Abraham and the stars in the sky!

Hello St. Mary Magdalene, 

This week we have a powerful reading from Genesis 15 as our 1st reading for Mass. In this reading we see Abraham invited to gaze up into the sky and count the stars in the middle of the afternoon! He can't see the stars, and similarly, sometimes we can't always see God or His plan for us, but we know they are there. What a great reminder for us of trust in the Lord and that just because we don't see it, doesn't mean that He isn't leading us! May this Lenten journey help to further cultivate our faith that we may model a faith like that of Abraham and follow the Lord in all things. 

God bless, 

Fr. Chris
