Habakkuk 1:2...2:4; 2 Timothy 1:6...14; Luke 17:5-10
Homily
The prophet Habakkuk lived in a time of trial, when the Jewish people were exposed to invasions and destruction. In his prayer to God, he echoes the cry of the people: ‘Why? Why all this violence and destruction?’ But his vision ends with a cry of hope: " The righteous man will live by his faith." This was our first reading.
