Tuesday of Week 18 in Ordinary Time

Jesus called out to them saying.
Courage, do not be afraid, it is I.
They never stopped praying.
We never stop saying, why.
I went to a funeral of a nurse.
She’s probably done more good than most of us.
For better or for worse.
And all without any fuss.She never walked on water.
But I’m sure she said , be not afraid.
To all, a kindly mother and daughter.
All her many kindnesses will now be repaid.

Maybe she has no obituary in the Times.
But she was a woman for all times.

……..

When Jesus called out
Were they still water afraid
Did they find courage

……

See Matthew 14: 22-26
