Facing Those Moments When the Human Spirit Goes Into a Paralysis

From a mother who's dealing with tragedy in her family to an inmate on death row, we all face moments when we crash and lose our way. Some of us no longer want to go to church, others simply give up. Even those with great faith face moments when the human spirit goes into a paralysis, like a cat watching a truck approaching with bright lights. It's those moments that we have to look at the promise of Jesus, who tells us that he will be with us till the end of time. -Novena Devotion by Fr. Simon Pereira, C.Ss.R. (27 April 2024)
