Stumbling into Heaven: How Encounters with God Change Everything

Stumbling into Heaven: How Encounters with God Change Everything On the occasion of his 19th anniversary of ordination, . . . . . . the visiting Montfort priest reflects joyfully on the value of the priesthood and the profound meaning of encountering God. Drawing from the Gospel of Matthew, the Homily emphasizes two parables: a man who stumbles upon a hidden treasure and a merchant searching for fine pearls . . . both of whom give up everything to possess what they found. These stories highlight how an authentic encounter with God transforms a person permanently. The Homily underscores how scriptural figures like Moses, St. Paul, St. Peter, and Isaiah were forever changed by their divine encounters with God. The Homily relates this to the Eucharist, suggesting that even if we attend Mass reluctantly or by habit, the experience can still lead to transformation. The Homily invites us to: 1. Pay attention to the small ways God reveals His kingdom in everyday life. 2. Go out with joy after encountering God, showing that joy even amid life’s problems. 3. Remove distractions and focus more deeply on Christ. The Homily’s message is one of gratitude, transformation, joy, and renewed commitment to live in God’s kingdom now . . . on Earth! How?
