Standing to Begin Mass

After you make your preparation for Mass - whether kneeling or sitting in the pew - the bell rings, and you stand forMass to begin. What does this gesture of standing mean? It means that we are to ready respond to God "right away,always, and with joy." Indeed, standing was the normal position for Jewish prayer and this custom passed to Christianity.Standing is a sign of respect and honor, so we stand as the celebrant who represents Christ enters and leaves the assembly.This posture, from the earliest days of the Church, has been understood as the stance of those who are risen with Christand seek the things that are above. When we stand for prayer we assume our full stature before God, not in pride, but inhumble gratitude for the marvelous thing God has done in creating and redeeming each one of us. By Baptism we havebeen given a share in the life of God, and the posture of standing is an acknowledgment of this wonderful gift. We standfor the Gospel, the pinnacle of revelation, the words and deeds of the Lord, and the bishops of the United States havechosen standing as the posture to be observed in this country for the reception of Communion, the sacrament which unitesus in the most profound way possible with Christ who, now gloriously risen from the dead, is the cause of our salvation.When you stand at Mass, don't slouch over, don't fidget. Stand up straight and be still. "Be still and know that I amGod", as the Psalm says.

Fr. Maria Joseph Kodiganti
