Thursday’s Thought for the Day:

‘Catholic Schools seek to reflect a distinctive vision of life and a corresponding philosophy of education.’
(Vision 08: A Vision of Catholic Education in Ireland)

Scripture:
‘For so many marvels I thank you; a wonder am I, and all your works are wonders.’ (Psalm 139)

Reflection:
Sometimes, if we’re fortunate, we can see great and amazing wonders outside of ourselves – in nature, in people, in the arts.
But we can forget the wonder within ourselves.
We may fall into the trap of thinking little of ourselves; we may have low self-esteem.
This can happen because we believe, rightly or wrongly, that others think little of us.
However, the deep personal love God has for us surpasses all this.
But it can be a struggle to believe such wonderful things about ourselves without getting big-headed or arrogant about it, as some do.
So, the challenge is to get the balance right.
Will we rise to that challenge?
Will our Catholic school community encourage us and support us to rise to that challenge?
