What can we offer to God? Today Father James Kubicki joins us to discuss his book, A Year of Daily Offerings, which encourages us to dedicate our lives to God one day at a time. He shares the inspiration behind the book, the significance of daily offerings, and how they can be integrated into family life.
We also talk about the role of saints, the importance of the liturgical year, and how to offer up suffering to God. Father Kubicki emphasizes the value of living in the present and making daily offerings as a way to deepen our relationship with God.
Takeaways
* The daily offering is a way to live the Eucharist.
* Daily offerings help us focus on the present moment.
* The liturgical year provides a rhythm for our spiritual lives.
* Suffering can be united with Christ's suffering for salvation.
* Living just one day at a time is essential for spiritual growth.
* Daily prayer can help alleviate anxiety about the future.

| 0:10.0 | Hello, and welcome to Girlfriends. I'm Danielle Bean. I'm a wife and a mom, and I'm on a mission to help you. |
| 0:16.5 | Know your worth as a woman so you can find peace, balance, and joy, and daily living. |
| 0:20.1 | This week, we have a special guest, Father James Kubicki, who's here to share about his new book and |
| 0:23.7 | teach us how to pray every day. Really make that a priority and make it actually happen. Can't |
| 0:29.9 | wait to get started. Let's go. |
| 0:36.0 | Hey, girlfriend. How are you? Thank you so much for being here today. I am thrilled to be welcoming you to the newest episode of the Girlfriend's Podcast. I am so grateful that you're here. If you are a first-time listener of the Girlfriend's Podcast, I want to give you a special welcome. I hope you're going to like what we share here and want to continue hanging out with us. |
| 0:55.2 | If you are a sometimes or all the time listener to the podcast, thank you too. I really appreciate |
| 1:00.2 | the fact that you show up here. It is such a gift to me. So thank you for that. Today I've got a |
| 1:06.2 | great conversation with Father James Kubicki, and we're going to be talking about the struggle |
| 1:10.2 | of making prayer a daily habit. |
| 1:13.3 | And one thing that I came away from this conversation thinking about is that we need a tool, we need help, we need support. |

| 1:40.9 | with him, but it's not going to happen if we are not making time for him. |

| 1:55.6 | you're not spending time with. So God is calling you to grow closer to him. Whatever your daily prayer life looks like right now, he's calling you to do more. |
| 2:05.5 | And I'm not meaning that in an overwhelming way. |
| 2:08.5 | I'm not meaning that he is demanding and wants to take all your time and you won't have |
| 2:14.8 | room for anything else that you want in your life if you let God in. |
