Humility isn’t self-deprecation; it’s the joy of standing rightly before God and others. St. Francis knew this: When we recognize how small we are—and yet how deeply loved—we begin to glimpse the vastness of God’s power and tenderness.
Today’s Gospel reminds us that God’s kingdom looks different from our guest list. All are invited—east and west, north and south. The real question is not who gets in, but whether we’re living as if the door is open to everyone.
Following Christ isn’t always comfortable—it’s courageous. Jeremiah’s story reminds us that prophets often get pushed into muddy pits over being praised.
Mary’s Assumption into heaven is not just about her—it’s a promise for us. Where she has gone we are invited to follow.
Faith is not a feeling—it’s a steady trust in a God we cannot always see, but who is always faithful.
Blessed Solanus Casey often said, “Thank God ahead of time.” Gratitude fueled his quiet service at the monastery door, where he listened, blessed, and believed for miracles.
The Gospel today reminds us of a deeper truth: We are not defined by our possessions, but by the One who possesses us.
