| St. Cuthbert |
History
Cuthbert was a poor shepherd boy from the British
Isles. Once while playing with some friends, one of the other boys blurted out,
"Cuthbert, how can you waste your time playing games when you have been
chosen to be a priest and a bishop?" This confused both Cuthbert and the
boy who had said it! When he was 15, Cuthbert did become a priest. He would
visit people in their homes to help them grow in their faith. Because he spoke
like poor people did, he was trusted and admired.
Activity
Not everybody is fortunate enough to have a friend
tell them what they are supposed to be doing with their lives! The fact is, God
is always telling us and drawing us to the work He wants us to accomplish.
Today, spend a few minutes alone with God. Ask Him to tell you want He wants
you to do with your life, and then sit quietly and listen. Don’t be frustrated
if you don’t hear a clear word today. He will reveal His purpose when the time
is right, so just ask again tomorrow.
