It seems like I spend the most away-from-the-day-job time either trying to find some thing (like an address or a credit card receipt or the date and time of an appointment I forgot to write down, or some other piece of paper), or trying to find some one to volunteer for something I said I'd get volunteers to do. Maybe it's just that these tasks seem to take forever. For me, this 'finding' time is usually very frustrating, very discouraging. I'm fearful of failure, but the thing or person I'm looking for is nearly always found! Just like God taught the Israelites in the desert to depend on Him by sending manna every morning, I think He's teaching me by helping me find things and people on a regular basis.
So, as Paul says in the first reading from today's daily mass from his letter to the Romans (12:5-16ab), let us 'Rejoice in hope.' I need to worry less and hope more.
