Sharing Peace and Joy

Every encounter with the Father through prayer and the Sacraments fills us with joy and peace. Why shouldn't our children's time with us be any different? The peace and joy of His Grace is always there for us to ask for and take part in. Why shouldn't it be like this for us and our children

Granted, there is a time for discipline and keeping them on the straight and narrow. But when they come home from school, is it just business as usual? Or do you greet them like the father when the Prodigal Son returns home?

Our lives are so complicated, so busy, so hectic, so stressful. It's a tough thing to create this "bubble" of the Kingdom of Heaven around our children. It's worth it though, isn't it?

Blessings
