PASTORAL CORNER
Never Looking Back .... ..
All of us have put our hands to certain ploughs. We've all begun tasks of some sort or another. But few of us have never looked back or never questioned choices of directions or even vocations in our lives. It is a normal and benecial part of life to search always for continued discernment and where necessary, to change or adapt decisions we may have made about our life's direction. Is Jesus condemning this type of discernment when he says hat anyone who puts hand to plough and looks back is not fit for God's kingdom? Of course not.

Jesus is talking about commitment and staying with our commitments when the going gets tough. Going up to Jerusalem is a major theme in Luke's Gospel, which presents the whole life of Jesus as a journey up to Jerusalem where he will suffer and die. In the First Reading Elisha shows his commitment to following Elijahs call to join him in ministry by rst slaughtering his oxen and burning his plough, thus eliminating any possible return to his former vocation as a farmer. Commitment, commitment, and a willingness to stay the course, come what may.
All of us answered Jesus call to share his ministry in our baptism. In baptism we have put our hands to another plough following Jesus as his disciples. Today many people in the Church are discouraged by the failure of the Church to truly even try, let alone live up to the reforms envisioned by the Second Vatican Council. Many are looking back and having second thoughts, and perhaps doubts and regrets. But if we keep on looking back our attention will be divided. So too will our energy. We won't be fully committed. We will be half-hearted. We are likely to lose time, to lose sight of our goal, and be tempted to turn back or even
have made a commitment to stay aware of how and where the collegiately licensed items they sell -- such as sweatshirts and T-shirts -- are produced. (Cat/10//cNews$en//ce)
quit altogether.
But if we keep looking forward, we can give our undivided attention to the chosen task. We will be completely committed. We will be wholehearted. That will give us great strength. When all our resources are enlisted and harnessed to the task, we will not be easily sidetracked. And so we have an excellent chance of completing the task. Those who are wholehearted nd joy in the task, despite hardship. There is no such joy for the halfhearted. So the message is: Don't turn
