Father Anthony uses the Book of Tobit to demonstrate the importance of praising God for His gifts and remaining faithful even through difficult challenges
Father Chris Alar, MIC, explains: The suffering that we think God is imposing on us is really us doing it to ourselves. Often it isn’t until we are finally brought to our knees that we finally discover our need for God.
Father Anthony recommends that we pray this prayer in nature, praising God for the glory of creation.
Father Anthony reminds us that just as the word “psalm” means “song,” these verses are meant to lift our spirits and give us hope during dark times.
