Br. Joshua Lukez, O.P. on Life as a Gift from God

"In my time in ministry, first as a diocesan seminarian and now as a Dominican student brother, I have had the privilege of meeting a wide variety of incredibly faithful people. Yet one interaction I had recently stands out. Not long ago I was speaking with a woman who is over 100 years old. Throughout our conversation, she kept saying over and over again, 'My life has been such a gift of God. I don't know why he has been so good to me.' This gave me pause, and it caused me to think: have I treated the life God has given me as a gift? "

In a recent commentary, Brother Joshua Lukez, O.P., reflected on how the holy season of Lent is an opportunity to "take stock of all the good things that God has given us and to realize our utter dependence on God while also realizing he is with us every step of the way."
