Message from the Padre

Our Gospel this weekend is about the BEATITUDES. The Beati-

tudes are a kind of road map for anyone who seeks to attain happiness in the

Kingdom of God. Yes, Jesus says blessed are those who suffer for the King-

dom of God. This suffering is not about poverty, hunger or weeping. This

suffering is about accepting the cross from the “hatred, insult, ridicule and de-

nouncement of the Son of Man.” These are the “Woes” of life that Jesus is

warning us about, because often times we dare ourselves to follow the woes of

life, a path of passing and fleeting happiness, instead of a path of

“Blessedness” and secured happiness with God.

My dear friends, the message of the Beatitudes is not a pretense of empty

promises. We have to admit that it is not easy to live up to these Beatitudes. We are all invited to do our best

to use them as an example, because they are a great spiritual insight and encouragement that help us to live our

lives in holiness. Yes, the Beatitudes of Blessedness portray a life directed towards holiness. They are spiri-

tual insight, encouragement and warning that point to the most concrete spiritual realities of life.

This week, let us reflect on the Beatitudes and pray for the grace of God to enlighten our minds to em-

brace the “Blessedness” of the Beatitudes and avoid the “Woes” of life. Through the guidance of the Holy

Spirit, in the Most Holy Name of Jesus, may we attain true happiness here on earth and enjoy the lasting joy

prepared for us in the Kingdom of Heaven.

Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time Jeremiah 17: 5-8

1 Corinthians 15: 12, 16-20, Luke 6: 17, 20-26

It’s time to choose sides. The selections from Jeremiah,

Psalms, and Luke each describe the favorable consequences

for the opposite group. Jeremiah distinguishes between those

who place their trust in God and those who place their trust in

others. In Luke’s Gospel, Jesus reassures those who are suf-

fering while warning those who are prospering. It is sobering.

Let Saint Paul’s proclamation of Christ’s resurrection be of

comfort to all of us.

Burlington County Diocesan

Respect Life Committee

The New Jersey Assembly will vote on February 25th on

Bill A1504 which would legalize doctor assisted suicide.

The Senate Bill S1072 is in the committee review phase. Any form of suicide is against both natural law and God’s

Commandments. The Executive Director of the NJ Catholic

Conference feels voicing one’s opinion to their legislators is

more effective than people realize. Time is running short so

please contact your legislators as soon as possible before the

this bill becomes a law.

Prayer for Respect of Life

Heavenly Father, the beauty and dignity of human life was the

crowning of your creation. You further ennobled that life when

your Son became one with us in his incarnation. Help us to

realize the sacredness of human life and to respect it from the

moment of conception until the last moment at death. Give us

courage to speak with truth and love and with conviction in

defense of life. Help us to extend the gentle hand of mercy and

forgiveness to those who do not reverence your gift of life. To

all, grant pardon for the times we have failed to be grateful for

your precious gift of life or to respect it in others. We ask this

in Jesus’ name. Amen.
