The Humility of God
The Resurrection appearance accounts in the Gospels are fascinating, especially in their capturing the details of the humility of God as he meets his disciples right in their fears, disbeliefs, and incomprehension. Imagine (though this is beyond the human mind) that you are the Lord. You have just defeated death by rising from the dead. Were we to invent a God, now is when we would record something more flashy and dramatic. Perhaps the Sanhedrin falling en masse on their knees to declare Jesus as the Messiah. Or Caesar proclaiming Christ the new Emperor. Certainly we would have to write in a few showy miracles as he convinces with greater signs and wonders that he is truly risen from the dead.
But what does he do? He lets them touch him. Handle him. He asks if they have anything to eat. And they give God Incarnate and Resurrected some baked fish. And he eats it. He’s not into flash and dash. He wants no cowering subjects driven by fear. He wants our fellowship. Our friendship. Our trust. Our love. Thank him for his humility and magnanimity that we witness at every Mass.
Trust him enough to give him your little piece of baked fish and relish the Meal (the Eucharist, Himself) he desires to give you in return.

Groaning Inwardly
Sometimes it seems that many people are focused more on their comfort here in time than in the hereafter. It pays to remember that life is indeed short and eternity long. And the prospect of Heaven’s rewards can be forgotten against the threat of the pains of hell. But thinking of redemption, a redemption that will one day include our resurrected bodies, is no small consolation amid the groans (both inward and outward) that accompany life and aging. In fact, staying focused on following the Lord as he guides us closer to himself for all eternity, makes offering up all our aches and pains not only easier but can transform the offering into an occasion of joy.
Be joyful whether your groans can be heard or not!

This week the secular world celebrates Valentine’s Day with lots of romance, heart shaped boxes, and chocolate, among other things. It may help instead to recall that Saint Valentine was a martyr - a witness to Christ to the point of shedding his blood and dying for this belief in the Son of God.
It’s not that the world’s celebration of human love with greeting cards, flowers, and other tokens of affection is wrong. It speaks to the innate need everyone has to love and be loved. God, who is love, also desires this of us, but rightly ordered.
The small gift, the precious offering, a treasured exchange reminds the recipient of the other’s love even when the lover is absent. Even cloistered nuns practice this heartfelt exchange on a moment by moment basis. We have our formal prayers in chapel with our Lord exposed in the monstrance. But we cannot ignore him as we leave and go about our duties “in the pots and pans”. It takes but a glance at a crucifix, a statue, a relic, a holy card, an icon, a painting, a holy water font, and we can raise our hearts to him even without seeing him in the luna.
The idea of a little keepsake to bring the beloved to mind doesn't have its origin with greeting card companies or chocolatiers. It was God's idea first when he left us Himself, his very self, body blood soul and divinity, in the Blessed Sacrament. (cf: Matthew 28:20) #sisterreginacomicstrip
A Holy Family Mother's Day
Anna Jarvis might not have been able to grasp the full role of motherhood Mary was undertaking had the founder of Mother's Day been in Nazareth 2000 years ago, but she certainly could have picked up some clues if she observed Jesus and Joseph and their relationship to Mary. They would have honored her, treated her with respect, given her their love as a son and a husband in a measure unseen anywhere else in history. Jarvis would likely have been pleased.
On this Mother's Day, however Anna Jarvis intended it to be for singular families to honor their own particular mothers [that's why she insisted on "Mother's Day" rather than "Mothers' Day"], we honor and pray for all Mothers everywhere. We thank God for you and pray for all women taking on the role of mothers in a world that so desperately needs women with motherly hearts like Mary's ready to sacrifice and love.
