  <description>&lt;p&gt;Homily from the Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;We are called to do today what prepares us for the challenge of tomorrow.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;We have become more comfortable with the "completed" past than the unknown future. Rather than desiring to launch into the challenge of the future, many of us have become paralyzed by fear of the future. When we are rooted in the Word of God each day, we become more rooted in God Himself each day. When we are rooted in the Lord, there is no room for fear of the future.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;dl&gt;
&lt;dt&gt; Mass Readings from February 13, 2022:&lt;/dt&gt;
&lt;dt&gt; Jeremiah 17:5-8&lt;/dt&gt;
&lt;dt&gt; Psalms 1:1-4, 6&lt;/dt&gt;
&lt;dt&gt;1 Corinthians 15:12, 16-20&lt;/dt&gt; &lt;p&gt;Luke 6:17, 20-26&lt;/p&gt;

  <description>&lt;p&gt;Homily from the Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Good times don’t last…and neither do bad times.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;One of the many things that life teaches us is that life is always changing. To grow is to change. There are times that are good and there are times that are bad. All of us go through good times and bad times and neither of them are permanent. In both good times and bad, Jesus is Lord and He loves the person in a desperate situation and the person in a bright situation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;dl&gt;
&lt;dt&gt; Mass Readings from February 07, 2021:&lt;/dt&gt;
&lt;dt&gt; Job 7:1-4, 6-7&lt;/dt&gt;
&lt;dt&gt; Psalms 147:1-6&lt;/dt&gt;
&lt;dt&gt;1 Corinthians 9:16-19, 22-23&lt;/dt&gt; &lt;p&gt;Mark 1:29-39&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://bulldogcatholic.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/hindsight-20_20_-in-good-times-and-in-bad.pdf"&gt;Download the Homily Study&lt;/a&gt;
