Dear Fellow Traveller<br />
I was thinking !!<br />
Well the ‘Year of Faith’ has officially begun and many are wondering what<br />
does this mean for me. We live in an age where many practicing Catholics are<br />
somewhat reluctant to take anything coming from the head office seriously but I<br />
think this particular topic has some good merits. For a start it marks the<br />
anniversary of Vatican II which I believe brought about thinking and ideas that<br />
were ahead of its time. Clearly the institutional church was not ready for the<br />
change it witnessed in the world and perhaps lacking the courage and conviction<br />
to embrace it. Rather than looking back in disappointment over lost opportunities<br />
I believe that this might be the time to re-examine what ‘faith’ means to me<br />
personally. I must thank my friend Bridie for asking me “What is faith anyway”<br />
and I struggled to give a simple concise answer.<br />
Having given it some seriously thought perhaps it might be answered thus;<br />
like so many others I like to occasionally have a swim at Blackrock. Part of the<br />
experience is watching the kids jumping into the sea from the tower. I had<br />
climbed up the steps and decided that it was too much for an old fellow like me<br />
and decided to leave it to the younger ones. I was scared to take the jump even<br />
though I could see that it was safe. I had all the relevant information; I had<br />
witnessed others doing; it so why not? I guess it was a<br />
lack of trust. I imagined that I might get hurt, panic and<br />
drown or something silly like that. Then last Thursday<br />
was a lovely day for a swim with calm, clear water. I<br />
was conscious that it was the official start day of the<br />
‘Year of Faith’ and wondered if I could do something<br />
special to mark the day. I decided that to jump would<br />
require faith. Faith that the water would catch me,<br />
faith that it would be OK, faith in my own ability, faith<br />
in the knowing that it was possible. So now was my<br />
chance, no going back, a LEAP OF FAITH.<br />
I believe faith includes listening, knowing, understanding, growing, living,<br />
trusting, believing but also needs the courage and conviction for the doing,<br />
experiencing and living.<br />
Have a Wonder-full week.<br />
F.K.<br />
“ I discovered, and I’m still discovering right up to this moment, that it is only by<br />
living completely in this world that one learns to have faith. By this ‘worldliness’ I<br />
mean living unreservedly in life’s duties, problems, successes and failures. In so<br />
doing we throw ourselves completely into the arms of God... That , I think, is faith”.<br />
(Dietrich Bohnoeffer; July 21 1944)<br />
