Dear Parishioners,
A poem compares our life with Jesus to two people on a tandem bicycle. It reads:
"At first, I sat in front; Jesus in the rear. I couldn't see him, but I knew he was there. I'd feel his help when the road got steep. Then, one day, Jesus and I changed seats. Suddenly everything went topsy-turvy. When I was in control, the ride was predictable — even boring. But when Jesus took over, it got wild! I could hardly hold on.
'This is madness!' I cried out. But Jesus just smiled and said, 'Pedal!' And so I learned to shut up and pedal — and trust my bike companion. Oh, there are still times when I get scared and I'm ready to quit. But Jesus turns around, touches my hand, smiles and says, 'Pedal!' " — Anonymous
We may trust Jesus too little, but we can never trust Him too much.
Sincerely in Christ,
Father Dominick
