta:

Lord, may the beating of Your Heart warm me! What did You feel Lord? Let us not forget that the Lord has a heart, even today He has a heart, He has feelings. What have Your feelings been, Lord? What are Your feelings today

The May 21 reflection from Servant of God Bishop William Giaquinta:

“Jesus, may Your example be my light, may Your life be my light! Let us ask this of the Lord! May Your example be my light, may Your life be my light. Lord, what have You done? May I do it, too!  ”

The May 20 reflection from Servant of God Bishop William Giaquinta:

“Why shouldn’t we in some way, in our littleness, establish a relationship of love, a heart relationship with Jesus? So many times we are cold, many times we consider Him to be far away, to be a stranger, and so sometimes the expressions of the saints seem to us sugary, exaggerated…Holiness is not a thought; it is not a reasoning; it is not a syllogism; it is not a search. Holiness is love. ”

The May 19 reflection from Servant of God Bishop William Giaquinta:

“There are people who are in love with the Eucharist and who put the Eucharist at the center of their lives; Holy Communion is the fundamental moment of the day and a basic aspect of their spirituality. A modest question might be posed to some of them. Why, after eating so much Eucharistic Bread, they are still not holy? If the Eucharistic Jesus transforms us into Himself – Who is purity, love, goodness, and self-giving to the brothers— why after so many Communions and even immediately after receiving Communion, why do other tendencies still arise in us?”
