WEEKLY RECTOR’S MESSAGE – December 30th – Fr. Thomas

/in /by

A Blessed New Year to everyone. Have you made your resolutions yet? Perhaps you’ve already broken some of them! As much as we’d prefer to change the past, we don’t live in an “Etch a Sketch” culture. We live in the present, with our eyes firmly fixed on the next life; so with that being said, I’ll share with you an anonymous admonition:

“Ladies and gentlemen, this is The Holy Spirit, your chief flight attendant. On behalf of the pilot Lord Jesus, the entire crew, welcomes you aboard airline flight 2023 with non-stop service from January 1st to December 31st. Our flight time will be of 365 days. If you have sorrows, resentments, regrets in your luggage, please leave them on the counter number 2022. Those passengers carrying love will have preferred seating by the windows to contemplate a better world outside. At this time, make sure your faith in in its full upright position and that your seat belt of hope is correctly fastened. Also, your portable despair devices must be turned off through this trip. We recommend that no one, under any circumstances, utilize the emergency exit during this flight. In case of turbulence, keep calm and trust the pilot of this aircraft – God Himself. Press the button of faith and you will notice that at the same time He is piloting this plane, He is also sitting by your side. Thanks and enjoy the flight.”

And remember, if God is your co-pilot, change seats!

Every blessing for a great new year.

WEEKLY RECTOR’S MESSAGE – December 23rd – Fr. Thomas

/in /by

In the December 1995 issue of Guideposts, Elizabeth King English tells of a very special Christmas that she once experienced. The year was 1949. She and her husband Herman owned an appliance store that sold a variety of items, including toys. That particular Christmas, they had practically sold out of their toys. Elizabeth had been uneasy about leaving the shop that Christmas Eve because one package on layaway had not been claimed yet. It might not have been anything important, but on the other hand, it might be some child’s only gift. So Elizabeth and Herman stayed open as long as they could, but finally they decided to close the store and head home.

The next day, Elizabeth couldn’t seem to get into the Christmas spirit. She cleaned a little around the house, but she felt restless. Strangely enough, she began to get the urge to go to the store that morning. Now Herman and Elizabeth never opened the store on Christmas, and the weather outside was a freezing mix of snow and sleet, but still Elizabeth felt drawn to go to the store. After an hour, Elizabeth gave up fighting the urge and told Herman she was going down to the store. He wasn’t very encouraging, but she had made up her mind. As Elizabeth slid along the snowy sidewalks to the store, her numb body mocked the urgent sensation she had about that day. But as she got to the store, she noticed two small boys, about six and nine years old, standing in front of the store. The little fellows got very excited when they saw Elizabeth coming. They were almost frozen. The younger one was crying, but he stopped when he saw Elizabeth. When Elizabeth scolded them for being out in the cold, they explained that they had been waiting for her.

The older boy explained to Elizabeth that his younger brother didn’t get anything for Christmas, and so they had come there to get the little boy, Jimmy, some skates. He pulled out three dollars and placed them in front of her. Sadly, Elizabeth explained to them that she had sold almost all the toys in the store, and they were out of skates. But as she glanced around the store, she noticed the lone package on the layaway shelf. She walked over and ripped off the wrapping to find that it contained a pair of child’s skates! Jimmy reached for them and tried them on. They fit perfectly. When the boys tried to pay Elizabeth for the skates, she told them to use their money for a couple of pairs of good gloves instead. The boys grinned in amazement at this gift of free skates.

After the children were all warm, Elizabeth began to close up the shop again. She remarked to the boys that it was so lucky they had not frozen out there that morning. She asked, “. . . how did you boys know I would come?” The older boy answered, “I knew you would come. I asked Jesus to send you.” Elizabeth went home to her family, but now she was in the Christmas spirit.

From time to time we hear someone say, “Wouldn’t it be great if it could be Christmas all year long.” Surprise! That was God’s intent. That is why God visited our planet and gave us the gift of His Son. The world is waiting for the people of God to live out what we say we believe: That Jesus Christ is the hope of the world; that living the Christ life of love and sacrifice and self-giving is the only ultimate way that humanity can be saved. When Christmas lives in our hearts, then we will have at least made a beginning to spreading the spirit of Christmas to the entire world and not just at one time of the year, but all through the year, and every year.

WEEKLY RECTOR’S MESSAGE – December 16th – Fr. Thomas

/in /by

A ninety year old couple sat on their front porch one night. The old man was overcome with the romantic atmosphere of the evening and he said to his wife, who was hard of hearing, “I’m proud of you.” “Huh?” she said. “I’m tired of you too.” More often than not the more familiar we are with something, the less fascination we have with it. We get tired of things very quickly and the things that once fascinated us, now bring little emotion. A young person gets a new toy, but eventually the toy gets old and sits on a shelf. An adult gets a new car but after a year or so the newness has worn off and he wants a new one.

We have a saying that “familiarity breeds contempt.” But more often than not, “familiarity just breeds indifference.” And the more we become familiar with something the less fascination we have. The newness fades and we lose the wonder. And that happens often with us at Christmastime too. We’ve heard the Christmas story over and over, and slowly the wonder of what occurred some 2,000 years ago diminishes. It fails to do much for us spiritually. The old, old story, has become just that the old, old story.

Christmas is a time for joy and a time for worship, because without giving us a single penny, a poor child has made us rich beyond our wildest dreams. Rich with grace, mercy, forgiveness and the hope of leaving the darkness of the past behind. And this child Himself is still the King of Kings who wants to be your best friend! Unbelievable? Yes, for some, but for others, it’s the best news they’ve ever heard!

WEEKLY RECTOR’S MESSAGE – December 9th – Fr. Thomas

/in /by

Tomorrow, December 10th, is the anniversary of the death of Thomas Merton in 1968, one of the most popular spiritual writers of the 20th century. Merton was originally raised in France, and for a short time in England, where he was baptized as an Anglican, before moving to Long Island. Eventually he became a member of the Roman Catholic Abbey of Our Lady of Gethsemani, near Bardstown, in central Kentucky, where he lived from 1941 to his accidental death in 1968 while on a mission in Thailand. Merton wrote over fifty books, but perhaps his most famous one is The Seven Storey Mountain.

Amongst my favorite quotes by Merton is: “People may spend their whole lives climbing the ladder of success only to find, once they reach the top, that the ladder is leaning against the wrong wall.” As we draw close to the end of another year, it’s time to evaluate our past, and realistically look forward to the future. That being said, I’ll leave you with one of my favorite prayers.

My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going. I do not see the road ahead of me. I cannot know for certain where it will end. Nor do I really know myself, and the fact that I think I am following your will does not mean that I am actually doing so. But I believe that the desire to please you does in fact please you and I hope that I have that desire in all that I am doing. And I know that if I do this, you will lead me by the right road; although, I may know nothing about it. Therefore will I trust you always though I may seem to be lost and in the shadow of death, I will not fear, for you are ever with me and you will never leave me to face my perils alone. Thomas Merton – Thoughts in Solitude

WEEKLY RECTOR’S MESSAGE – December 2nd – Fr. Thomas

/in /by

Some years ago, I remember someone telling me that a race track was being built in Royal Palm Beach. WOW, I thought with excitement; until I learned that it was a gas station, not a thoroughbred racing venue. Moral of the story. . . what we hear and think is not always was is “reality.”

The shepherds in the fields, the Wise Men on the road to Bethlehem, the women who went to the tomb early on the first Easter Sunday, were not expecting to find what they thought they were looking for. How many times in our lives do we experience the same situations? God likes to surprise us, but only with good things. We meet our life long partner, find the perfect job, home, school . . .

Accept your path, with its twists and turns. The adventure is in the journey, not the arriving. Even if you’re on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit there. And when we lose hope and think it’s the end, God says, “Relax, it’s just a bend, not the end.” The Good News is that the task ahead is never greater than the Power behind us.

So, in this season of giving, remember that what we are is God’s gift to us; and what we become is our gift to God.
