Suggested Reflection Questions
- In the first reading, Elijah hears God not in the heavy winds, earthquakes, or fires, but in a whisper during a moment of calm. When was a time you felt God speak to you in a small way?
- The second reading emphasizes living a more Christ-like life. What’s one thing you can do each day to help you follow Christ’s example for living more closely?
- In the Gospel, Peter doubts Jesus because he is frightened. When was a time you felt doubt or fear? How can we learn to be more courageous in our everyday lives? Who is an example of courage to you?
