Summary

Homily from the Twenty-ninth Sunday in Ordinary Time.

The only way to be able to pray in all seasons is to pray in all seasons.

Growing through the motions involves commitment, consistency, and companions. It means being willing to go through the motions no matter the season and no matter the circumstances. It is only by doing this that we can have full range of motion in our relationship with the Lord.
