Saint Titus Brandsma has a profound message for us today on encountering the “mystery of God’s nearness”. From his life as a young Carmelite friar to his martyrdom in Dachau, we can learn how living fully in the present moment, mindful that we are always in God’s holy presence, is closely connected to the ordinary life of ordinary people. In our daily life, with its busyness, challenges and struggles, experiencing God’s nearness might seem too far away or out of reach. The mystery of God’s nearness, this everyday mysticism that we learn from Titus, will be the focus of our conversation.
