USCSI REFLECTIONS

Saint Damasus I – 

When the Son of God became one like us, the people who had it all figured out missed him while the common folk welcomed him, shepherds and fisherman found him. Are we missing the day of the Lord in our lives? We miss seeing a prophet because we expect a prophet to fit a certain mold. We miss seeing Jesus Christ in the ordinary events and in ordinary people if we only expect him in the miraculous.
