Summary
Wednesday Mass. 6.17.26. I reflect on one of the hardest questions God ever asked me: "Do you love me, or do you love the gifts I can give you?" In this homily, I talk about how prayer, fasting, and almsgiving can quietly become performances — ways we seek praise from others rather than love God for His own sake. I also reflect on Elijah and Elisha, and what it means that God shares His portion with us today through the Holy Spirit, the Eucharist, and the Church. We are called to witness — not to look good, but to lead others back to the Lord.
