HOMILY: Second Sunday of Lent (C)

Luke 9:28-36

Unexpected Paths to Glory

One time I presided over a golden wedding anniversary mass and renewal of wedding vows in my previous parish. The couple in their late 70’s chose to renew their vows in the parish church with a hundred of their friends and relatives in attendance. During the homily, I asked the groom how long their courtship lasted and he revealed that it took him a year before he could convince her wife to be his girlfriend. However, when he proposed two (2) months later, she did not hesitate to say “Yes”. The wife revealed that he had the reputation of being a ‘ladies’ man’ and it took many months before she saw in him the potential to be a good husband and family man. She said she did wait to be absolutely sure. That brief moment was so impactful that it convinced her that he was “The One”.
