Father Anthony reflects on John 19:26–27 — Jesus, from the Cross, entrusting His Mother to the beloved disciple and the disciple to His Mother, revealing that even in His darkest hour He is creating a new family of faith, giving us Mary as a spiritual Mother who draws us close to her Son, teaches us to stand with love at the foot of the Cross, and reminds us that we are never abandoned in suffering, but received into the heart of Christ.

Father Anthony uses the story of Abraham’s obedience to God to encourage us to have faith in God’s plan when he is calling us out of our comfort zones.

Father Anthony reflects on this passage from Matthew and reminds us to trust in Christ, even in life’s storms, and to keep our focus on Him rather than our fears.
