Message from the Rector Dear People of God, Father Medard Laz offers wonderful stories and reflections on his Treats for the Soul website. It is terrific, and beautifully connects the mystery of God with our lives. To read his daily reflections please, go to www.treatsforthesoul.org I share with you a terrific and timely Lenten reflection. Treat yourself and go to his website. There is an old legend about three men. Each man carried two sacks one sack tied in front of his neck and the other sack resting on his back. When the first man was asked what was in his sacks, he said, In the sack on my back are all the good things friends and family have done for me. That way they re hidden from view. In the front sack are all the bad things that have happened to me and all the mistakes I ve made. Every now and then I stop, open the front sack containing all the bad things that have happened to me take the things out, examine them, and think about them. Because he stopped so much to concentrate on all the bad stuff in his life, his pace was slow and he made little progress. When the second man was asked about his sacks, he replied in exactly an opposite way. In the front sack are all the good things that have happened to me, he said. I like to see them, so quite often I take them out to show them off to people and reminisce. But what about the sack in the back? he was asked. He answered, I keep all my mistakes, all my regrets in there and carry them all the time. Sure they re heavy. They slow me down, but you know, for some reason I can t put them down. When the third man was asked about his sacks, he answered in a slightly different way. Like the second man he answered, The sack in front is where I keep all the blessings I ve experienced all the great things other people have done for me. The weight isn t a problem in fact, it keeps me moving forward. A God Provide But, as for the second sack, he answered, The sack on my back is empty. There s nothing in it. I cut a big hole in its bottom. Then I put all my regrets and all my mistakes from the past in that sack. They go in one end and out the other, so I m not carrying around any extra weight at all. A God Nod I believe that is a good story for us as we continue our Lenten journey. We all carry around hurts and regrets that weigh us down. This Lent will be a great time to cut a hold in our sack and let those hurts and regrets fall through so that we can focus on the good things that have happened in our lives. We need to trust in the mercy and forgiveness of God. Lent is a time to repent to rethink again changes we want to make in our lives with the help and grace of God. Lent is also a marvelous time for the Sacrament of Reconciliation. What a wonderful gift you can give to yourself. Walking with you this Lent, Fr. Greg P.S. A Blessed and Happy Birthday to Cardinal Blase Cupich who turns 70 this Tuesday! Know our prayers are with you. You are so young looking, Cardinal Cupich! 2 Second Sunday of Lent March 17, 2019
