Holiness For The Working Day

11th Sunday of Ordinary Time, Year B 2024 Darkness yields to dawn’s embrace, as courage lights the way ahead. Through shadows deep and trials fierce, where many tremble, who are led   In the silence of the night, where doubt may spread its icy chill, A flame ignites within the soul, a beacon on a distant hill.   And though the winds of fate may howl, and storms of fear may thrash the shore, The valiant stand with steadfast will, for hope is kindled in their core.   The darkness whispers of defeat, yet in Christian hearts, a brighter song, For courage draws the dawn anew, and from despair, the brave march on.   As courage leads and hope takes flight, shadows retreat, giving way to light, And in the heart of every soul, a fire burns, undying, whole.   For in the end, the dawn will break, and courage will have won the day, The brave will shine and light the way, to see God’s face at heaven’s gate.
