Daniel 9: 4b-10
I pleaded with Yahweh my God and made this confession:
'O my Lord, God great and to be feared, you keep the covenant and show faithful love towards those who love you and who observe your commandments: we have sinned, we have done wrong, we have acted wickedly, we have betrayed your commandments and rulings and turned away from them. We have not listened to your servants the prophets, who spoke in your name to our kings, our chief men, our ancestors and all people of the country. Saving justice, Lord, is yours; we have only the look of shame we wear today, we, the people of Judah, the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the whole of Israel, near and far away, in every country to which you have dispersed us because of the treachery we have committed against you. To us, our kings, our chief men and our ancestors, belongs the look of shame, O Yahweh, since we have sinned against you. And it is for the Lord our God to have mercy and to pardon, since we have betrayed him, and have not listened to the voice of Yahweh our God nor followed the laws he has given us through his servants the prophets.
Luke 6: 36-38
'Be compassionate just as your Father is compassionate. Do not judge, and you will not be judged; do not condemn, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven. Give, and there will be gifts for you: a full measure, pressed down, shaken together, and overflowing, will be poured into your lap; because the standard you use will be the standard used for you.'
Tuesday
Isaiah 1: 10, 16-20
Hear what Yahweh says,
you rulers of Sodom;
listen to what our God teaches,
you people of Gomorrah.wash, make yourselves clean.
Take your wrong-doing out of my sight.
Cease doing evil. Learn to do good,
search for justice, discipline the violent,
be just to the orphan, plead for the widow.'Come, let us talk this over,' says Yahweh.
'Though your sins are like scarlet,
they shall be white as snow;
though they are red as crimson,
they shall be like wool.
If you are willing to obey,
you shall eat the good things of the earth.
But if you refuse and rebel,
the sword shall eat you instead —
for Yahweh's mouth has spoken.'
R. We can either choose to go to
God ever closer by doing God's will —
or we can rebel against what
God wants us to do and therefore
go further and further away
from God.
Learning to not be focused on
ourselves is important. Going
out to others. Not wanting to
be in competition with others
especially those over us, just
authority, that we are to obey.
When one goes to work, at the bank,
at a food store, they have the
boss over them and they have to
obey the one in charge.
Learning about obedience,
and structure is important to
life and to spiritual growth.
The First Commandment, commands
we put God first, the Commandments
are rules God gave us to obey, to
have relationship with God we
are to obey the first three
Commandments. ie. God tells us
to keep holy the Sabbath Day. We
can rebel against that all day
Sunday if we want — Going to
church on Sunday can be a time
to give great love and praise to
God, who we love and we can
even rebel and be opposed to this
action in church — giving very
bad example to others besides
disobeying God's commandment
with our anger and rebellion
in Church.
God commands children
obey their father and mother —
teaching them about structure
from the beginning.
A boy of 20 who has a vocation
to the priesthood, however, is
not bound to obey the rules
of his parents when they oppose
his vocation. Children are to obey
parents until they reach a certain
age and when they are adults
and on their own they are
not under their parents' authority.
We are to do good and avoid
evil. We are to do God's will
and do it in love.
Matthew 22: 36-40
'Master, which is the greatest commandment of the Law?' Jesus said to him, 'You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second resembles it: You must love your neighbour as yourself. On these two commandments hang the whole Law, and the Prophets too.'
The Ten Commandments
1. I, the Lord, am your God. You shall not have other gods besides me.
2. You shall not take the name of the Lord, your God, in vain.
3. Remember to keep holy the Sabbath day.
4. Honor your father and your mother.
5. You shall not kill.
6. You shall not commit adultery.
7. You shall not steal.
8. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
9. You shall not covet your neighbor's wife.
10. You shall not covet anything that belongs to your neighbor.
R. These commandments were given
to men by God to regulate
their actions.
God gave us these commandments to
regulate our actions in relationship
to Him and others and ourselves.
The three loves. We are to love God,
our neighbor and ourselves.
Parents or guardians are guides to teach
children about what is right,
but many parents bring children
into their own imperfect lives
and the children suffer because
parents focus on their own
rights and hurt children when
they should be teaching them
through love and example how
to live.
A man or woman who is controlling and
demanding everyone bow to him
is teaching this to children of their
own sex.
A person is taught as children
to get along and solve problems
and work in love, a person is
taught how marriage is to work
at an early age —
If a parent runs a ship like
the captain is to wear a crown
and everybody fall in line, a
man or woman at 50 can
still be dealing with these
rules taught to him or her as
a child —
Where parents are to teach
little children love, not
competition and sharing and
working together.
Two little girls can be at odds
or can be disciplined to love and
share and help each other and
obey the parents who love them;
they should be taught at an
early age about God —
The relationship parents have
with God is to be unity with
husband and wife and children,
praying as a family —
praying the family rosary —
going to Church as a family —
Where God in relationship
with the family is brought
in every day to bring them together —
Praying every day together, in unity
for their needs,
the individual is taught what is
right and to tell others they are
sorry when they were wrong and
to tell God they were sorry when
they were not doing what was
right.
In the 12 steps of Alcoholics
Anonymous
THE TWELVE STEPS OF AA
Here are the steps we took, which are suggested as a program of recovery:
1. We admitted we were powerless over alcohol,
that our lives had become unmanageable.
2. Came to believe that a Power greater than
ourselves could restore us to sanity.
3. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives
over to the care of God as we understood Him.
4. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
5. Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human
being the exact nature of our wrongs.
6. Were entirely ready to have God remove all
these defects of character.
7. Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings.
8. Made a list of all persons we had harmed,
and became willing to make amends to them all.
9. Made direct amends to such people wherever possible,
except when to do so would injure them or others.
10. Continued to take personal inventory and when we
were wrong promptly admitted it.
11. Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our
conscious contact with God as we understood Him,
praying only for knowledge of His will for us and
the power to carry that out.
12. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps,
we tried to carry this message to alcoholics,
and to practice these principles in all our affairs.
R. when a person has wronged others,
they promptly admit it — they
are reconciled as much as they
can be in relationships —
They do not have a lifetime of
stuffed anger toward their brothers
for problems between them and
others that were never reconciled.
The 4th step tells the people
working the 12 steps to make
a fearless inventory — to go
back, to admit the people they
have hurt to clear the air, unless
it would cause damage all these
years later —
The point is the man doesn't
have a lifetime of arguments,
disagreements, he had with
others that were not reconciled —
The person working the 12
steps wants the truth in his
heart —
he wants to be forgiven and
forgive others —
We cannot always go back and
do that for it may hurt others
or they don't want peace
or to be reconciled —
Some may have injured us to
cause a problem so they can
get power and control —
Our purpose is to pray for those
who persecute us, to do all we
need to do, to do the will of God —
the Church is to be run on
men of love and truth —
We see Jesus threw the money-
changers out of the temple —
We are looking at our heart
and telling the truth about our
sins toward God and others —
At the beginning of every Mass
we have the penitential act —
We tell God we are sorry for our
sins — we want our relationships
to be reconciled to God and
others and we want to live
in truth about ourselves —
Fr. Carter tells us about the virtue
of humility
Excerpt from Response in Christ by Fr. Edward J. Carter, S.J.
Other Christian Virtues
If humility is truth, and therefore allows for the proper recognition of my gifts, it also necessitates my admitting to the evil within me. This is also part of the truth. This truth also must be acted upon; for Christian humility not only allows me to admit that there is evil in me, but it also tells me that as a creature of God I should conform myself to His will and strive to eradicate and control the evil as far as this is possible. In summary, humility allows the Christian to evaluate properly both the good and evil in himself.
R. God gives us commandments
not to tie us down, but as
directions which light the way to
Him — God wants us to be happy —
God wants us to be reconciled
and have unity —
Our life is having relationships
with God and others and loving
ourselves as the beautiful
creation of our Heavenly Father.
We need to have laws that govern
us — Man cannot say I can do what
I want and try to run a place
isolated according to his reality,
people were meant to be under God,
live by rules that govern under
God and work together in unity —
saying they are sorry when they
have offended God and others
and being reconciled in relationships.
Man can be a slave to satan,
a slave to his passions, a
slave to his whims without
laws and direction. The devil
works in this to tear apart
and bring down the house when
someone disconnected with authority
works in secret and doing his
own thing.
God wants us happy — God
gives us our free will. We can
reject God when He calls us
and rebel against Him, but
God gives us first —
We are not independent of
God who created us and keeps
us in existence.
God is the Divine Governor
and we can rebel against Him
by using our free will to try
to do our will opposed to God's will
and work against His Plan.
This is the road to anger and
misery.
God gives us the gift of baptism —
It is a sharing in His life. We are
to act according to His Plan —
be instruments for God in
the world —
Our life in God is to bear
fruit for the building of His
Kingdom. God feeds this life
with Himself in giving us
Holy Communion. He gives
us the sacrament of penance,
to forgive our sins —
Our life in Him is to grown. We are
to live virtuously. The more we
live virtuously, the more we
will be happy in this world.
In faith we believe in God —
We reach for the vision of God —
We put this vision first in
our lives. Our goal is God and
what God wants of us in
our life here —
We believe in the vision of
God — We seek it — we pray
to God to increase this vision
in us —
We know more the mystery
of God — We seek to know
God in His Divine Mysteries —
This gift of greater faith
comes from God.
We seek the truth about God's
Plan and we believe and
live for that Plan — we
want God's Plan — we seek
this truth and our part in
it in our lives.
Excerpt from Response to God's Love by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.
... In reference to Christianity, God himself is the ultimate mystery. Radically, God is completely other and transcendent, hidden from man in his inner life, unless he chooses to reveal himself. Let us briefly look at this inner life of God.
The Father, in a perfect act of self-expression, in a perfect act of knowing, generates his son. The Son, the Word, is, then, the immanent expression of God's fullness, the reflection of the Father. Likewise, from all eternity, the Father and the Son bring forth the Holy Spirit in a perfect act of loving.
At the destined moment in human history, God's self-expression, the Word, immersed himself into man's world. God's inner self-expression now had also become God's outer self-expression. Consequently, the mystery of God becomes the mystery of Christ. In Christ, God tells us about himself, about his inner life, about his plan of creation and redemption. He tells us how Father, Son, and Holy Spirit desire to dwell within us in the most intimate fashion, how they wish to share with us their own life through grace. All this he has accomplished and does accomplish through Christ.
Hebrews 11:1-40
The exemplary faith of our ancestors
Only faith can guarantee the blessings that we hope for, or prove the existence of realities that are unseen. It is for their faith that our anestors are acknowledged.
It is by faith that we understand that the ages were created by a word from God, so that from the invisible the visible world came to be.
It was because of his faith that Abel offered God a better sacrifice than Cain, and for that he was acknowledged as upright when God himself made acknowledgement of his offerings. Though he is dead, he still speaks by faith.
It was because of his faith that Enoch was taken up and did not experience death: he was no more, because God took him; because before his assumption he was acknowledged to have pleased God. Now it is impossible to please God without faith, since anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and rewards those who seek him.
It was through his faith that Noah, when he had been warned by God of something that had never been seen before, took care to build an ark to save his family. His faith was a judgement on the world, and he was able to claim the uprightness which comes from faith.
It was by faith that Abraham obeyed the call to set out for a country that was the inheritance given to him and his descendants, and that he set out without knowing where he was going. By faith he sojourned in the Promised Land as though it were not his, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise. He looked forward to the well-founded city, designed and built by God.
It was equally by faith that Sarah, in spite of being past the age, was made able to conceive, because she believed that he who had made the promise was faithful to it.
Because of this, there came from one man, and one who already had the mark of death on him, descendants as numerous as the stars of heaven and the grains of sand on the seashore which cannot be counted.
All these died in faith, before receiving any of the things that had been promised, but they saw them in the far distance and welcomed them, recognising that they were only strangers and nomads on earth. People who use such terms about themselves make it quite plain that they are in search of a homeland. If they had meant the country they came from, they would have had the opportunity to return to it; but in fact they were longing for a better homeland, their heavenly homeland. That is why God is not ashamed to be called their God, since he has founded the city for them.
It was by faith that Abraham, when put to the test, offered up Isaac. He offered to sacrifice his only son even though he had yet to receive what had been prcomised, and he had been told: Isaac is the one through whom your name will be carried on. He was confident that God had the power even to raise the dead; and so, figuratively speaking, he was given back Isaac from the dead.
It was by faith that this same Isaac gave his blessing to Jacob and Esau for the still distant future. By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of Joseph's sons, bowed in reverence, as he leant on his staff. It was by faith that, when he was about to die, Joseph mentioned the Exodus of the Israelites and gave instructions about his own remains.
It was by faith that Moses, when he was born, was kept hidden by his parents for three months; because they saw that he was a fine child; they were not afraid of the royal edict. It was by faith that, when he was grown up, Moses refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh's daughter and chose to be ill-treated in company with God's people rather than to enjoy the transitory pleasures of sin. He considered that the humiliations offered to the Anointed were something more precious than all the treasures of Egypt, because he had his eyes fixed on the reward. It was by faith that he left Egypt without fear of the king's anger; he held to his purpose like someone who could see the Invisible. It was by faith that he kept the Passover and sprinkled the blood to prevent the Destroyer from touching any of their first-born sons. It was by faith they crossed the Red Sea as easily as dry land, while the Egyptians, trying to do the same, were drowned.
It was through faith that the walls of Jericho fell down when the people had marched round them for seven days. It was by faith that Rahab the prostitute welcomed the spies and so was not killed with the unbelievers.
What more shall I say? There is not time for me to give an account of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, or of David, Samuel and the prophets. These were men who through faith conquered kingdoms, did what was upright and earned the promises. They could keep a lion's mouth shut, put out blazing fires and emerge unscathed from battle. They were weak people who were given strength to be brave in war and drive back foreign invaders. Some returned to their wives from the dead by resurrection; and others submitted to torture, refusing release so that they would rise again to a better life. Some had to bear being pilloried and flogged, or even chained up in prison. They were stoned, or sawn in half, or killed by the sword; they were homeless, and wore only the skins of sheep and goats; they were in want and hardship, and maltreated. They were too good for the world and they wandered in deserts and mountains and in caves and ravines. These all won acknowledgment through their faith, but they did not receive what was promised, since God had made provision for us to have something better, and they were not to reach perfection except with us.
R. We see the wide picture of
our God — we embrace this
vision — We are one with the
Trinity that we know lives
in our graced baptized soul —
We meditate on this Mystery
of the Trinity,
God's life in us, the Incarnation
and the awesomeness that
the Son of God took flesh in the
womb of the Virgin Mary.
It is in the offering of ourselves
united to Jesus in the Mass, that
we give to God what He wants
in giving us the Holy Sacrifice
of the Mass.
The Mass is the Sacrifice of
Calvary, sacramentally made
present. In humbling ourselves,
to give ourselves wholly in the
Mass, we render to God ourselves
to be used for a purpose of
Adoration, Thanksgiving,
Reparation and Petition.
Jesus: I am one with you now.
When you come to Mass, say
the Prayer before Mass —
unite in Mass and all day

Guiding Light homily series - Reflect on the Word - Cycle B The Word leaves an impression on our souls. In my thoughts and reflections are born a more tangible understanding of these eternal concepts presented in the Gospels and the readings. Anyone can read a sentence, but not anyone can absorb it's true meaning. Truth, in this day and age, is almost a matter of opinion or individual entitlement. We believe that Christ's truth is our Roman Catholic Church. We, as priests, champion it's teachings; we are ambassadors for the Pope and Christ to those faces looking at us. We are the light by which our congregation reads to reflect upon real truth and we do it hand in hand. $15 |

Guiding Light homily series - Steadfast to the Son - Cycle A The sunflower is a great example of how we should be steadfastly guided by light. What a powerful thought that this exceptional plant is not stuck in one pose day in and day out, yet adaptable and magnetized to the sun. We feel the same about our Son. Our heads turns to face Christ as each day presents its challenges to find light. We join together like plants in a field and soak up the Son through the pulpit. We are a warm circle of strength using the wind of our breath to carry our priests' words, Christ's words, to new rich soil. $15 | ||

Guiding Light - Feed My Soul - Cycle C In a world rapidly advancing and encouraging personal gain, we are faced with modern problems. There is a challenge to find time in our busy schedules for Sunday Mass or a family meal. We are able to research, shop, bank and even work without hearing one human voice. It is no wonder that we may often feel disconnected and famished at our week's end. In Fr. Joe's third book of homilies from Cycle C, we are reminded of the charity that Christ intended us to show each other. We have a calling to turn the other cheek and be the Good Samaritan to others. We are rewarded with the Father's kingdom and love when we are not worthy. We are not left alone or hungry. $15 |
Guiding Light - Focusing on the Word - Cycle B At times we may feel that our path to Christ is a bit "out of focus". Like the disciples in the Book of Mark, this ordinary life clouds our vision of Christ's Divinity. We may doubt the practicality or possibility of applying His teachings and example to our modern life. Cycle B's homilies are a "guiding light" to help us realize Jesus' Messianic greatness and His promise of better things to come. $15 |
