Feast of St. Josemaria: Do Not Be Afraid - 26 June 2026
from Making Friends With The Lord Jesus · host Fr. Edwin
This is a homily delivered on June 26, 2026, celebrating the feast day of St. Josemaria Escriva, the founder of Opus Dei. I reflect on the Gospel of Luke, specifically the narrative in which Jesus calls Simon Peter after a miraculous catch of fish. It emphasizes that God is present in ordinary life, watching over individuals during their daily work and even in their struggles. The message encourages listeners to overcome fear and recognize their divine purpose, suggesting that everyone ultimately seeks God despite earthly distractions. By following the example of the apostles, the faithful are urged to embrace their Christian freedom and dedicate their lives to serving others and society. The conclusion is that, despite human flaws, divine love provides the strength to pursue a meaningful and virtuous life.
