What Are You Breathing?

When we look at New Year's, we often see it as a fresh start, a time to begin anew. As the weeks wear on, however, it’s not uncommon to go from determined to deflated. We rush headlong into a challenge that we haven’t properly prepared or equipped ourselves for mentally or physically and we quickly burn out. This applies to our spiritual life as well as our physical life. The gospel shows us that in order to grow spiritually, we must first learn to listen and seek God’s wisdom.
