There were men and women who listened to<br />
Jesus and prayed with Him for those who were<br />
poor or sick or hungry or did not know that God<br />
the Father loved them. Jesus said to many <strong>of</strong> these<br />
men and women, “I am glad that you are praying<br />
with me. But I would like you to work with me<br />
too.” So the Apostles and others went around<br />
preaching about God’s love. Other men, and<br />
some women too, were busy helping the sick and<br />
feeding the hungry and teaching the children. As<br />
we grow up, Jesus says to us, “I am glad that you<br />
are praying for your family and for others. I<br />
would like you to work with me too.” To some<br />
He says, “I want you to get married and teach<br />
your children to be good and loving. To some<br />
boys he says, “I would like you to be priests when<br />
you grow up.” To others Jesus says, “I would like<br />
you to be religious brothers when you grow up.”<br />
To some girls He says, “I would like you to be<br />
nuns when you grow up.” And to still others,<br />
boys and girls, Jesus says, “I would like you to<br />
grow up to be single people working in the world<br />
and helping me to make others understand that<br />
God loves them.” So let us pray that as we grow<br />
up, we will try to know what Jesus wants us to<br />
be, and that we will be ready to listen to Him.
