Homily for Tuesday of the 33rd Week in Ordinary Time
Update: 2025-11-18
Description
Saint Teresa of Calcutta often said that God does not call us to be successful, but to be faithful. Each of us has the option to respond in a meaningful way to God's love. The importance of our efforts is not measured by their scale or impact, but by the sincerity of our commitment to share that love with others.
In today's Gospel, Jesus recognizes the compassion and integrity of the despised tax collector, Zacchaeus, transforming the life of the man who climbed the sycamore tree. Christ calls us in the same way: He invites us to respond to God's love in whatever capacity we can, and to encourage others to do the same. Together, we can turn the darkness around us into the light of God's peace, love, and justice.
