Did You Share Your Story with Someone Today?
Sometimes you walk into a room and say, “What did I come in here to do?” We got distracted by other thoughts. Anyone who has suffered from a parent or loved one who has Alzheimer’s knows that it is not a small matter at all. It is heartbreaking when someone you love forgets your name or how to do simple tasks.
Forgetting the good things God has done for us has traumatic consequences for individuals and families. Moses tells his people to “Take care and be earnestly on your guard not to forget the things which your own eyes have seen, nor let them slip away from your memory.”
Can you imagine being around a disciple’s table sharing his story of Jesus after Jesus ascended into heaven? That is what we do at Mass every day and on the weekends. We tell His story and reflect on how it affects us.
Moses seriously warned us to share our faith with our young people. Jesus’ story is not in books or documents and commandments. It’s in all the moments we live our day.
Gospel Challenge:
What about our dining room table at home? Why not share a God story with your family? How about a moment when God blessed you? Share that story and see the effect it has on your relationships.
For your convenience, The Sacrament of Reconciliation will be available every evening during Lent, starting on March 18 from 6-7 p.m., Monday through Friday, and Monday and Tuesday of Holy Week.
No confessions will be heard after Tuesday of Holy Week, including Holy Thursday – Holy Saturday. Please take advantage of this opportunity.
Love Your Neighbor:
Please join me in praying for all baptized Catholics to be faithful to Jesus in the Holy Mass every weekend. Hail Mary, full of grace…
