Fr. Mike reflects on King Saul&#39;s despair in the face of trial, and how he seeks other means of comfort when he feels like God has abandoned him. God never abandons us, especially in the midst of danger. Fr. Mike invites us to place our trust in God&#39;s promise, instead of resorting to sinful acts. Today&#39;s readings are 1 Samuel 27-28 and Psalm 34.
