USCSI REFLECTIONS

St. Bridget

Matthew 12:46-50

Mark tells us that when Jesus set out on his public mission, his friends tried to restrain him, for they said he was mad (Mark 3:21). Even if a Christian finds that those closest to him or her do not understand, there still remains the fellowship of Jesus Christ and the fellowship of all who love the Lord. I am not sure if any of us reading this is related but I do know for sure that there is something very special which makes me feel very connected with you. And that is our being one in Jesus Christ. I am so grateful for this relationship!
