Homilies about inadequacy

Why Miracles Only Happen Through God's Church

The homily begins by defining true miracles as events that defy nature and are repeated throughout history, occurring only through God's chosen people in the Old Testament and exclusively within the Catholic Church after the Incarnation. The priest connects the Old Testament miracle of Elijah and the widow's flour to the Gospel's teaching on being the 'salt of the earth' and 'light of the world,' encouraging listeners to place their lives in Jesus' hands despite feelings of inadequacy, drawing on reflections from Pope John Paul II.
