Fr. Dick’s Spiritual Reflection–9/13/2023
It’s Always Flowing
I recently returned from Ladies of Charity National Assembly in Buffalo, NY. After our Day of Prayer at Niagara University, the ladies were treated to a trip to Niagara Falls. The picture I took shows the two falls, American and Horseshoe. What struck me the most was this natural wonder reminded me of how God’s grace is showered upon us. It never stops flowing from Him to us and won’t be stopped.
When cancer strikes, His grace comes sometimes with a cure but always with the strength to accept whatever happens. When a loved one dies, the feeling of helplessness and even despair is met with God’s grace which allows an acceptance that was never expected. So much of what we experience will always find the grace flowing if we can have the patience to look and wait for it. Surely bad things happen to good people, but it is only with His grace can we endure these trying events. His Grace is always flowing!
