As you start a new week, you may find yourself looking inward—checking your own strength, intellect, or "fuel tank" to see if you have enough to make it to Friday. You may treat the week like a mountain you have to summit through sheer grit and self-reliance.
⁣
But you don't have to fuel the week through your own limited energy.
⁣
When you stop staring at the "mountain" of your responsibilities and start looking to the Father, you receive a help that doesn't run dry. You can move through your tasks not by your own exhaustible power, but by a grace that reminds you that you aren't climbing alone. You don't have to carry the burden of being "the expert" when you are already perfectly guided.
⁣
❓ Question for the week: What "mountain" is taking up too much of your focus lately? How can you lift your eyes past it and trust in the Lord’s help this week?

Celebrating the bold and compassionate witness of St. John Chrysostom.
⁣
Never one to mince words, he believed that our devotion at the altar must be matched by our devotion to our neighbor. To him, the liturgy didn't end when the doors closed; it continued in the streets, through our generosity to those in need.
⁣
His legacy calls us to recognize that the same Jesus we receive in the Eucharist is waiting for us in the person struggling right outside our doors. Let us pray for a heart that is as open to the poor as it is to the Word of God.
