Episode 2 Finding Solace in the Lord

Hello and welcome back to "2 Minutes with the Lord." I’m your host, Fr. Dominic Veigas SVD and today, let's embark on a journey that leads us from Doubt to Faith Today's episode is inspired by the Gospel of Matthew, Chapter 14 verses 22-33, where Peter steps out of the boat to walk on water toward Jesus. He begins with unyielding faith, but halfway, he starts to sink, his faith wavering due to the winds and waves. How often do we find ourselves in Peter's shoes? We start off something new — a job, a relationship, or a personal goal — with so much faith and zeal. But as soon as life's storms hit us, we falter. Let us strengthen our faith…..

The concept of unmerited grace is central to many spiritual traditions. In Ephesians 2:8–9, we read, "For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast." Love and forgiveness, intertwined like threads of hope, lead us to the path of healing. Close your eyes and feel the weight lifted as we hear the whisper of Psalm 103:12, "As far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us." Understanding God's love and grace is a journey of transformation. It reshapes our hearts and minds, enabling us to see ourselves and others through a lens of compassion and acceptance. Love and grace compel us to extend compassion and kindness to others. In 1 John 4:11, we're urged, "Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another." This encourages us to actively demonstrate God's love in our interactions with the world. As we conclude this episode on "Understanding God's Love and Grace," I hope these biblical insights and personal stories have shed light on the profound depth of God's love for us and the transformative power of His grace. As you go forth from this episode, may you carry with you the knowledge that you are cherished, forgiven, and embraced by a love that knows no bounds. Stay blessed and join in next week for yet another inspiration on 2 Minutes with the Lord. Thank you for joining us today.
