The Wisdom of the Childlike Heart - 15 July 2026

This reflection is on a specific passage from the Gospel of Matthew in which Jesus praises His Father. I emphasize the importance of emotional prayer, suggesting that believers should use their natural feelings and exclamations to praise God reverently rather than using holy names as mere habits. By examining the childlike humility praised by Christ, the homily argues that arrogance and selfishness can blind even the most educated people to divine truths. I encourage listeners to adopt a simple and sincere spirit better to understand God's love and the mysteries of faith. Ultimately, the reflection serves as a call to move beyond external piety and embrace a genuine, heartfelt connection with the Holy Family.
