On All Saints Sunday we hear Jesus say that those who are poor, hungry, weeping, and hated are blessed, and that those who are rich, full, laughing, or well respected are in a state of woe. Is this simply a reversal of fortune or is Jesus getting at something deeper. In today's homily we explore the idea of impermanence and our need to rely on the grace of God. By relying on God we participate with the saints of our faith and we may just find ourselves in their company.
