St. Edward Catholic Church September 22, 2013 Twenty-Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time Turn My Heart to your Decrees St Robert Bellarmine, 'On the Ascent of the Soul to God' Friday is the Feast of St. Vincent de Paul God bless our faithful volunteers. “Behold, now, how little is needed to become a saint! Nothing more than to acquire the habit of willing, on every occasion, what God wills.” St. Vincent de Paul O Lord, good and forgiving and abounding in steadfast love, who would not serve you with all his heart, when he has begun at least to taste the sweetness of your fatherly rule? What do you order your servants to do, Lord? ‘Take my yoke upon you,’ you say. What is your yoke?—’my yoke is easy,’ you say, ‘and my burden is light.’ Who would not willingly carry a yoke which does not press down but gives strength, and a burden which does not weigh heavily but refreshes? With justification, then, you also say, ‘and you will find rest for your souls’. What is this yoke of yours that does not tire but brings rest? It is that ‘great and first commandment: you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart’. For what is easier, better and more agreeable than to love goodness, beauty and love, all of which you are, O Lord my God? Do you not offer a reward to those who keep the commandments, which are more desirable than a heap of gold and sweeter than honey from the comb? So in every way you offer a very ample reward, as James the apostle says: ‘The Lord has (Continued on page 3) St. Edward Catholic Church Schedule for Holy Mass Horario de la Santa Misa 5:00 pm Saturday 5788 Thornton Ave. Newark, CA 94560 (510) 797-0241 En Español Clergy Rev.

It is a good greater than all we can think of or desire: Paul quotes these words from Isaiah: ‘No eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor has the heart of man conceived, what God has prepared for those who love him.’ There is much reward in keeping your commandments. That first and great commandment is not only profitable for the man who keeps it or for God who commands it: the other commandments of God also make perfect him who obeys them, improve him, instruct him and make him illustrious; in a word, they make him good and holy. If you understand this, realize that you have been created for the glory of God and for your own eternal salvation; this is your end, this is the object of your soul and the treasure of your heart. You will be blessed if you reach this goal, but miserable if you are cut off from it. Therefore consider that to be for your real good which brings you to your goal, and that to be really bad which cuts you off from this goal. Prosperity and adversity, riches and poverty, health and sickness, honor and ignominy, life and death should not be sought after for themselves by the wise man nor are they to be avoided for themselves; if they contribute to the glory of God and your eternal happiness, they are good and to be sought after; if they are obstacles to this, they are evil and to be avoided.

Mas como é possível ser elogiado um homem que se apropria indevidamente de bens alheios e faz amigos à custa do patrão? “Havia um homem rico que tinha um administrador, e este foi acusado...”: é assim que começa a parábola do Evangelho deste domingo, o relato de um administrador que, durante anos, cometia fraudes contra o seu patrão, até que não conseguiu mais. É uma história que se repete desde há muito tempo até hoje, semelhante a tantas histórias dos nossos dias que continuamente lemos nos cotidianos e escutamos nos telejornais: histórias de fraudes e furtos, arquitetadas com perfeição, por pessoas, talvez muito notáveis, que roubam grandes quantias de dinheiro, prejudicando grandes e pequenos. Não é uma novidade, e digamos logo, nem mesmo é raro: tá cada vez mais comum ouvir e ver casos assim; mas sempre chega o momento da verdade, quando descobertas as fraudes, começa a caça ao ladrão, que obviamente, nunca está sozinho e faz de tudo pra escapar. Desonestidade, engano, fraude: é a lógica do “mundo”, a lógica dos espertalhões que não têm escrúpulos em enriquecer às custas dos principalmente mais pobres; contra essa lógica, só aparentemente vencedora, a liturgia repropõe as palavras duras do profeta Amós, o “pastor, cultivador de sicômoros” chamado por Deus a admoestar todos, pertencentes às altas classes da cidade da Samaria que exploravam os pobres e oprimiam os fracos. A parábola fala precisamente de um homem rico que soube que seu empregado estava lhe roubando, e, por isso, ele exige uma prestação de contas antes de demitir tal empregado; este, por sua vez, com muita esperteza, raciocina: ‘vou ser demitido, não tenho como me defender. Como vou me sustentar? Não posso encarar um trabalho braçal e tenho vergonha de pedir esmolas. Já sei o que vou fazer. Vou diminuir as dívidas que as pessoas têm com meu patrão; assim, elas ficam me devendo este favor e por isso, vão me ajudar com algo enquanto eu estiver desempregado’. Muito espertinho o empregado! Na época, a cobrança de juros era proibida pela Lei, assim, para obter o máximo dos outros, os vendedores diminuíam medidas para ganhar mais, aumentavam pesos quando vendiam, adulteravam balanças, compravam os pobres com um par de sandálias (ou hoje com uma prótese dentária ou um exame de vista), nada diferente do que existe por aí em todos os âmbitos da sociedade. Então, aquele empregado resolve reduzir as contas devidas ao seu valor real, perdendo os juros para o patrão e fazendo amigos para si mesmo. Usou o presente para providenciar o futuro. Jesus com esta parábola constata: “realmente, os filhos 'deste mundo' são mais espertos em seus negócios do que os filhos da luz”. Somo filhos da luz, seguimos a luz do mundo que é Jesus; mas, muitas vezes, como cristãos, nos faltam a prontidão e o zelo daquele administrador da parábola em vez de ficarmos nos lamentando e reclamando. Por isso, Jesus com base nessa verdade, dá três orientações com relação ao uso do dinheiro. Primeiramente, que devemos usar o dinheiro em favor do nosso próximo. Os bens que Deus confia a nossa administração não devem ser gastos de maneira egoística em vista de uma “boa vida”, mas devem ser usados conforme à vontade de Deus. Ou seja, sendo uma bênção para o outro. Jesus fala de dinheiro, mas aí devemos incluir tudo o que é bem terreno: as nossas capacidades, talentos, educação recebida etc. Tudo deve ser administrado fielmente e não pode ser esbanjado para engrandecer a nós mesmos e para o bem da nossa pessoa. A maneira como nos relacionarmos com o dinheiro contará muito para o nosso bem espiritual.

INTENCAO DA MISSA: Conceição Silveira Sousa † ANUNCIOS: Isabel Reis BOLETIM: Paul Moreira A letter to Proba by St Augustine Let us exercise our desire in prayer Why in our fear of not praying as we should, do we turn to so many things, to find what we should pray for? Why do we not say instead, in the words of the psalm: I have asked one thing from the Lord, this is what I will seek: to dwell in the Lord’s house all the days of my life, to see the graciousness of the Lord, and to visit his temple? There, the days do not come and go in succession, and the beginning of one day does not mean the end of another; all days are one, simultaneously and without end, and the life lived out in these days has itself no end. So that we might obtain this life of happiness, he who is true life itself taught us to pray, not in many words as though speaking longer could gain us a hearing. After all, we pray to one who, as the Lord himself tells us, knows what we need before we ask for it. Why he should ask us to pray, when he knows what we need before we ask him, may perplex us if we do not realise that our Lord and God does not want to know what we want (for he cannot fail to know it), but wants us rather to exercise our desire through our prayers, so that we may be able to receive what he is preparing to give us. His gift is very great indeed, but our capacity is too small and limited to receive it. That is why we are told: Enlarge your desires, do not bear the yoke with unbelievers. The deeper our faith, the stronger our hope, the greater our desire, the larger will be our capacity to receive that gift, which is very great indeed. No eye has seen it; it has no color. No ear has heard it; it has no sound. It has not entered man’s heart; man’s heart must enter into it. I n this faith, hope and love we pray always with unwearied desire. However, at set times and seasons we also pray to God in words, so that by these signs we may instruct ourselves and mark the progress we have made in our desire, and spur ourselves on to deepen it. The more fervent the desire, the more worthy will be its fruit. When the Apostle tells us: Pray without ceasing, he means this: Desire unceasingly that life of happiness which is nothing if not eternal, and ask it of him who alone is able to give it.
