There, the sons marry Moabite women, Orpah and Ruth.Tragically, within ten years, Elimelech and both sons die, leaving Naomi,Orpah, and Ruth as widows, devoid of male protectors and providers.

With nothing left in Moab, Naomi decides to return toher homeland, the land of Judah. She urged her two daughters-in-law to stay inMoab, to return to their own families.

Episode 03 Becoming Prayer

Episode 03 Becoming Prayer

Welcome, dear listeners, to another soul-enriching episode of "2 Minutes with the Lord." I'm Fr. Dominic Veigas SVD and today, we embark on a transformative journey to explore a practical way of Christian living - "Becoming Prayer.” Let us begin by contemplating the profound impact of prayer in our lives. In St. Paul’s letter to the Philippians 4:6-7, we find these words of wisdom: "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." These verses remind us that prayer is a conduit to God's peace, a transformative force that can calm our anxieties and bring us closer to Him. How can we transform our lives into a continuous prayer, an offering to the Divine?

Episode 02 Anchored in Hope

Episode 02 Anchored in Hope

Welcome, dear listeners, to another soul-nourishing episode of "2 Minutes with the Lord." I'm your host, Fr. Dominic Veigas SVD and today, we embark on a journey to explore a topic that is both comforting and transformative - "Anchored in Hope." The Essence of Hope Let's begin by unraveling the essence of hope and how it is deeply intertwined with our faith. In the book of Romans, the verse 15:13 reminds us: "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." These words beautifully encapsulate the idea that hope is not just a human sentiment but a divine gift, a source of joy and peace that flows from our trust in God. To truly grasp the depth of hope, let's envision a ship anchored in a safe harbor during a storm. The anchor keeps the ship steady amidst the raging waves, providing security and preventing it from being carried away by the tempest. Similarly, hope serves as our spiritual anchor, keeping us steadfast in the face of life's storms.
