TIME FOR SPIRITUAL HEALTH ASSESSMENT

Spiritual formation is an inside-out process. It begins in the head, transforming our thoughts in how we view ourselves and the world; proceeds to the heart, transforming our character as manifested in “Fruits of the Spirit”. Given that Jesus regarded “fruits” as an important indicator of spiritual growth, we might consider how they might apply in a year-end spiritual assessment. “Fruits of the Spirit” are about character marked by a spirit of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. By periodically rating ourselves on each of these, say, from one to ten, we can gain a sense of how we are growing in “fruits of the Spirit” and identify areas for needed spiritual improvement. To test those fruits, we might ask ourselves and those close to us how they have developed over the past year.

• Do we find it easier to experience joy and peace when things aren’t going our way?

• Do we have more patience with frustrating people and circumstances?

• Are we better able to say no to harmful thoughts, desires, and temptations?

• Do we regularly seek God’s will through prayer, study, and contemplative thought, and do we follow it?

• Do we know our spiritual gifts and are we using them?

• Does our faith inform the way we live at home, work, school, the ball field, the mall, etc.?

• Do we promote the sanctity of life, religious freedom, and sexual purity in natural marriage through our profession and practice?

• Do we take seriously our duty to the poor, imprisoned, orphaned, and widowed?

WORD ON FIRE BIBLE

Bishop Robert Barron’s Word on Fire is publishing a wonderful new

Bible in several volumes. One of our parishioners was so impressed

with the first volume which features the Four Gospels, that he is

donating copies to raffle off. We had a drawing this past week and

chose the first four blessed winners. Please pick them up at the

welcome counter after Mass. And the winners are:

We are looking for some intercessory prayer warriors who will set aside a little time during the week to pray for parishioners (or close members of their families) who are seriously if not critically ill and need help from God to get over this particularly rough patch in their lives.
