A great reflection John.I love your anecdotal stories and the way you thread them into the gospel reading.They help to explain some of the more complex passages of God’s word and a good dose of humour doesn’t go amiss.You always turn back to what it is that God is asking of us or what it is we can do for him to ensure we’re on the right path.

John, thank you for your time and effort writing these reflections (as well as the other writers).
I get the persistence in prayer but also realize we are persistent to sin as well.
The closing of this Gospel scare me a bit.
“But when the Son of Man comes, will he find any faith on earth?’

Thank you John. Love your reflections…and bike trips! Persistence with prayer and sticking with God’s plan…not distracted by a Mclobster or any of those other things that scream for our attention. Blessings my brother.

Thank you, John. I always enjoy your reflections. It is so important to keep praying, especially when struggling with the sin and temptations that surround us. Even when we fail, we need to pray for forgiveness and strength. Otherwise it is too easy to start accepting the secular view and stop even trying to resist the temptation to sin.

Hi John,
I’ve loved the way you mingled humor with scriptural truths in this piece. I kept on reading and never wanted the reflection to end.
Please keep up this style!
Blessings.
