July 28, 2019: 17th Sunday in Ordinary Time

God has always sought to be in close relationship with us, and He desires that we draw close to Him, persisting in growing in relationship with Him.

Abraham dares to persist in bargaining with God to spare Sodom for the sake of the innocent therein.  Jesus teaches His disciples His prayer and then instructs them that prayer is a means to petition God, Who grants us the greatest gift of the Holy Spirit Himself.

Now, as people redeemed by the Paschal Mystery, we can dare draw near to God in prayer, confident that He will grant us His very living, real Presence, so that we live abundantly.
