REFLECTIONS – Seventeenth Sunday in Ordinary Time - Do you really believe that all things will work for the good of those who have faith? When things are going well, it seems obvious; but when there are setbacks and problems, it is easy to doubt this truth. Discipleship is not an insurance policy that protects us from the problems and failures of life. It is a way of being - a mind-set - that keeps us focused on what is truly important. When we encounter life’s downs and ups, we do not just passively accept them. Rather, we see them all as gifts that can teach us something that will deepen our love of God and neighbor. In that way, all things work for our good.
“Let your kindness comfort me according to your promise to your servants.” - Psalm 119:76
