Like the people in today’s Gospel passage, we sometimes become so obsessed trying to find God where God is not, that we fail to see God where He actually is. We want to know where God is hiding when tragedy befalls us; we live our lives falsely thinking that God is found only at certain times and in certain situations, and in certain pious practices.
The reality is that God is profoundly with us in the simple dimensions of life: in the kindness and love of others, in the same that we show to others, in life itself and in the gifts that sustain our lives and, yes, God is with us even as we live in the fear of this pandemic.
Let us pray that we may recognize the presence of God in every moment and circumstance and action of our lives and may our lives be a reflection of that presence.+
