Brothers,
If God seems far away, who moved?" That pithy comment that I heard some years ago always stuck with me. It tersely summarizes what Jesus told us in the Scriptures, "I am with you always, even to the end of the world." So if God seems distant, it is an invitation to consider where we are at. Besides calling to mind that God is ever-present, perhaps we need to deepen our prayer life, our mass attendance, the frequency with which we receive the Sacraments. The Easter Season, when we reflect on the reality of the Risen Lord and how the Church spread the Good News of the Gospel to the ends of the earth is a great time to do so. As we enter full-swing into the planting season, let us pray for rain (as needed; no hail or tornadoes, please), good weather, and the safety of all! Happy Easter Fr. Bruce |
