Tuesday of Week 19 in Ordinary Time

 

 

 

 

Whoever humbles himself like this child.
Is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
Are we just too rational to be like a child.
Will we ever reach our own heaven.

St Claire’s faith is not be matched.
In profound humility.
Our faith barely scratched.
Where is our simplicity.

I just can’t match this faith.
I doubt and question.
Always seeking the certainty of faith.
Open to every new rational suggestion.

I am certainly no saint.
My selfishness too great, my faith is too faint.

…….

Where then is our faith
We seek it everywhere
It’s so elusive

….

See Mathew 18
