2 St. Colman July 8, 2012 Page Two THE FOURTEENTH SUNDAY OF ORDINARY TIME Disappointment and failure seem to come to the fore this Sunday. Rejection is a very difficult thing to handle. It strikes at our self-esteem. How often we find ourselves in those situations. In a selection, I am bypassed and someone else is singled out. In friendship, someone else is preferred to me. In all of this there is often a deep sense of hurt. This came to Jesus from various quarters. As far as the townspeople were concerned, he was just to local to be important. But even Jesus relatives thought he was out of it. The Jewish leaders rejected him. We may never be hounded to death as Jesus was, but we will certainly suffer a sense of rejection. So did he. And that gives us great consolation. In the challenges of human existence, we can only do our best to meet the roadblocks and let Christ do the rest. We know our weaknesses but God writes straight with crooked lines. We do not always succeed, but with right motives and believing hearts, we never really fail. GOLDEN WEDDING CELEBRATION The Diocese of Pittsburgh is once again planning its annual Golden Wedding Celebration for the couples who are celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary.
