Learning from Each Other

“I grow old always being taught.” This ancient Greek saying

expresses a truth about life that leads to heaven. It is only in a relationship

that we can be taught and learn from each other. With the Church as our mother

and teacher we learn to live together in humility, faith, patience and love

waiting for God’s blessings. It is together that we experience joy and sorrow,

anxiety and peace. We won’t always get what we want, when we want, how we want

it, but through humility, patience and love as expressed by Jairus and the

woman with the flow of blood in the Gospel, we learn to give glory to God.
