Let Your Heart Be an Altar

on November 23, 2019November 23, 2019 By Richaél Lucero | Clumsy Theosis Founder

The heart plays a distinguished role in prayer. For this reason spiritual writers refer to the heart as an *altar.* Richaél Lucero surveys the centrality of the altar in Judaism and Catholicism to refresh our approach to prayer, esteem the majesty of our hearts, and renew our zeal for the significance of the altar in the liturgical celebrations of the Mass/Divine Liturgy.

Contemplation—the gift of full union with God in prayer. Sounds exquisite but is it attainable? … It makes perfect sense to me that only those who love are even potential candidates for such a great gift as this. And NOT because their love earned it.

How do you move past the stumbling blocks? … #contemplation #prayer #love #union #Christ #Catholic #Catholicpodcast #Thanksgiving
How do you get motivated on Mondays? For a long time I'd jumpstart my week with messages like "hustle," "grind," or "get those gains." ... I realized these messages made me self-reliant instead of God-reliant. That's why now I feed myself the message of "grace." ... When Mary's Miraculous Medal was revealed to St. Catherine Laboure, the Theotokos said there are so many graces she has to give to us (hence her outstretched arms) but we don't ask. ... These are the outstretched hands of a mother eager to shower graces upon her children. If y'all don't want these graces, I'll take 'em. Haha ... #monday #mondaymotivation #Catholic #miraculousmedal #Catholicpodcast
