In today’s homily, we are reminded that God is still at work even in difficult moments. Life can feel difficult and uncertain at times. Jesus calls us to remain close to Him through every struggle. Just like a plant is pruned to grow stronger, God can use hardships to deepen our faith and bring greater fruitfulness. When we stay rooted in the Lord, the Holy Spirit leads us with peace, hope, and trust.
