In 2014, Blessed is She began as a little seed in my heart—a desire to read Scripture alongside other Catholic women as well as share about the beauties and the truths of our Catholic Faith. For nearly ten years, we have read the daily readings alongside each other and shared what God is doing in our hearts through His word.
The Holy Spirit wants to ignite that desire again. He wants to invigorate women's hearts to come alive in love for Him, for His Word, and for the grace He pours out.
As we kick off 2024, let's recommit our daily prayer to opening up His word. The Catechism of the Catholic Church reminds us: "God is the author of Sacred Scripture. In Sacred Scripture, the Church constantly finds her nourishment and her strength, for she welcomes it not as a human word, 'but as what it really is, the word of God.'"
Let's get to know the Author Himself, our Creator and Savior and Friend. Let's let His Word nourish us, strengthen us, heal our wounds, convict us, change us, love us.
As we draw closer to Him in His Word, He digs a well within us, taking us deeper and deeper into a beautiful, intimate, sacred relationship with Him.
I invite you to read Sacred Scripture alongside hundreds of other women and me every single day... to open up the daily readings, whether it be on Blessed is She, the USCCB, the Magnificat, and to let His word soak into our bones.
Let's get to know our Lord in His Word, every single day.
Join us on the Blessed is She app (it's free!), comment on the day's devotions "done" or your own personal takeaway, hop on live with us every weekday at 3pm ET to share what God is speaking to you through His Word.
I can't wait to be nourished by Him alongside you, dear sister. He's in the business of making us new.
