    Does it get any better??

     

    Homily

    Recall how the gospel ended last Sunday: Jesus told the chief priests and the other religious leaders that evil men and prostitutes were going to enter the Kingdom before they did. Visualize this: The angels in heaven have begun to rejoice for those who have repented and turned to God.  So Jesus said to the lawyers who have rejected him, “Have you not read the Law and the Prophets; where The Father’s servant, Isaiah, taught you how to bear fruit; we are to love one another with goodness and kindness, with tenderness and compassion.  In the John gospel Jesus addresses us this way: “I’ve chosen you from the world, to go and bear fruit that will last. “I am the vine; you are the branches.

    Mass 1 (12)

    Gethsemane
    by Mary Oliver


    The grass never sleeps.
    Or the roses.
    Nor does the lily have a secret eye that shuts until morning.


    Jesus said, wait with me. But the disciples slept.


    The cricket has such splendid fringe on its feet,
    and it sings, have you noticed, with its whole body,
    and heaven knows if it ever sleeps.


    Jesus said, wait with me. And maybe the stars did, maybe the wind wound itself
    into a silver tree, and didn't move, maybe
    the lake far away, where once he walked as on a
    blue pavement,
    lay still and waited, wild awake.


    Oh the dear bodies, slumped and eye-shut, that could not
    keep that vigil, how they must have wept,
    so utterly human, knowing this too
    must be a part of the story.

    Job 7: Job spoke, saying: Is not man's life on earth a drudgery?  Are not his days those of hirelings?

    1 Corinthians 9: I have become all things to all, to save at lease some.  All this I do for the sake of the gospel, so that I too may have a share in it.
