A Word of Hope by Fr. Samuel Hakeem
reflecting on the Book of Wisdom and the beauty of the created world. Inspired by a recent, rare sighting of the Aurora Borealis in Kansas, Fr. Samuel shares how such wonders move us to contemplate the Creator. Discover the profound truth that "from the greatness and beauty of created things... their original author, by analogy, is seen." This reflection encourages us to make time and space to encounter creation's beauty, allowing it to reveal God's own magnificence.
