Fr. Altier's Daily Homilies

Marriage is a prefiguration of heaven, where souls are united with God and each other in perfect love. This profound union, beyond earthly marriage, is the essence of heaven, where everyone loves and is loved perfectly. To prepare for this eternal love, we must cultivate our love for God and others, starting with our spouses, as love for God enables love for all. Fr.

St. Peter’s reading highlights the dichotomy between our divine nature, shared through baptism, and the corruption of the world driven by evil desires. While God calls us to holiness and union with Him, the devil tempts us with selfish desires, leading us away from God’s will. We must choose to silence the noise of the world and listen to God’s gentle voice within, striving for holiness and rejecting the allure of sin. Fr.

The feast of the Most Holy Trinity celebrates the belief in one God in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This belief, unique to Christianity, emphasizes God’s relational nature, as seen in the Trinity’s interconnected relationships. As beings made in God’s image, humans are also relational, created for a loving relationship with God, who desires to dwell within us and offer us abundant life. God desires a relationship with each person, offering His divine life and the fullness of the Holy Trinity. This relationship, based on love and not fear, requires active participation through prayer and a genuine desire to connect with God. By prioritizing this relationship, individuals can experience the love of God and extend it to others. Fr.

The gospel reading tells the story of a paralytic lowered through the roof to Jesus, who forgives his sins and heals him. This highlights the importance of faith in both friends and the Lord for healing, both physical and spiritual. It also suggests that sin can have physical consequences, and forgiveness and letting go can lead to healing. Fr.

The gospel reading emphasizes Jesus’ message of serving others, contrasting with the apostles’ self-centeredness. True fulfillment and peace come from focusing on God and loving others, not on self-gratification. The devil’s promises of pleasure and excitement lead to emptiness, while God’s path, though seemingly difficult, offers true joy and purpose. Fr.

The Gospel reading emphasizes the importance of believing in Jesus Christ for salvation. While it is crucial to listen to others, the Church must also teach the truth and help people overcome their sins. True compassion involves guiding others towards Jesus, not condoning their wrongdoing. Fr.
