Episode Synopsis

In this Ascension Thursday homily, part of the ongoing Easter series on the Gifts of the Holy Spirit, Fr. Allain Caparas reflects on the Gift of Wisdom—the grace to see our lives in light of God’s eternal plan. Drawing from the Scripture readings (Acts 1:1–11, Psalm 47, Ephesians 1:17–23, and Luke 24:46–53), this message explores what it means to wait with purpose, discern with patience, and follow Christ not by instinct, but by spiritual insight.When Jesus says, “stay in the city until you are clothed with power from on high,” He is not asking for passivity but for trust. The Holy Spirit’s wisdom allows us to pause, listen, and act in God’s time—not our own.If you’ve ever wondered what to do next, or struggled with waiting on God, this homily is for you.
