Today we begin a new homily series but also celebrate Mother’s Day! We will introduce the power of words deriving from God’s Word. The early Church grew as the disciples devoted themselves to the Word of God and did not neglect it. To grow in life and use our words well we must not neglect our service to the Word. Words have power and God’s Words have God’s power. To access the power of God in our lives and use our words for good, we should connect with God’s Word.
