Learning to Walk in the Light - 3rd Sunday in Ordinary Time

Darkness has a way of disorienting us. It doesn't always happen dramatically, but quietly, through fatigue, distraction, and a slow drifting from what matters most. Drawing from Isaiah and the beginning of Jesus’ ministry in Galilee, this homily for the 3rd Sunday in Ordinary Time reflects on how God steps into the darkness we carry, He brings light into that darkness. Jesus calls ordinary people without giving them a plan, only an invitation to follow Him. In the Eucharist, that same Light draws close to us today, not to overwhelm us, but to guide us. We are invited to let Christ illumine one tired or dim place in our lives and to carry His light with us into the world.
