December 27, 2015 The Holy Family of
Jesus, Mary and Joseph
...Announcements... Solemnity of the Holy Family
Saint John Paul II wrote about today’s Gospel story in his encyclical on the Rosary, Rosarium Virginis (paragraph #20). This scripture, he pointed out, reveals that Jesus was wholly dedicated to his Father’s affairs. And it shows “the radical nature of the Gospel, in which even the closest of human relationships are challenged by the absolute de-mands of the Kingdom.” Which relationships? Family re-lationships!
Today, we are like Mary and Joseph in their moment of failing to understand the words of Jesus. His teachings challenge us to accept a more difficult life, a life of doing good to our enemies, taking a stand against injustices, standing up for Christian values, getting persecuted for it, turning the cheek and going the extra mile, a life of coura-geously adhering to the ways of God.
Our preference, when it’s inconvenient or unpleasant to be so holy, is to rationalize and make excuses for any be-havior that the world says is good and right but which con-tradicts the Church’s scripture-based teachings. However, if we are sincere about following Christ, we are willing to do what is difficult. And it’s usually in the doing that we begin to understand the benefits of becoming more like Christ.
Without this understanding, however, we have to trust that the words of Jesus are truth. Like Mary and Joseph, we need to ponder in our hearts what we do not understand and at the same time move forward in holy living. Then we dis-cover the joy that comes from a life that’s lived wholly in Christ.
On this Feast of the Holy Family, let us pray that Mary and Joseph will help us hear Jesus whenever our troubles or temptations get so distracting that we lose sight of him. Let us learn to recognize that Jesus is always present with us in his Holy Spirit, helping us, guiding us, and mercifully lov-ing us, especially in the challenges we face.
A Prayer to Nurture a Forgiving Family
Lord, give us a home filled with love,
A family that is quick to forgive and seek forgiveness,
A family that prays and laughs and heals together,
A family that values others more than self,
Reconciliation more than pride,
And God’s grace more than anything else.
Amen.
