Trusting God at Life’s Crossroads
Life often brings us to turning points . . .
. . . retirement, illness, or the close of a chapter . . . that leave us uncertain about what comes next. Scripture reminds us, through Moses’ final instructions to Israel and his encouragement to Joshua, that the journey must continue with trust in God, who always goes before us.
Jesus echoes this in the Gospel when He teaches that true greatness lies not in self-importance but in humility, dependence on God, and childlike trust. God’s mercy is deeply personal . . . seeking out each individual as in the parable of the lost sheep.
Finally, Mary’s example as the “handmaid of the Lord” shows us that true discipleship and greatness are found in humble service to others.
