## Resource

Today’s homily features a personal reflection delivered on a humid Sunday morning, blending intimate reflections with scriptural analysis of Matthew's Gospel. I recount the death anniversary of my mother before transitioning into a discussion on Jesus’ visit to Caesarea Philippi, where Peter identifies Christ as divine. A central theme of the message is that faith is a gift of grace from God, not a result of human intelligence or data collection. The homily highlights how Jesus changed Simon’s name to Peter, establishing him as the foundational rock and first leader of the Church. Finally, I encourage listeners to act as “rocks” of support for their families and communities by using their unique talents to serve others.
