Every Day Faith

Then Abraham said, “If they will not listen to Moses and prophets, neither will they persuaded if someone would rise from the dead.” Luke 16:31

As a reporter
 I once interviewed a priest who experienced a dramatic conversion
 Before that he had regularly gotten a serious trouble
 He wanted nothing to do with the Catholic faith that his mother continually urged him to practice

As compelling and joy-filled as change of heart was
He said that as the years went by the impact of the experienced lessened
While he would never forget it
He stayed strong in the faith by working on it every single day

We don’t need to look for spectacular miracles
Although God does provide them on occasion
 We simply need to listen to Moses
 the prophets, Jesus and the apostles

Our Blessed Mother
The saints
 the holy people
 and then put our faith into action

 especially by helping those most in need
How can you help the Lazaruses in your life
