The Lord’s Laughter

“A joyful heart is a good medicine, but a broken

spirit dries up the bones.”

Proverbs 17:22

Mike went fishing one day, but at the end he had not caught a single fish. On the way back home, he stopped at a fish store. “I want to buy three trout, please,” he said to the owner. “But in-

stead of putting them in a bag, can you throw them to me?” “Throw them? Why do you want me to do that?” the owner

asked. Mike replied, “So I can tell everyone that I caught three fish!”

WEEKLY MASS SCHEDULE

Many of us name

Psalm 23 as our

favorite. It is sung

at funerals, includ-

ing at Blessed

Mother Teresa's. It

adorns many a

home in framed

needlepoint and

refrigerator mag-

nets. Many of the

words remain in

our memory, avail-

able for instant rec-

itation when the

time is right. Of

course, truth be

told, it may be the

only real psalm we

know, or at least

the only one whose

number we know.

There is a reason

for the popularity

of this psalm. The

image it conveys to

us is one of helpless

little lambs that are so very loved by a Good Shepherd.

We see ourselves as lambs being led by someone who

cares so much for us. When we are hurt, he holds us.

When we are lost, he finds us.

Some have said that, because most of us have never seen

a real shepherd at work, the image does not have the

same power. But the popularity of the image tells a dif-

ferent story. Add to the images mentioned above the re-

ality that this Good Shepherd lays down his life for his

sheep, and the image is pretty easy to understand. We

hear his voice, and we follow; we follow him into eternal

life.
