Today, we celebrate that God can build His Church through very different people united by one faith. The story of Saint Peter and Saint Paul reminds us that holiness does not require perfect personalities, but faithful hearts willing to serve.

No darkness is stronger than the authority of Christ. The growing attention given to exorcism in the Church today reminds us that evil is real, but God’s power remains greater and victorious.

Fear does not have the final word when Christ remains in the boat with us. The courage of the First Martyrs of Rome and the frightened disciples in the storm reminds us that faith grows strongest during moments of danger and uncertainty.

It’s easy to be critical of St. Thomas for his lack of belief reflected in his statement above. But before you allow yourself to think poorly of him, think about how you would have responded.
Reflect, today, upon how courageous you are in asking God for forgiveness and how humbly you are willing to acknowledge your sin. Making an act of humility like this is one of the most important things you can do.
Reflect, today, if you are willing to face the “consequences,” so to speak, of confronting the kingdom of the evil one with the Kingdom of God. Are you willing to do what it takes to stand strong in a culture that is continually deteriorating?
Reflect, today, on how you react to hardship and problems in your life. Be they big or small, do you face them with the confidence, calm and hope that Jesus wants you to have? Life is too short to be filled with terror.
