Balance Humility Fortitude in God’s Mission – Apr 30 – Homily – Fr Dominic

In his homily, Fr. Dominic explains Jesus' teaching that no servant is greater than his master. We are sent by Jesus every day to share His love, Gospel, and charity with others. At the same time, we must welcome people God sends into our lives with openness and kindness, learning from them and receiving God's gifts through them. God works mysteriously in everyone, so we need humility to accept what He offers us, but also strength and courage to go out and do His will.
