YOUR CURSILLO NEEDS YOU!

"A person who doubts himself, is like a man who would enlist in the ranks of his enemies and bear arms against himself."

Alexander Dumas: The Three Musketeers, 1844.

Twice a year, we meet for our Diocesan Ultreya and at these meetings the call goes out for new people to step forward and take a leading role in Cursillo. Who me? I couldn't: I'm not clever enough, I'm too busy... the list of excuses goes on, BUT none of these apply when God calls for we know He has chosen us and therefore will supply what we need, be it time or anything else. Look at those who have responded in the past from the boy Samuel to the disciples, on the face of it not the ideal choices for the task in hand BUT they, with God's grace did the job.

As you read this you will be aware that we have two roles to be filled Lay Director by the end of the year and 4th Day Officer this month [Julie Withers has now been elected to this position - Ed]. Is God calling YOU? Please pray about this and see if you can respond "Here am I, send me."

If you think you're beaten, you are.
If you think you dare not, you don't.
If you'd like to win, but think you can't
it's almost a cinch that you won't.
If you think you'll lose, you're lost.
For out in the world we find --- success begins with a persons will
it's all in the state of mind.
If you think you're outclassed, you are.
You've got to think high to rise,
You've got to be sure of yourself
before you can ever win a prize.
Lifes battles don't always go,
To the stronger or faster man,
But sooner or later the man who wins,
Is the one who thinks he can!

Put the Lord into these thoughts and you just can't go wrong!
