Kiltimagh is the focus parish of our prayer for this week. Joe got five talents. John got two talents. And I, Jim, what do I get, just one talent, one miserable talent. What can I do with one talent! Nothing, so I'll do nothing. Instead of looking at the positive side & rejoicing in the fact that he had received a talent, Jim made comparisons, others got more than he did, he felt cheated and decided not to bother using the talent he had received, in fact, he did worse, he buried it. If I look with envy at the talents of others, I give more attention to the limitations rather than the possibilities of my life. I can only work with the talents and gifts I have been given but I must work with them, not ignore them or bury them. Talents are given to be used, to be developed, to be shared, to help in building the kingdom of God. God invests in us, not to see his talents buried, not to hear us off-loading our own responsibilities by blaming others, not to see us cringe helplessly and uselessly in fear, or to be rendered inactive by false humility. God's desire is to be able one day to congratulate us on a job well done and to reward us with the happiness of heaven. [Adapted from Denis McBride and Sylvester O'Flynn] We are praying for our diocese because ....through prayer we will come to know how the Lord plans to use our gifts & talents for renewal in our hearts, our parishes & our diocese.
