Homily for the Twenty-sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time
The parable of the two sons. One says he won't go work in the vineyard, but then does. One says he will, but then doesn't. Be the third son, who says he'll go, and then actually goes to do the will of the father.
Dangerous prayer: "God, I give you permission to speak to me and reveal to me what I need to change in my life to know and love you more. God, I give you permission to speak words to me that I don't want to hear right now. And give me the grace to make those changes."
