Happy Father's Day!

Picture from Patron Saints Index
Kind of late already in most places, but Happy Father's Day to our dads and priests! Priests are fathers too! :-)

(a song again, but I couldn't find a video and YouTube is prohibited :-D but at least it makes a good poem)


Waiting in the Wing
Point of Grace


Hearts of hope seem hard to find these days
As darker deeds Have their time on center stage
We watch it all unfolding scene by scene
And a happy ending seems a fading dream
Fear and desperation have their day
At least until faith steps up to say

I believe though God is out of sight
He's working in the middle of all things
Evil may have its time in the spotlight
But love is waiting in the wings
Love is always waiting in the wings

It's your life as it plays out don't forget it
Heartache comes but the story’s not done yet
When shadows come, your courage wants to fade
But in a moment, everything can change

I believe though God is out of sight
He's working in the middle of all things
Evil may have its time in the spotlight
But love is waiting in the wings
Love is always waiting in the wings

There's always more to any story
Than just what's here and now
There's not one hopeless situation
That can't be turned around

I believe though God is out of sight
He's working in the middle of all things
Evil may have its time in the spotlight
But love is waiting in the wings
Love is always waiting in the wings


Saint Joseph worked very hard for his Holy Family. More often than not, he probably didn’t understand what was happening. Yet he worked on though he couldn’t see, trusting God in each event.
Happy Father’s Day to all hardworking fathers!
Oh, and please go to CT's for a special treat!

Hi,
I just wanted to say that you have an amazing blog. I'm happy to see that St. Therese is so loved. I was just wondering if you would take a look at my new blog dealing with all of the different miracles and marvels in the Catholic church.

God Bless!
Josh
