How appropriate, then, it is that we celebrate Father’s Day, honoring our earthly fathers, who are given charge of families and exercising a capability of keeping things at even keel during the storms of life. The privilege of having a good father at the helm of family life is a blessing that not all families have. It is so important that fathers provide a great example of living faith for their children to follow as together they seek to grow in virtue and holiness. Whatever our state in life, in the midst of our sense of being overwhelmed by the depths of life’s problems, Christ offers us a way forward. We put our trust in Him. Jesus offers His disciples the inner peace that the world cannot give, and here we are asked to let go of our fears and accept that same gift. It does not mean that we will not experience life’s storms and challenges. It does mean that we will be able to ride such encounters like a good sailor, accumulating the wisdom that centers us on what matters, what is true. Even when Jesus seems asleep in the boat, our trust in Him can bring about the easing of the wind and the calming of the sea. We’re reminded that we’re never truly alone, for indeed “God is with us.” Last Sunday evening the Youth Group of our parish feted me with a fabulous celebration honoring my 50 years of priestly service.
