Jesus' sleeping presence on the storm- tossed sea reveals the sleeping faith of his disciples. They feared for their lives even though their Lord and Master was with them in the boat. They were asleep to Christ while he was present to them in their hour of need. The Lord Jesus is ever present to us. And in our time of testing he asks the same question: Why are you afraid? Have you no faith? Do you recognize the Lord's presence with you, especially when you meet the storms of ad- versity, sorrow, and temptation? Whenever we encounter trouble, the Lord is there with the same reassuring message: "It is I, do not be afraid." The Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC) tells us that Faith is an entire- ly free gift that God gives to us. Believing is only possible by grace and the help of the Holy Spirit, who moves the heart and who opens the eyes of the mind to understand and accept the truth which God has revealed to us. Faith enables us to relate to God rightly and confidently, with trust and reliance, by believing and adhering to his word, because he is utterly reliable and trustworthy. If we want to live, grow, and persevere in faith, then it must be nourished with the word of God. Fear does not need to cripple us from taking right action or rob us of our trust and reliance on God. Courage working with faith enables us to em- brace God's word of truth and love with confidence and to act on it with firm hope in God's promises. The love of God strengthens us in our faith and trust in him and enables us to act with justice and kindness towards our neighbour even in the face of opposition or harm. Do you allow the love of Christ to rule in your heart and mind, and to move your will to choose what is good in accordance with his will? "Lord Jesus, increase my faith in your redeeming love and power that I may always recognize your abiding presence with me. And give me courage to do your will in all circumstances."

‘Why are you so frightened… how is it that you have no faith?’ How can we fight fear with faith? Jesus' sleeping presence on the storm-tossed sea reveals the sleeping faith of his disciples. They feared for their lives even though their Lord and Master was with them in the boat. They were asleep to Christ while he was present to them in their hour of need. The Lord Jesus is ever present to us. And in our time of testing he asks the same question: Why are you afraid? Have you no faith? Do you recognize the Lord's presence with you, especially when you meet the storms of ad-versity, sorrow, and temptation? Whenever we encounter trouble, the Lord is there with the same reassuring message: "It is I, do not be afraid." The Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC) tells us that Faith is an entire-ly free gift that God gives to us. Believing is only possible by grace and the help of the Holy Spirit, who moves the heart and who opens the eyes of the mind to understand and accept the truth which God has revealed to us. Faith enables us to relate to God rightly and confidently, with trust and reliance, by believing and adhering to his word, because he is utterly reliable and trustworthy. If we want to live, grow, and persevere in faith, then it must be nourished with the word of God. Fear does not need to cripple us from taking right action or rob us of our trust and reliance on God. Courage working with faith enables us to em-brace God's word of truth and love with confidence and to act on it with firm hope in God's promises. The love of God strengthens us in our faith and trust in him and enables us to act with justice and kindness towards our neighbour even in the face of opposition or harm. Do you allow the love of Christ to rule in your heart and mind, and to move your will to choose what is good in accordance with his will?

PARISH WEEKLY DIARY

ST JOHN BOSCO CHURCH KENILWORTH

THIS WEEK’S MASS TIMES

Recently I celebrated the forty-seventh anniversary of my ordination as a priest – in St Patrick’s Cathedral, Melbourne, on 18 May 1974, which happened to be the fifty-fourth birthday of the then Archbishop of Cra-cow who became Pope John Paul II. It’s a long time ago, but I remem-ber the day as if it were yesterday. And that’s how it will be for Will, Jack and Francis, whom we are about to ordain to the priesthood. They come from three different ethnic backgrounds; and each has his own vocation story to tell. They will be ordained priest at a time vastly dif-ferent to 1974. Since then both society and the Church have changed in dramatic ways, and that means they will serve as priests in a different world. But the call of Jesus is timeless, and it has reached deep into their heart. It’s a call that claims everything, and that can be daunting. I thought I knew what I was saying yes to all those years ago, but I didn’t. Ordination always means signing a blank cheque. So Will, Jack and Francis will sign the blank cheque on 29 June, and Jesus Christ will fill in the details as the years go by. He never disappoints or betrays those who say yes to him as these three men have done.

STEWARDSHIP “He asked them, ‘Why are you terrified? Do you not yet have faith?’” – MARK 4:40 Do you really trust God? Is God your first choice or last resort? Is your faith something you just do on Sunday or do you live the Gospel message every day of the week? Many of us know about God. How many of us have a personal relationship with Him? Start now, open your heart to receive our Lord. Talk and listen to Him throughout the day, in all circumstances.
