Fr. George Smiga

Mark positions two unnamed young men in his gospel to describe the transformation that Jesus’ resurrection brings about.

Negative habits hurt us. But even though we know that light is for our good, we cling to the darkness.

When we make major decisions in our lives that we often believe that know what we are getting into. But this is seldom the case.

The minute we forget our status as beloved daughters and sons of God, the Good News evaporates.

The devil does not usually come to us as a wild beast but as something that is holy and good.

Our sins and our failures are no barriers to God. We are not contagious to Jesus. He has the power to make us whole.

If Jesus knew that he could not do everything, why do we think we can?

Never place a period where God has placed a comma.

God does not always give us what we expect. God gives us what is good.

All of us, regardless of our circumstances, are called to celebrate this Christmas as pilgrims.

Our lives are not about our plans, but about God’s plan.
