Have you noticed how green the grass is lately? In March, we received over 4 and a quarter inches of rain! But recently, we were placed under a wildfire alert. How does that happen? It just doesn't seem that dry at all!

 

The truth is that no matter how safe things look, we are never far from danger. Spiritually, that can be the case as well. Just when we think we're "all good," we get fooled and fall into sin. When we walk with Christ on His path, we trust Him that He will satisfy our every desire. But when we get overconfident in our own abilities to fight off evil ourselves, we fall. It is only in walking with Jesus, and continually entering into the Sacraments and prayer with Him, that we can stay "on edge" and "alert," and avoid temptation.

 

May God bless you as we walk with Our Savior this May!
