There comes a time in life when our faith is tested—when the rubber meets the road. But here’s the interesting part: the test isn’t always about faith itself.
Maybe you’ve lost your job. Maybe parenting feels overwhelming, or your marriage is going through a rough season. These struggles don’t always seem directly tied to faith, yet they are the moments that reveal what we truly believe.
When life gets hard, do we cling to God, or do we pull away? Do we seek His grace, or do we try to carry the burden alone?
If we truly believe what we profess, then these are the times to lean in—to double down on prayer, to go to Mass more often, to seek Confession. These are the moments when we need grace the most.
It’s one thing to say faith matters. It’s another to live it. And when we do, we discover something life-changing: grace is real. It sustains us. It strengthens us. And in the hardest moments, it carries us.
