It’s not easy to wait for results to emerge from
our efforts in this life. And it’s even harder,
sometimes, to wait for God to come through on a
promise made in Scripture, to answer a prayer
request we’ve been making for months or years,
or to complete his work of transforming us into
people worthy of being called Christian disciples.
Sometimes we forget that trust and patience are
essential to the outcome, and that the process,
itself, is somehow part of the outcome. With that
in mind, I share with you a brief and beautiful bit
of Jesuit spiritual guidance.
Peace and God bless, -Fr.Mike.

St. Vincent de Paul
Mass Intention
Above all, trust in the slow work of God.
We are quite naturally impatient in everything
to reach the end without delay.
Mass Intention
We should like to skip the intermediate stages.
We are impatient of being on the way to
something
unknown, something new.
And yet it is the law of all progress
that it is made by passing through
some stages of instability –
and that it may take a very long time.

Don’t try to force them on,
as though you could be today what time
(that is to say, grace and circumstances
acting on your own good will)
will make of you tomorrow.
Only God would say what this new spirit
gradually forming within you will be.

And so I think it is with you:
