Monday of the Third Week of Lent
Readings of the Day
[link removed]
Hungry. Thirsty. Sick. Alone. Today's readings offer us several images
of people at their most vulnerable. Perhaps they were also
experiencing high levels of anxiety. I imagine the widows during
Israel's 3 1/2 years of drought and famine to be anxious about when
the rains would finally come and how they would survive. Naaman is
likely anxious when he expresses anger at Elisha's simple
instructions.
In my community, and at the Catholic Charities agency where I am
privileged to work, we are currently focused on how the Novel
Coronavirus and COVID-19 will affect all those we hold dear. Can we
provide a safe space for program participants to continue to come in
for services? Will our childrens' schools close? Are we able to
protect our senior neighbors or those with chronic illnesses? Will I
get sick? Will my loved ones? Our anxiety levels are high.
During these anxious times many seek reassurance ("When shall I go and
behold the face of God?" "My soul longs for you, O God."). Let us pray
that, during each day of this pandemic, we are able to be a source of
comfort and of relief to each other. We will not alleviate all anxiety
and many fears may come to pass, but we can support one another in
small ways.
Shannon Kelly is the Chief Operating Officer at Catholic Charities of
Orange, Sullivan & Ulster, one of the human service agencies of
Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of New York.
