Our chapel Sanctuary Lamp is burning during the Twenty-fourth Week of Ordinary Time in memory of: + Kevin Flohaut + By St. Henry Community “The Sea and the Unseen” Every September for the past several years I go to the Oregon coast and do some Dungeness crab fishing. I find it to be a nice experience with nature, good physical work, and an encounter of the mysterious: for I never quite know what I will pull up from the dark waters of a Pacific bay. The encounter with the mystery of God is similar. It is often precisely the fact that there are things I do not comprehend about God which peak my interest in the Divine Being. For there will always be more to God that I do not understand compared to that which I have grown to comprehend. The reality of what we know in relation to what God knows, (and what God knows of us), must always accompany our daily routine and especially as we carry our daily cross. We have to be mature in the knowledge that our relationship with the Lord may not offer us any guarantees of earthly success, peace, or constant happiness. However, the very fact that we have a relationship with God gives us the energy to carry on – regardless of what the visible present or the unseen future has in store for us. And sometimes, by the grace of the good Lord, we actually do get a taste of true joy. This week, I’m hoping for the taste of fresh Dungeness crabs. And if I don’t get many or any . . . well, that’s all part of the mystery.

Me parece una experiencia agradable con la naturaleza, buen trabajo físico, y un encuentro de lo misterioso: Pues nunca realmente sé lo que sacaré de la oscuridad de una bahía Pacífica. Un encuentro con el misterio de Dios es similar. Frecuentemente es precisamente el hecho que hay cosas que no comprendo acerca de Dios que aumentan mi interés por el Ser Divino. Pues siempre habrá más de Dios que no entenderé comparado a lo que he llegado a comprender. La realidad de lo que sabemos en relación a lo que Dios sabe, (y lo que Dios sabe de nosotros), siempre debe acompañar nuestra rutina diaria y especialmente al cargar diariamente con nuestra cruz. Tenemos que ser adultos y conocer que nuestra relación con el Señor quizás no nos ofrezca ningún éxito de garantía aquí en la tierra, paz, o constante felicidad. Sin embargo, el solo hecho que tenemos una relación con Dios nos da la energía para continuar – a pesar de lo que lo visible nos presente o el futuro que nos espere. Y algunas veces, por la buena gracia de nuestro Señor, en realidad si saboreamos la alegría verdadera. Esta semana, tengo la esperanza de saborear cangrejos Dungeness frescos. Y si no obtengo muchos o ninguno. . . pues bueno, todo es parte del misterio. No hay Misa diaria esta semana. Aunque no habrá Misa el miércoles, si tendremos el Rosario a las 11:15am y adoración hasta las 5:00pm.
