Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New journal for Lent and ordinary times featuring St. Maximilian Kolbe, a man of Love, Sacrifice, and Holiness Are you at peace or is life out of control? Are you overwhelmed with the onslaught of daily life? Do you yearn for peace but feel it's impossible to find? A Holy Hour is the perfect answer and a Holy Hour journal is the perfect companion. In 1941 St. Maximilian Kolbe laid down his life for another during his final days in the Auschwitz death camp. He personified John 15:13 "Greater love than this no man hath, that a man should lay down his life for his friends." Ten men were chosen to die by starvation as the result of a prisoner escaping. Fr. Maximillian Kolbe offered to take the place of another prisoner who had a family. In spite of his own pain and starvation, this holy priest ministered to the rest of the chosen men during his dying days. In the end, he and three other men who were still alive were killed by injection. Pope John Paul II canonized him as a saint in 1982 and declared him to be the "saint of the twentieth century." Use this journal during your holy hours and prayer time to reflect upon the life of this man who is the patron saint of families, prisoners, journalists, political prisoners, drug addicts and the pro-life movement. Holy Hours help you grow spiritually and deepen your relationship with God. You'll find you're able to focus more on God, adore Jesus, and open up to the Holy Spirit.

Download or read book Jesus Make Me Fully Alive written by Fr. Tim Anastos and published by Ave Maria Press. This book was released on 2024-02-16 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No matter what stage of the game you’re in, today’s schedules are b-u-s-y. Classes or work, coffee meetups, pickup pickleball games, time with family—you name it. The calendar tends to keep the social commitments and professional pressures high. In somewhat quieter moments of adulting, you may be combing apps for common ground, seeking community, and somehow still feeling as though you’re just going through the motions. Associate chaplain of the St. John Paul II Newman Center at the University of Illinois–Chicago, Fr. Tim Anastos says that when we take our prayer life seriously, approaching God with confidence and making a regular Holy Hour, Jesus begins to replace anxiety, insecurity, and doubt with love, freedom, and eternity. “Living in this world can easily drain us of life and joy, making us half alive, like zombies,” Anastos writes. “Jesus, Make Me Fully Alive can help recharge our relationship with Christ. Holy Hours are not just meant for the pope or the saints or ‘holy people.’ They are meant for you.” Beginning where you are (a few minutes for intentional prayer or an entire hour spent in Adoration), Anastos’s thirty Holy Hour exercises will help you easily engage with Jesus in prayer, building your personal relationship with God. You’ll also encounter personal examples of how Adoration made a difference in Fr. Anastos’s own prayer life, suggestions about how to incorporate lectio divina in your prayer, and imaginative prayer and spiritual journaling you can tap into before the Blessed Sacrament.
