A LITTLE FAITH Today our readings are about faith, frustration, and how much is enough. Habakkuk is a complainer having an
argument with God. Timothy is encouraging a community challenged by cowardice and the apostles want more faith than they have. Things aren't happening fast enough for any of them or for us. All of them and we want God to do something sooner rather than later and we want God to give us a reason to believe that it will all work out. What does God do? God puts it back on them--and us--telling
Habakkuk to describe the world he wants; telling the apostles to do more than the expected. Doing more with less is a familiar phrase today and a reminder that a little
faith may be enough even for the most difficult times. Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
Sometimes human relationships go awry, but Christ's choice for us is irrevocable. In marriage celebrations, the Church always recalls God's faithfulness to help prepare married couples for enduring the inevitable rough spots. The Byzantine liturgy does this by adorning the couple with crowns that remind them of the martyr's crown. The couple therefore takes on a vocation of witnessing to the sacredness of life in all of its suffering and joy, and of keeping their eyes fixed on the banquet of heaven. In Eastern theology, people have a liturgical vocation to give God praise, and marriage fits within that plan. It is not so much saying prayers that counts, but becoming prayer. Interestingly, in this liturgy the couple never utters a word other than joining in the community's chants; there are no marriage vows as such. There is therefore not a hint of our Western Christian sense that marriage is a legal contract. Rather, it is all about living out one's baptismal vocation, embracing the cross, pouring oneself out in love, and opening to the grace of the Holy Spirit. --James Field, Copyright (c) J. S.

Saint Jude Feast Day: October 28; Patron of hopeless cases
Most holy apostle, Saint Jude, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, the Church honors and invokes you universally as the patron of hopeless cases. Pray for me, I am so helpless and alone. Make use, I implore you, of that particular privilege given to you to bring visible and speedy help where help is almost despaired of. Come to my assistance in this great need, that I may receive the consolation and help of heaven in all my necessities, tribulations, and sufferings, particularly (here make your request), and that I may praise God with you and all the elect forever. I promise, Blessed Saint Jude, to be ever mindful of this great favor, to always honor you as my special and powerful patron, and to gratefully encourage devotion to you.
AMEN

A Prayer for Priests By St. Therese of Lisieux O Jesus, eternal Priest, keep your priests within the shelter of Your Sacred Heart, where none may touch them. Keep unstained their anointed hands, which daily touch Your Sacred Body. Keep unsullied their lips, daily purpled with your Precious Blood. Keep pure and unearthly their hearts, sealed with the sublime mark of the priesthood. Let Your holy love surround them and shield them from the world's contagion. Bless their labors with abundant fruit and may the souls to whom they minister be their joy and consola on here and in heaven their beau ful and everlas ng crown. Amen.

What do we gain from prayer? Once a man was asked, “what did you gain by regularly praying to God?” The man replied, “Nothing…but let me tell you what I lost: anger, ego, greed, depression, insecurity, and fear of death.” Sometimes the answer to our prayers is not gaining but losing; which ultimately is the gain. –Anonymous
This unattributed quote has been making its way across the internet via social media the past few weeks. Read-ing it, I was moved to reflect on the question, “What do we really gain from praying?”
In the quote, the man explains what he has lost through prayer, but truthfully each of the things he says he has lost are actually gains if you look to the positive.
He lost anger… but gained happiness, lost ego… but gained compassion, lost greed…but gained generosity and gratitude, lost depression…and gained joy.
He lost insecurity…but found comfort in God’s word, lost fear of death….and gained everlasting life.
So, what do we gain from regularly praying to God? Here are some thoughts:
1. Prayer helps our physical and psychological health. Praying makes us feel better, reduces anxiety, and calms us in our times of need.
2. Prayer deepens our relationship with God. When things are going wrong, we want to tell our problems to a friend. We want someone to tell us that things will be alright; to comfort and console us. If Jesus is truly our friend, then isn’t He the One best friend to offer us comfort? By going to Him, we deepen our relation-ship with Him and find comfort and consolation in His promise.
3. Prayer helps us to draw on God’s strength. When we realize that we are helpless to solve our problems on our own and that we need God’s strength to sustain us, remember Ephesians 6:10 where we are told to draw your strength from the Lord and from his mighty power.
4. With prayer, joy and Grace are guaranteed. God’s never ending supply of grace is waiting for us if we just ask. Prayer is the vehicle by which His grace is heaped upon us and our depression and fears are turned to joy.
5. With prayer, God supplies our needs and fulfills our desires. A verse that my wife Diane and I held close to our hearts early in our marriage was this magnificent promise from the gospel of Matthew: Again, [amen,] I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything for which they are to pray, it shall be granted to them by my heavenly Father. I can’t speak for others, but this promise has worked for us 100% of the time.
6. With prayer, we gain wisdom. When we are making a decision, any important decision, like taking a new job, buying a house, picking a college to attend, or deciding on surgery, He will guide us.
Prayer is always positive and we profit from it whenever we pray. If we pray regularly, we not only loose anger, ego, greed, depression, insecurity, and fear of death, but we gain so much more. Got a problem my friend; why not try praying? God’s grace is there for the asking.
