Quantum mechanics is fascinating, even on a superficial level. It seems to call into question everything we think we know about the physical world around us. Fr Columba opens up an interesting analogy between our immortal destiny and the nature of a particle.

Lots of people try to reduce the Christian faith to a set of rules. And they're not entirely wrong, there are plenty of them. But this is not the heart of the Gospel! Rules only outline the boundaries of our relationship with God — they instruct us on how to not make a mess of it all. But it would be a shame to focus so much on the boundaries that we never get to the centre, never get to the heart of our relationship with God. Let's not make that mistake.🔴  ABOUT USCalled to More is a Catholic not-for-profit media apostolate based in Ireland.

We experience God all the time, that's not the problem. The problem is that we're not always aware of it. We're not always tuned in to the reality that engaging with things of the faith is different (and feels different) to engaging with things of the world. Fr Columba quotes and explains Fr Giussani's phrase: "Catch yourself in the act of being generated and know that you are experiencing the presence of Christ."🔴  ABOUT USCalled to More is a Catholic not-for-profit media apostolate based in Ireland.

Ever get lost in long prayers, wanting (but failing) to concentrate on each point? You skim past meaty topics, each ripe for deep contemplation — only to find yourself at the end of the prayer without feeling like you ever got started. Fr Columba has the solution: breathing prayers. Prayers that can be said (in your head) on an inhale and exhale. Stick with him, he's got a point.🔴  ABOUT USCalled to More is a Catholic not-for-profit media apostolate based in Ireland.
