Paul sees his ministry as building up the “temple of God”, and solidly rooting his people in Christ, and acknowledges that others have done this ministry before and after him, all working together. In the Gospel, Jesus says that we, like Peter, can walk over the storms and deep waves of life if we keep our eyes on Him, if we are rooted in Him.We needpriests to help us keep our rootedness in Christ, our eyes fixed upon Him in daily life today. Have you ever considered a vocation to the priesthood? Can you encourage others to it? Will you pray for more vocations?
