Graduation - This Is What We Are About

This Is What We Are About

 This is what we are about.

We plant the seeds that one day will grow.

We water seeds already planted,

knowing that they hold future promise.

We lay foundations that will need further development.

We provide yeast that produces far beyond our capabilities.

We cannot do everything, and there is a sense of liberation

in realizing that. This enables us to do something,

and to do it very well. It may be incomplete,

but it is a beginning, a step along the way,

an opportunity for the Lord's grace to enter and do the rest.

We may never see the end results, but that is the
difference

between the master builder and the worker.

We are workers, not master builders; ministers, not
messiahs.

We are prophets of a future not our own.

Amen.

Oscar Romero
