Come Away By Yourselves
"Come away by yourselves to a secluded place and rest a while." These words of Jesus Christ are an invitation to personal and intimate prayer. The meditations offered in this podcast are intended to help the listener enter into his own prayerful relationship with God. By reflecting on scenes from the Gospel, on other passages from Scripture, and on the insights of saints and spiritual writers, we can strengthen our faith in Jesus and our love for God. In the Gospel of John, Jesus says, "I have called you my friends." By regular meditation and dialogue with Our Lord in prayer, our life can be transformed into an ever deepening and loving friendship with God.

Mary is every Christian's model. In the first place, her example teaches us about love. Mary's love is expressed in a radical love for God's will. This love is made possible by her remarkable humility and emboldened by her great trust. Imitating her means growing in these virtues, which free us from ourselves and open us to a greater love of God.
