Dear Parish Families,
I think that all of us would agree that everyone wants to live a happy, peaceful existence. And yet,
the world in which we live has become a violent, polarized, and turbulent place that threatens to rob
us of the happiness that God wants us to have. Our own personal problems and difficulties in life
can also toss obstacles in our way causing us to give in to fear, worry, doubt and anxiety. At some
point, all of us must come to the realization that true happiness can only be found in God. St.
Augustine writing in the 5th century put it this way, “Our hearts are restless, O God, until they rest
in you.” From a 21st century perspective we might say, “No God, No Happiness. Know God, Know
Happiness.” No “thing” in this life can give us the ultimate happiness that we seek. It can only come
from a true and authentic relationship with God.
Prayer is one of the key ingredients that can lead us to happiness. In prayer we:
�� develop grateful hearts and come to know that who we are and everything that we have comes
from God.
�� can ask God to inspire us and to uplift our spirits whenever we are feeling low..
�� ask God to bless us.
�� Ask God to guide our mind and to give us a happier outlook on life.
Ultimately, all of us must remember that God never gives us a burden that we cannot bear, so we
merely have to turn to Him for strength when we find the burdens of live weighing to heavily upon
us. When we remember God’s love and promise everlasting life, even
the most difficult challenges suddenly seem much easier to bear. The
end result is that we discover happiness and put a smile on our face.
God bless you.
Fr. Vince
Prayer of the week: O Lord, you are my hope
when times are rough. When I encounter heavy
burdens you lift me up and give me a reason to
hope for the future. Through you, my heart be-
comes filled with joy. I have faith that every-
thing that happens is a part of your plan. While I
struggle under my burden, I know that you are
there to support me and guide me through eve-
rything that happens. No matter what happens
during this day, I know that your everlasting joy
will await me. Even when I struggle and face
obstacles, I will feel happy knowing that I am
doing your bidding. Please bless me and help
me to grow in my knowledge of you. In Jesus’
name, I pray. Amen.
