Thanks Sister Christine...hope your knee gets better asap.  I struggle to understand why not only the world, but also Christianity, Catholicism is all so torn, battered and bruised ...it's as if my heart has fallen into a rushing tear-filled gutter.  I understand why Jesus wept over Jerusalem....it's a powerful image for me.  The Gospel reading last Sunday is somewhat pertinent as to why we must trust in the Lord in times of difficulty.....Although I think I would have sank as did Peter but on the other hand I would have still trusted that Jesus would rescue me as I sank Lol) Renewed thanks.
