His Ways Are Not My Ways!

Dear Friends, This is the third week of our new series: Who Do You Think I Am?  What makes you you is another way to put it. And how you answer this question determines a lot in your life: your actions, relationships and values.  All of this is incomplete and is not the fullness of…

Jesus Alone Is Enough For Me!

Jesus takes Peter, James and John up to a mountain to pray and to witness the glory of God in today’s gospel (Matthew 17: 1-9).  The apostles are devastated by the news that Jesus has to suffer and die and the Lord shows them the glory that awaits him and them.  I was struck with…
