ESPRESSO SHOT: Do I Trust God Enough?
by Father Brian J. Soliven on Thursday August 7, 2025
In the trials and tempests of life, we are called not to fear, but to trust ever more deeply in the Lord, who never abandons His children. Just as Christ slept peacefully in the boat amidst the storm, so too must we place our confidence in Him, knowing that His divine providence guides all things. Faith is not the absence of struggle, but the certainty that even in suffering, God is near—working all for the good of those who love Him. In surrendering to His will, we find true peace, rooted not in the calmness of the world, but in the steadfast heart of God.
