As we celebrate the feast of Saint Matthias the Apostle today, we reflect on the kind of love and friendship that Jesus is inviting us.

Setbacks and long waiting are part of the realities in life. However, today we are reminded that God’s plan unfolds with patience and persistence.
Reflection Date: May 16, 2026
Reflect, today, upon anything that our Lord has spoken to you in the depths of your soul. Too often we ignore His gentle voice as it speaks, preferring instead to live only in the sensory world.
Reflect, today, upon anyone in your life whom you have written off. Perhaps they have hurt you over and over. Or perhaps they have chosen a life of grave sin. Look at that person in the light of this Gospel and know that there is always hope.
Reflect, today, upon the “mystery” of a soul who goes through this process of change and spiritual growth. If you find it difficult to find such an example to ponder, then turn to the lives of the saints.
