I would like to devote this column to our students of both Arma and
Girard. We are starting a new academic year. This is a good opportunity
to reflect on the gifts of thought and reason which God has given to us
and the gift of an education which millions of our ancestors did not have.
Since knowledge is precious, and ignorance can be deadly, we must
resolve to take full advantage of this gift of education. A good education
squandered in youth is very difficult to make up for as an adult. And
cramming all night before a major test usually produces dim results.
Therefore let us decide now to be studious students, determined to study
and learn. There of course is nothing wrong with fun and games, but
only after our scholastic duties are done. We must remember that God
wants us to be smart Catholics, well educated and equipped mentally to
spread his kingdom. It does not please God if we keep ourselves ignorant
either deliberately or through sloth. God gave us a mind; he wants us to
strengthen it. So let us always put homework ahead of video games and
our favorite band. We will enjoy them
more anyway if all of our academic
duties are finished. Know that all of you
students and your families will be in my
prayers during this entire academic year.
