NOVEMBER 4, 2018 THIRTY—FIRST SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
“A PARISH EXISTS TO LEAD ITS PEOPLE TO A DEEP INTIMACY WITH THE BLESSED TRINITY.” ST. JOHN PAUL II
GOSPEL MEDITATION - ENCOURAGE
DEEPER UNDERSTANDING OF SCRIPTURE
NOVEMBER 4, 2018: 31ST SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
"You are not far from the kingdom of God." What does it
mean to be close to God's kingdom? In today's Gospel, Jesus
is in a dialogue with teachers of the law. They know well the
Law of Moses, with its complex codes, expectations, and
punishments. What will Jesus say?
"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with
all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your
strength ... You shall love your neighbor as yourself." Jesus
effortlessly distills all the books of law into two commands.
The simplicity of the Gospel message doesn't mean it's easy
to follow. Far from it! The simplicity of the Gospel indicates
its totality. Anything that requires the passions of our heart,
the choice of our soul, the reason in our mind, or the strength
of our body - all of this ought to be animated by love. As you
can imagine, that means pretty much everything! The love of
God and love of neighbor is meant to flow into our entire
lives.
The Gospel can appear complicated because life is complicat-
ed. Not every outcast is easy to love. We lack the knowledge
or compassion to heal everyone who suffers. Personal sacri-
fice is not always noticed or valued. In the face of the un-
known, fear can be easier than faith. Life's circumstances can
seem like obstacles to God's love, not opportunities. And yet
Jesus' command still stands. As you reflect this week, exam-
ine those areas where it's easy to love. Thank God for them!
But take some time to consider the people and circumstances
that challenge you. Ask God to show you what it means to
love there. How is He inviting you to enlarge your heart,
strengthen your soul, open your mind, and persevere in your
strength? How is He inviting you to love?
Responsorial Psalm:
Lord, this is the people
that longs to see your face. (Ps. 24)

Stewardship Moment:
“Whoever exalts himself will be humbled;
but whoever humbles himself will be exalted.” - MATTHEW 23:12.
Jesus gave His life to serve, not to be served. Putting other’s
needs before our own needs is a sign of becoming a mature
disciple, of following Jesus’ example. Humility is really a sign
of a strength. By putting other’s needs first we declare to the
world that we are putting our complete trust in God. When
we align our thoughts and actions with God’s plan for us, the
result is Joy and Peace.
