Stand Firm When Darkness Seems Victorious

The apostles, like St. Peter and St. Paul, faced immense suffering and imprisonment for their faith, yet remained faithful and joyful. Their example teaches us to view our struggles as opportunities to grow in faith and charity, rather than as reasons to abandon God. By learning to handle our current challenges with grace, we prepare ourselves for greater trials and can ultimately say, “I have competed well, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.” Fr.
