In the Hands of the Divine Potter

In today's homily, Fr. Mark Baron, MIC reflected on God's attributes: He is good, merciful, powerful, truthful, and sovereign. God's sovereignty reminds us that He is the highest authority over all creation and salvation history, providing a firm foundation for our spiritual and emotional lives. Using the image of the potter and the clay, Fr. Mark encouraged us to trust God's loving plan. We are called to humbly accept how God has created us and allow Him to shape our lives according to His wisdom. When we surrender to His will, we find peace and purpose; when we resist, our lives can become chaotic. He concluded by asking us to reflect: Am I allowing God, the Divine Potter, to shape my life with His love, wisdom, and mercy?

Faith is more than belief—it’s a living trust in God that responds to His grace. As Fr. Chris reminds us, faith is both a gift from God and a free act of the human heart. It’s not just saying we believe—it’s living in a way that proves it.Faith grows when it is practiced. It deepens when we act in love, forgive others, and return to the sacraments, where grace is poured out. As Scripture teaches, “Faith without works is dead” (James 2:26). True faith breathes in obedience, prayer, and mercy.

Fr. Tyler Mentzer, MIC, invites us to rediscover the heart of the Gospel—the very purpose of Christ. When Jesus declares, “Behold, I cast out demons and perform healings today and tomorrow, and on the third day I accomplish my purpose,” He reveals the mission that defines His life and ours: to bring salvation, to dwell within us, and to unite us forever to Himself.
