Note From The Pastor
Feeding our Imagination
Some time back I had a free evening and decided to look for some spiritual entertainment. I logged
on to FORMED.org and watched a couple programs. One program was a documentary about the life
of St. Anthony of Padua entitled, Finding St. Anthony: A Story of Loss and Light. The other program
was a short movie about the children of Fatima entitled, The 13th Day. While both were entertaining,
they were also inspirational and helped to spiritually feed my imagination.
Our imagination is traditionally considered one of the important inner senses – a faculty of the mind. Through our
imagination we are able to comprehend people, objects, situations we cannot see or experience. We use our imagination
in many ways throughout our day. We use it in work to conceptualize how to solve a problem. We imagine or rehearse
in our minds what we might say to someone, and imagine their response. Imagination is a powerful aspect of who we
are as human beings.
Like other parts of who we are, our imagination has spiritual impact. Our imaginations even lead us toward or away
from God, when we imagine either acts of love and kindness or selfish actions. Have you thought about how you use
your imagination? What feeds your imagination? Our imagination has power to affect us – especially spiritually.
The classic example of the power of imagination is the conversion story of St. Ignatius of Loyola. When bedridden
during a long recovery after being hit with a cannonball in the leg, St. Ignatius noticed when he let his imagination
ponder worldly things (being a knight, impressing some young woman), he would feel dry and empty when the
imagination ended. On the contrary, when he imagined the lives of the saints and even himself doing great things for
God, he would feel his soul uplifted. He noticed the fruits of “holy imagining” were fruits of the Holy Spirit – peace,
generosity, patience, joy, etc. This began his conversion and was the foundation for his teaching about discernment of
spirits.
Imaginations are fed by what enters the mind. We can certainly choose to imagine many things, but the “food” for
imagination comes from the images, stories, songs, and experiences we take in. Today, this is more powerful than ever
before in human history due to the pervasiveness of electronic media. Our minds are bombarded with sounds and
images that are not random but designed to invoke a response. Unless we manage these, unless we take time to take in
what is true, good and beautiful, our souls will dry up. More importantly, our imaginations will be drawn to all that is
NOT of God. If you would like to learn more about how our imagination is part of our spiritual life go to:
Catholicism.org/imagination-and-your-spiritual-life.html.
If we are serious about our spiritual life, we need to take steps to grow in our faith. Besides learning about our faith, it
is helpful to engage our imagination to help our faith. This week I encourage you to think about your imagination,
about how it can help you grow in your relationship with Christ. Imagination is a powerful thing. It can be an
important part of our spiritual lives when we feed our minds with Christ-centered images, songs and entertainment. Try
logging on to FORMED.org and taking advantage of some great resources for entertainment. Read a religious novel.
Simply gaze at the spring flowers and image God’s view of them. Take time to spiritually feed your imagination.
“Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is
lovely, whatever is gracious, if there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these
things.”
~ Philippians 4:8
