Learning To Live With The Truth That Divides

It’s tempting to despair when we see just how fractured the world is. But the Gospel here doesn’t call us to despair. It calls us to maturity. To humility. To the hard work of compassion even when the person across from us is incomprehensible to us. It calls us not to avoid division, but to sanctify it. To step into the fire not to destroy, but to refine. To say, “Your experience of God is not mine—and that is holy.”

Well said and so needed. Thank you as always for your leadership & wisdom. 🙏

So wonderful to hear your homily again! TY🙏🏻 this reading has always challenged me~I resonate with your message about our actions…God’s will and path for each of us in unique-yet they’re all rooted in His love. So I pray we can be unitied by the common thread…love God, love one another

This is a wonderful perspective. In Al-Anon The self-will is described as a person’s personality, habits, experience, behavior, and I like to add environment. Because like you said a woman in California or a man in South Africa is going to see things differently than a person in Ukraine or Japan. You help me go even deeper in regards to Jesus‘s words that everybody’s going to see not only Jesus differently, his teachings differently, but everything differently. Thank you.🙏 🦋🌈🙏🦋🌈🙏🦋🌈🙏
