JUNE 2, 2019 2 SAINT BERNARD
A man named Stephen is being tormented, taunted, and persecuted for his belief in Jesus. He doesn’t give in to the demands of his persecutors, though. Instead, he lifts his eyes to heaven. What he sees is exactly what Jesus prays for in the Gospel: a vision of the unity of Father and Son and what will one day be his own inheritance. Stephen is unafraid of what will happen to him, and so he continues to profess his faith even to the point of being stoned to death by those who don’t understand. Jesus’ prayer is answered in the witness of St. Stephen, the first martyr of the church. He is unified to Jesus, who is unified to the Father. In his death, he emulates Christ’s own sacrifice. With his faith, Stephen is a testament to the unending love that all Christians are called to live in and show. In a very real way, today’s readings are meant to give us encouragement in our own fights and struggles to live the faith. Jesus prayed for us because he knew our journey of faith wouldn’t be easy. We are told the story St. Stephen to encourage us in what we know is sometimes going to be a difficult and challenging path. The second Reading from the book of Revelations even reminds us of the unending power of Jesus, who is to come. These readings are no small matter on this second to last Sunday of Easter, for they are meant to fortify us as we wrap up this time of great celebration and return to the ordinary days of the liturgical year, when we often feel the drag, attack, and occasional sufferings in our faith. Jesus wants us to be perfect in him, united in love with him. He asked for this, and it will be delivered to us. He wants us unified, in him, as one church. This is our mission, to be unified by way of his unending, unfailing love.
