Sunday 18 May 2025 - Why Praise Changes Everything

Homily given by Fr Justin on Sunday 18 May 2025.

Why Praise Changes Everything

Praise isn’t just about thanking God for what He does—it’s about worshipping Him for who He is: kind, compassionate, patient, and abounding in love. Drawing on Psalm 144, the Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC 2639), and personal stories from MGL brotherhood life, Fr Justin invites us to discover how real praise: -Anchors us in God’s presence -Brings peace and clarity amid chaos -Aligns our hearts with Heaven -Transforms our view of ourselves and others This isn’t just a homily—it’s a call to live with praise at the center.
