Fr. Elvio Baldeon
First Reading: Exodus 40:16-21, 34-38 Moses entered the meeting tent and talked with God
Homily summary: Moses went into the meeting tent to talk with God, and when he came out, his face shown so brightly, that to talk to his fellow Israelites, he had to wear a veil over his head. We all have a great privilege to talk with God, through our Baptism. In Him we are God’s children. We need not be afraid of going into deep conversation with God. Moses’ face was changed – made radiant – because he conversed with the Lord.
Prayer can change our lives. If we lie in the sun, our skin is changed. Something similar changes in our lives when we live as Christians. People will ask us, what happened to us? Because of our Baptism, we can talk to God; we can speak to him in a personal way.
