  If you're driving or unable to pause right now, simply listen and come back to this reflection later when you can give it your full attention.

  Today's scripture comes from the Gospel of John, chapter 16, verse 33.

  In the world you have tribulation.

  But be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.

  Amen.
