Homily for the Seventeenth Sunday in Ordinary TimeIn the midst of our persistent prayer we realize that what we ask for might seem best for us in the moment, but there may be a higher good that God desires to give us. This greater good is the gift of the Holy Spirit, who is given to us to dwell within us, to reveal the love of God to us, to lead us to the truth, to be our advocate, to sanctify us and to empower us as witnesses of Jesus Christ.Readings for July 24, 20221st Reading: Genesis Responsorial Psalm: Psalms 2nd Reading: Colossians Gospel: Luke
