🛡️ Story: David vs. Goliath. (1 Samuel 17)

David didn't see a giant. David saw an opportunity for God to move.

Quote of the Day:

"It’s not the size of the giant you face that matters, but the size of the faith in your heart."

Quick Reflection: What giant do you need to take down today? Remember, the battle belongs to the Lord. #faithoverfear

Daily Catholic Inspiration ✨ Embracing Humility

Our journey of faith often calls us to walk a different path. Today's light shines on humility.

"For all who exalt themselves will be humbled, and all who humble themselves will be exalted." — Luke 14:11 📖

Such a powerful reminder from Jesus. Humility isn't about diminishing yourself, but understanding your true place in God's immense love and creation. It’s about letting God shine through you, rather than trying to shine on your own. It opens us up to incredible grace and strength we never knew we had.

How to live it today? Maybe listen more than you speak, offer help without being asked, or simply acknowledge God's hand in your blessings.

Let's cultivate a humble heart together. What's one small way you'll practice humility today? 👇

I started a project called Bible Story Nutshell – short, clear summaries of Bible stories

Hey everyone,

I’ve been working on a project called Bible Story Nutshell. The idea is simple: take the big, sometimes complex stories of the Bible and retell them in a way that’s short, clear, and easy to remember—like putting each story into a “nutshell.”

Why? Because sometimes we need a quick refresher, or a way to introduce others (friends, kids, new believers) to the Bible without overwhelming them. Each post includes:

A concise summary of the story

A bit of historical or spiritual context

A key takeaway for reflection

For example, my latest nutshell is about Tobit’s Early Life (Book of Tobit, Chapter 1) — a story of faith and righteousness during the Assyrian exile.

I’m sharing these on Tumblr right now, but I’d love to hear your thoughts:

Would this kind of format be useful for Bible study groups or personal devotion?

Are there particular stories you’d like to see “nutshelled”?

Thanks for reading, and I’d really appreciate any feedback or suggestions!
