When Life Feels Hopeless

Homily from the Third Sunday in Ordinary Time

The question is not IF God will show up, but HOW will God show up.

There are times in our lives when it seems like there is no way forward. There are times when it seems like there is no way God can come through on His promises. There are times when it seems like God will not show up. But God always does in a way only He knows.
