Fr. Altier's Daily Homilies

In the first reading today, the wisdom of God is contrasted with the perceived foolishness of His teachings, as seen in the rejection of the cross by some angels and the world. Fr. Altier emphasizes the importance of faith in accepting God’s plan, even when it defies human understanding, as demonstrated by Jesus’ fulfillment of the law and prophets. The choice is presented as between the apparent wisdom of the world and the true wisdom of God, which often appears foolish to human reasoning. Fr.

Forgiveness is a crucial aspect of Christianity, as it is essential for our own spiritual growth and salvation. We are called to forgive others as God forgives us, without limits, even for repeated offenses. This includes forgiving ourselves, acknowledging our sins, and moving forward to grow in virtue and find peace. Fr.

The story of Naaman the Syrian highlights the importance of faith. Naaman’s initial faith, instilled by a little girl, led him to seek healing from Elisha. However, his lack of faith in Elisha’s simple instructions almost prevented his healing. This story challenges us to examine our own faith and trust in God’s power, even when it seems simple or unlikely. Fr.

St. Paul calls us to imitate God and live as children of light, free from sin and hypocrisy. We must live in truth and charity, acknowledging our sins while striving for holiness and with compassion for others. By doing so, we avoid being a house divided and become true witnesses to Christ.

The parable of the prodigal son illustrates God’s infinite mercy and forgiveness, regardless of the magnitude of our sins. We are called to recognize our own unworthiness and extend the same mercy and forgiveness to others, as God has extended it to us. By doing so, we conform ourselves to God’s disposition and become more like Him. Fr. Altier is a Priest at Holy Trinity Parish in South St. Paul: https://holytrinitysspmn.org You can also find Fr.

The readings highlight the contrast between selfishness and charity, exemplified by Jeremiah’s selfless message of truth and the apostles’ selfish concerns. Overcoming selfishness through charity, as demonstrated by Jesus and the saints, leads to fulfillment and participation in God’s work of salvation. True fulfillment comes from dying to self and living for others, following Jesus’ example of love and service. Fr.

The Gospel reading emphasizes the importance of humility and charity, as exemplified by the widow of Zarephath. True faith requires not just objective belief but also subjective practice, manifesting in selfless love and humility. To achieve this, we must strive to internalize our faith, allowing it to transform our hearts and actions, ultimately leading us to heaven, the ultimate exaltation of love. Fr.
