02/13/22 Nothing to Fear: The Future

Homily from the Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time.

We are called to do today what prepares us for the challenge of tomorrow.

We have become more comfortable with the "completed" past than the unknown future. Rather than desiring to launch into the challenge of the future, many of us have become paralyzed by fear of the future. When we are rooted in the Word of God each day, we become more rooted in God Himself each day. When we are rooted in the Lord, there is no room for fear of the future.
