Thoughts for April 13 from Fr Willie Doyle

How sweet it is when our day is ended to find the body tired, the head heavy and jaded with work done for Jesus. The day has been a long one, bearing to us more than its share of disagreeable duties and unpleasant tasks; unexpected troubles have met us … but through it all we have unflinchingly plodded on, doing the Master’s work for love of Him.

    How true is the passage above; Father Doyle labored continuously for the Lord, for souls, for the general well-being of others. We, too, work at many things, but we must admit, those tasks that give glory to God are the most pleasing to us, and of course, to the Lord, and no matter how challenging the task, and how tired we are, having done truly good things, particularly, doing the will of God, we sleep in peace, and even many times in joy, knowing we did that which we were called to do by God.
    Thank you, Father Doyle, for the great reminder. Please pray that we will be eager to work as you did with selflessness and charity.
