Death is seen by most of us as an enemy or a foe. But God uses it to invite all people to surrender to him and to be saved.

We are called to be humble before the Lord in both prayer and life. When we see others doing wrong we can judge acts, but not persons, but instead recognize our need for God's mercy And help others know God's mercy for them.

The scriptures encourage us today to continue to pray against all our adversaries,  these include the things that we face personally in this life, but also together as a church against the unjust structures of our world.

Why doesn't God just heal us miraculously when we're sick and ask for it? Why doesn't God just send us his grace without us needing to go to church and receive the sacraments? God chooses ordinary means to communicate his healing and grace. Maybe this is his way of helping us participate in our salvation.

Jesus shares that just a little Faith will go along way. Faith helps us serve God with joy and with less sense of duty obligation and weight. Faith hope and love are gifts from God that we should ask for and receive in the Eucharist. 

The poor are still at our doorstep today. The prophets still cry out on behalf of the poor.  Will we listen or will we be indifferent ?

Instead of condoning dishonesty, Jesus is saying that if we posses any of our Time, Talent or Treasure as our own, it becomes dishonest wealth. All things, even our money, is a gift from God to be used for the good of all, especially the poor.

So many times we look at the cross and fail to recognize the victory and triumph Christ won for us over death. Let's look more closely at this great mystery of our salvation.

Last week's Holy from Fr. Paul. Sorry about the delay. 

Jesus reveals in the scripture today that there is heaven and hell and final judgment. This is hard for many people today as we ponder how can a loving God send people to hell? God wants no one to go to hell, that's why he sent his son to save us.

The Gospel today is very challenging  and confusing! Jesus says he did not come to bring peace but division to divide families. What? Especially spoken today in the world with much division, what does Jesus mean? There is a division that comes from God and there is a division that comes from the world the challenge for us is to distinguish between the two, and the Gospel, especially the good news for the poor, can be our metric for discernment.

A few stories to help understand what is God's desire for us. In all our busyness we can miss the point of life.
