EVERYDAY STEWARDSHIP -

RECOGNIZE GOD IN YOUR

ORDINARY MOMENTS

Practicing Graciousness in

the Desert

Looking back over my journey of

parenthood, I know there were days

when I traveled the extra mile for my

children. I made their toast the way

they like it, let them play in the park an

extra ten minutes, or let them go to the

movies with their friends and I finished

up the chores on my own. And then, it

happened: the attitude. The request for

the smallest thing from one of them is

met with disdain or bewilderment.

Sometimes you can be made breathless

with the ingratitude of another person

who takes so much and with so little

shame, only to scoff at the idea that

they, too, give even the smallest

amount.

But if we’re being honest with

ourselves, we will admit that we do the

exact same thing to God. Haven’t we

all been the Israelites in the desert at

one point or another? God has parted

our Red Sea in some way. He’s led us

out of some great trial, given us some

great blessings. But then we run into a

little resistance somewhere along the

way and we throw up our hands. How

could you do this to us, Lord? How

could you ask this of us? No, I can’t go

any further. No, I won’t do any more.

Persisting in the blindness to the many

ways God continues to protect us is

nothing short of a temper tantrum. It

robs our Everyday Stewardship of its

graciousness, of our ability to accept

with joy the trials of life because we are

also constantly aware of its blessings.—

Tracy Earl Welliver, MTS ©LPi

Pro-Life Tidings

Even the weakest and most

vulnerable, the sick, the old, the

unborn and the poor, are master-

pieces of God’s creation, made in

his own image, destined to live

forever, and deserving of the

utmost reverence and respect.

~Pope Francis~

From the Desk of Fr. Peter

Peace to you!

Over the past couple of weekends we have revisited the

importance of prayer in our lives and reflected upon a few of

the ways that giving and sharing what we have enriches our

lives in amazing ways. Last weekend Jesus taught the people

about God and then fed the multitude with a few loaves and a

couple of fish as a sign of God’s generous providence and care

toward the people he created and dearly loves.

This weekend we pick up the story after the multitude has

been taught and fed. Some of the people go in search of Jesus

because they want more bread and fish. Jesus notes that

though they had seen the sign, it didn’t lead them to faith in

him. Their only interest was the tangible thing. Jesus

instructs them to have faith in what he has taught them and put

those teachings to use in their lives. In response to Jesus’

instructions, they ask for another sign—more bread. Since all

they can think of is bread, Jesus uses bread as an allegory to

teach them a higher principle: “I am the bread of life;

whoever comes to me will never hunger, and who believes in

me will never thirst.” You wonder if they “got it” after that.

In the past, I’ve encountered some things that remind me of

what is taking place in the Gospel story. One event was on a

fishing trip when our boat came in to the dock and we had

people filet our tuna for us. The couple who were cutting the

fish found out that I was a priest and they asked me to do them

a favor: send all the people to go fishing on Sunday so that

they could make more money. I smiled at their faith in my

ability to provide them a means to more money, but was

saddened at their lack of understanding that we NEED God’s

word, its light and power, we need God more than money.

Another couple I spoke to was concerned about the economy

and their retirement. They decided to stop going to Mass on

Sunday and keep their little restaurant open 7 days a week. I

noted that they weren’t open in the morning when Mass takes

place but they insisted that they needed to prepare for the

day’s work. Over a period of time I continued to stop in and

see them and I noticed their fatigue and that family affairs

were becoming more burdensome and the business profit

margin was slowly declining like their own health. I

wondered if they ever “got it” .

Jesus tells us not to work for what perishes—things of the

world-- but for what endures for eternal life. Jesus also said

that no one lives on bread alone but on every word that

proceeds from the mouth of God.

God established Sunday as a day of rest, nourishment and trust

in his loving providence. On Sunday, we come to give thanks

for our blessings, ask for help with our needs and we are

inspired with faith because we know he keeps his promises to

not only provide, but also to bless us with joy and peace as

well! Got it? Blessings to you!+++ Fr. Peter
