On The Journey This Week: Fr Chris de Rosario says that God must reign over every aspect of our lives, not just in select moments. Mother Hilda says God whispers to us every day, have a nice day. Plus, Fr Tony Percy, Fr Dave Callaghan MGL, and Fr Mike Delaney

Fr Chris de Rosario says that God must reign over every aspect of our lives, not just in select moments or on Sundays. Drawing from the Shema Israel, it reminds us to love and honour God with our whole being—heart, soul, mind, and strength—making Him the centre of all we do, every day

Mother Hilda says that the phrase "Have a nice day" has a deeper significance: a reminder of the potential for positivity and hope, even amid life's difficulties. Furthermore, I have a sneaking suspicion that every morning when you and I first wake, God whispers to us, have a nice day.

Fr Tony Percy says that in times of crisis, the best antidote is truth. To bear witness to the truth, and all who are on the side of truth listen to my voice (John 18).

Fr Dave Callaghan MGL says that love inherently requires a response, placing the recipient in a position where they must act, whether to accept or reject. This dynamic is reflected in our relationship with God, will you make a response, or will you just leave him hanging?

Fr Mike Delaney shares a story of witnessing a glorious sunrise, showing how God communicates through ordinary daily moments, which inspired children and parents to recognize and share similar experiences of how God speaks through everyday moments of beauty and wonder.

Fr Mark De Battista says that as the liturgical year ends, the Church reflects on Christ's second coming, urging perseverance and vigilance amidst apocalyptic themes meant to encourage rather than instil fear. The message is still timeless: stay vigilant, rooted in scripture, true to Church teachings, and with a deep personal relationship with Christ

Mother Hilda says that Broken Heart Syndrome, the deep pain and grief many experiences after loss, failure, or personal hardship, experiences true healing by bringing your sorrow to Jesus, sharing it with him repeatedly, and trusting in his comfort.

Fr Tony Percy says that this week the liturgical readings focus on themes of cataclysmic moments and the glory of Christ, emphasizing both the ultimate end times and the trials in daily life. At those cataclysmic moments, we have the glory of Christ coming at us and that’s very, very reassuring.

Trish McCarthy compares the way our muscles work to the way God works in our life. Our muscles pull rather than push, working in harmony with our body to create movement, similarly, God acts as our "prime mover," drawing us closer to Him with love and inviting us to respond to His guidance.

Pete Gilmore says that God notices the intricate details of our life regardless of how distant we are. He cares for the hidden, broken parts, inviting us to let Him heal and restore them.

Mother Hilda expresses frustration with people who often use "yeah" in conversation as a form of self-assurance, but then realises that God also punctuates life with affirmations, using “yeah,” and "yes" in every moment of existence
