Today’s Gospel reading was the story of the disciples who were walking to Emmaus. They were walking away from Jerusalem where Jesus had been crucified. Basically, they thought the story was over and they were leaving. However, they met a man along the way who gave them insight into the scriptures. They didn’t recognize him at first, but this person later revealed himself as Jesus. Then the disciples went back to report to, give hope to, and join the others. In his homily, the priest reminded us that Jesus is always with us. We may think that our situation has become tragic, but that isn’t the case. Jesus can enter into our circumstances and create new life and hope. Our part is to trust, have faith, encourage and bring hope to others. The message was a blessing.

I Found God today in a reminder that He is always with us.
