Breakfast with the Word: Friday of the 4th Week of Lent Shorter Version
As Lent draws to a close, the Gospel shows how the people failed to recognize Jesus as the Messiah because they judged Him by outward knowledge of His background.
Their misunderstanding led them to reject Him, just as we too can fail to truly know God and reduce our faith to routine or convenience. When we do not understand God’s ways, we may lose faith, especially when life does not go as we expect.

True knowledge of God means trusting Him beyond our expectations, remaining faithful in difficulties, and taking His word seriously. God reveals Himself to us, but hardened hearts prevent us from recognizing His presence and love. Like the people who sought to arrest Jesus before His time, we must remember that God’s plans unfold in His perfect timing, not ours.
Therefore, instead of losing hope or faith when things seem unclear, we are called to trust God completely, knowing that He is always in control and working for our good.
May God bless you, dearest, protect your going in and coming out. May He continues to be with us even in the times difficulties Amen
