Prop Gl Cr Sun Pf I-VIII

115: 1 Kgs 19:9a,11-13a Ps 85:9-14

Rom 9:1-5 Mt 14:22-33

In the midst of our trials and tribulations, the Lord extends his hands to us and saves us.  He calms our frightened hearts through his quiet presence.  May our faith in the Lord draw God’s chosen people to the new covenant in Christ.

 

PLEASE PRAY FOR ALL OF OUR PARISHIONERS who are sick at home, in the hospital or in nursing homes and especially for Linda Sylvester (wife of Dominick Jr.), Irene Valdata, James Cruise, Mary Kane, Diane (Lane) Stone, Florence Altiere, Sister Rose Marita Lake, Raffaella Shapiro, Mary Garretson, Theresa Jasinski, Sr. Mary Theresa Leddy, Haley Weber, Yoshiaki Nakata, Vincent Anatele, Marian Mraz, Rose Stevenson, Stephen Golaszewski, William Waverka, and Bishop Vincent DePaul Breen.

 

He said, "Come." Peter got out of the boat and began to walk on the water toward Jesus. But when he saw how (strong) the wind was he became frightened; and, beginning to sink, he cried out, "Lord, save me!" Immediately Jesus stretched out his hand and caught him, and said to him, "O you of little faith, why did you doubt?"  Matthew 14:29-31

 

God spoke to Elijah in a tiny whispering sound, not in the wind, the earthquake or the fire.  Is it possible that God is speaking to you in quiet, unassuming ways?  Is it possible that God is calling you to priesthood or religious life?  If this is a possibility, do not hide your face, but consider contacting the Vocations Office 732-562-1990 or e-mail Vocations@diometuchen.org.  Or visit our website at www.diometuchen.org/vocations

Things to remember:

Love is grand. Divorce is a hundred grand.

I am in shape. Round is a shape.

Never be afraid to try something new.

Remember, amateurs built the ark. Professionals built the Titanic.

Conscience is what hurts when everything else feels so good.

Talk is cheap because supply exceeds demand.

Even if you are on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there.

Politicians and diapers have one thing in common. They should both be changed regularly and for the same reason.

An optimist thinks this is the best possible world. A pessimist fears that this is true.

There will always be death and taxes; however, death doesn't get worse every year.

In just two days, tomorrow will be yesterday.

I am a nutritional overachiever.

I am having an out of money experience.

I plan on living forever. So far, so good.

Practice safe eating--always use condiments.

A day without sunshine is like night.

It's frustrating when you know all the answers, but nobody bothers to ask you the questions.

The real art of conversation is not only to say the right thing at the right time, but also to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.

Brain cells come and brain cells go, but fat cells live forever.

Age doesn't always bring wisdom. Sometimes age comes alone.

Life not only begins at forty, it also begins to show.

 

And this one is the real truth, so pay attention:

You don't stop laughing because you grow old; you grow old because you stopped laughing.

Audrey Eisman
