If only you knew
The woman at Jacob’s well thought that the man before her eyes was just one other man, perhaps a little ignorant of social customs and differences between Samaritans and Jews, so Jesus had to tell her “if you only knew what God is offering and who it is that is saying to you: Give me a drink…” (John 4:10). If we only knew what it is what it is that is offered to each one of us, and who it is that is offering it...
God who says in Jeremiah 29:11: that "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future", has a plan for each one of us, the discovery of which is the key to our true and lasting happiness.
This website is about that discovery through the reflection of the daily readings of the Catholic Lectionary, and through the celebration of the Eucharist. It is also about helping others make this discovery, more specifically, less privileged children in Africa.
The one who seeks always finds
"You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart" (Jeremiah 29:13). To find God is to find life fullfilment. God has done more than making self available to those who seek God. God is the Good Shepherd who came out in search of his lost sheep.
"If a person wants something badly enough, he will find a way; but if he doesn't want it badly enough, he will find an excuse." Christ who "came that they may have life, and have it to the full" (John 10:10), and who identifies identifies with the least of his breathren, is certain to assist those who earnestly seek life's meaning through him, and who struggle to give better life opportunities to the less privileged.
