Fortunately that can be done by example and not just words.<BR/><BR/>Soutenus - What a great idea. I look forward to checking this out.<BR/><BR/>FOOL - How interesting to think of those who are "lost" as being "down deep"....Yes, we are all "fishermen" aren't we?<BR/><BR/>SB - What a great observance...I never thought of that. How true to wonder why He was interpreted that way....artists' choice for sure. :-)Mickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04362052610142449121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34135544.post-3355169067353326532008-07-03T12:27:00.000-04:002008-07-03T12:27:00.000-04:00Very unique, I don't think I've seen Jesus portray...Very unique, I don't think I've seen Jesus portrayed as a Roman before.Sanctus Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06189142564821094716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34135544.post-81722065856790456922008-07-02T01:34:00.000-04:002008-07-02T01:34:00.000-04:00Amen, Micki.

I appreciate your focus and comments because it fed mine.<BR/><BR/>Two key thoughts to me are: <BR/>The call heard was FROM JESUS. Amen to that! And the call CONTINUES. Hoo boy, how well we know that!<BR/><BR/>Maybe the most important thought though - for those who are established in the faith already - is this one: PUT OUT INTO THE DEEP.<BR/>For me that means look for and reach for and be there for those who are down deep - very lost, that is. Jesus, Himself, was commissioned very much likewise.<BR/><BR/>In my case it usually turns out that I needed the reciprocal grace of attention or help that I offered - as much as the one I helped needed my help! The grace usually takes the form of insight, which I value.<BR/><BR/>I'm thinking that going deep isn't about fishing by way of teaching or proclaiming the way. Perhaps it's first and foremost about BEING who I am - a Christian - and then about demonstrating the way in my own conduct and affairs, and pitching in where there are practical needs. <BR/><BR/>In Jesus, AspiringFOOL(FriendOfOurLord)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34135544.post-77124127004062452612008-07-01T22:00:00.000-04:002008-07-01T22:00:00.000-04:00When you get the chance, please come over to A Cat...When you get the chance, please come over to <A HREF="http://catholicnotebook.blogspot.com/2008/07/bloggers-choice-catholic-reading-list.html" REL="nofollow">A Catholic Notebook</A> and add your personal favorite Catholic books to the growing list via the com box.
