God’s providential care

05-05-2019Pastor's CornerFr. Bob

As we continue to celebrate the Easter season, we are reminded that “our Savior lives!” He is with us always in good times and in bad.

Talk with Him as you would to a beloved friend, and listen to Him after you share what is on your mind and in your heart.

Here is a reflection from St. Francis de Sales that will help reassure you of God’s providential care.

Do not look forward in fear
to the changes of life;
rather look to them with full
hope that as they arise,
God, whose very own you are,
will lead you safely through
all things; and when you cannot
stand it, God will carry you
in His arms.

Do not fear what may
happen tomorrow; the same
everlasting Father who cared
for you today will take care
of you then and every day.

He will either shield you
from suffering, or will give you
unfailing strength to bear it.

Be at peace and put aside
all anxious thoughts
and imaginations.

God bless you!
Fr. Bob
