Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
The LORD is God from of old,
creator of the ends of the earth.
He does not faint or grow weary,
and his knowledge is beyond scrutiny.
He gives power to the faint,
abundant strength to the weak.
Though young men faint and grow weary,
and youths stagger and fall,
They that hope in the LORD will renew their strength,
they will soar on eagles’ wings;
They will run and not grow weary,
walk and not grow faint. (Isaiah 40:28-31 NABRE)
Let us remember that it was only God who existed before time. God created time. God created this world. And God created each one of us. There is no beginning or end to God, but we are creatures who had a beginning. And when we remember and meditate on all of this, let us welcome the perspective it brings, the strength it promises, and the endurance it provides.
Today, I will place all my hope for the future in the Lord's hands alone.
Saint Juan Diego, to whom the Blessed Mother appeared in the 16th century in Mexico on Tepeyac hill, pray for us.
