Desert Reflections: “Come to me”

Thanks to Fr Ted Lawson CSSR for making our lives much richer these past few months and best wishes as he begins his new assignment in Wisconsin. Come back soon!

In today’s gospel, Jesus invites us to come to him when we feel burdened.  Fr Ted points out, from a recent experience, that whatever we’re doing can be overwhelming when we try to do it alone.  But, when we do whatever we’re doing with Jesus, anything is possible.
