How do we truly surrender our will to God without losing our sense of self? Fr. Leo Austin explores the virtue of docility and obedience through biblical scenes, especially when Mary and Joseph lose the twelve-year-old Jesus in the temple - on how Jesus’ awareness of His mission to sacrifice Himself embodies mature faith and total trust in God’s plan. Drawing parallels to modern struggles with independence and control, Fr. Leo encourages listeners to embrace patience, humility, and openness to divine guidance so that we can find true peace, which comes not from asserting control, but from aligning our choices with God’s will.
