Homily for the 23rd Sunday in Ordinary Time, Year A, 2026 - Fr. Satish Joseph
We encounter a humble and affectionate Paul in our first reading today from I Corinthians. He writes to his foundling community that he hadn’t come to them with “persuasive words of wisdom.” (He may be referring to the so-called wisdom of the Greek philosophers, as he had recently been to Athens.) He adds that faith must not depend on human wisdom but rather on the power of the cross.
Holy Spirit of God, Breath of my breath, Life of my life, Soul of my soul; I praise you, I adore you, I worship you.
I bring before you my whole life; my heart, my soul, my mind and my body.
Come, possess me and make me holy.
