The Pre-eminence of Love - St. Edward Catholic Church
February 23 , 2014 For us, Christ is everything. We begin in each day in his presence. We are his people, from many walks of life, and from many nations and languages. We adore the Lord, address him with the psalms of our ancestors and enter the sacred Liturgy, the source and summit in our life in Christ. Through our Catechetical programs we pass on the faith both to adults and children, training in holiness which calls us to a Holy life distinguished above all in the art of prayer. Rising from prayer we minister to the needs of those who ask our help, with food and other assistance. We are the people of St. Edward Catholic Church in Newark, California. Christ is everything. If you have a wound to heal, he is the doctor; if you are in need of help, he is strength; if you fear death, he is life; if you desire Heaven, he is the way; if you are in the darkness, he is light. Blessed are they who hope in him! Seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time The Pre-eminence of Love From a sermon by Blessed Isaac of Stella, abbot Why, my brethren, are we so little concerned with finding opportunities to advance each other’s salvation, responding to greater need with greater help and bearing each other’s burdens? This is what St Paul advised: Bear one another’s burdens and so fulfil the law of Christ – or, again, forbearing each other in love. For that is most definitely the law of Christ. When I notice something wrong in my brother that cannot be corrected – either because it is inevitable or because it comes from some weakness of his in body or character – why do I not bear it patiently and offer my willing sympathy? As scripture says, their children will be carried on their shoulders and comforted on their laps. Could it be because there is a lack in me, a lack of that which bears all things and is patient enough to take up the burden, a lack of the will to love? This is what the law of Christ is like, of Christ who bore our grief in his passion and carried our sorrows in his compassion for us, loving those whom he carried and carrying those whom he loved. On the other hand, whoever turns on his brother in the brother’s time of need, who exploits his weakness, whatever that weakness may be – without doubt he has subjected himself to the law of Satan and is carrying it out. Let us have compassion for each other and love the brotherhood we share, bear each other’s weaknesses and fight against each other’s vices. Whatever religious practice or observance it leads to, any teaching or discipline that fosters a stronger love of God and, through God, of our neighbors, is most acceptable to God for that reason. This love is the reason why things should be or not be, why they should remain the same or be changed.

Perfeição! É o que nos pede Jesus na liturgia deste domingo. Para começarmos a refletir sobre o assunto, podemos fazer os seguintes questionamentos: será que meus pais esperavam que eu fosse um filho perfeito? Será que eles são ou eram perfeitos? Eu espero ou exijo que meus filhos, meu cônjuge, meus amigos e as pessoas com quem eu convivo sejam perfeitas? E eu? Sou perfeito? Claro que não! Ninguém é perfeito. Mas, afinal, se constatamos que nós nem os outros são perfeitos, o que significa essa ordem de Deus para sermos perfeitos? Na verdade, a liturgia de hoje não fala da perfeição humana, ou seja, aquela expectativa irrealista de uma pessoa ser impecável, sem erros, com os próprios esforços, o chamado pecado do perfeccionismo. No Evangelho, Jesus é claro: “Sede perfeitos, como vosso Pai celeste é perfeito”. Devemos ser perfeitos como Deus. Mas será mesmo que Jesus quis dizer que nós podemos realmente atingir a perfeição de Deus? Vamos ver o que diz o contexto e descobrir. Na primeira leitura de hoje, do livro do Levítico: “Sede santos, porque eu, o Senhor vosso Deus, sou santo”. Sim, devemos e podemos ser santos. Esta perfeição, esta santidade, porém, se refere à consciência que devemos ter de que Deus nos considera perfeitos, justos, santos em Jesus Cristo e, por isso, vamos progredindo na nossa caminhada espiritual. “Perfeição” no contexto da liturgia de hoje é a busca constante da maturidade espiritual, de pensar como Jesus pensava, de amar como ele amava, observando e imitando as suas atitudes. Sermos perfeitos como Deus seria uma coisa impossível. Mas, o próprio Deus tornou essa realidade possível. Jesus torna essa realidade possível quando ele se dignou assumir a nossa humanidade para que nós pudéssemos alcançar a sua divindade. Jesus, o Cordeiro de Deus sem mancha, sem defeito algum, tira o pecado do mundo e através do Batismo, nos faz participantes da sua mesma vida divina. Há sim um esforço da nossa parte que é justamente cooperar com Deus para amadurecermos nele. Ser perfeito, ser santo, é ser maduro espiritualmente, é crescer espiritualmente e temos uma parte neste processo, que é justamente deixar Deus agir em nós através de Jesus Cristo, fazendo o que ele fez. Seja qual for a definição, o livro do Levítico deixa claro Missa Domingo VII Do Tempo Comum que para sermos santos como Deus é santo, há que amar o próximo. Assim, já existia o comando dado por Deus de que devemos amar o nosso próximo como a nós mesmos. Este não é um mandamento novo dado por Jesus. Isto significava ser santo. Ser santo no original hebraico significa “separado, diferente, único”. Cada um devia amar, respeitar e ajudar ao próximo. No entanto, a palavra “próximo”, no contexto hebraico é muito limitada. “Próximo” na época em questão dizia respeito aos familiares ou àqueles da mesma tribo. O povo hebreu era convidado a cuidar e levar o bem-estar a seu próximo. Na leitura do Evangelho de hoje, Jesus traz uma novidade. Ele amplia esse significado. Depois de ter recordado os valores que devem guiar o nosso comportamento para com o próximo, de não se encolerizar, não desejar a mulher do próximo, preservar a própria união conjugal e dizer sempre a verdade, ele apresenta ainda duas últimas antíteses, onde apresenta critérios em base aos quais devemos responder ao mal que sofremos: quando somos caluniados, ofendidos, maltratados, traídos, feridos; como devemos nos comportar para com os nossos “inimigos”! Jesus explica que Deus não criou o mundo apenas para os judeus, mas o sol nasce para todos – até mesmo para as pessoas más. Assim, dando vários exemplos de coisas que aconteciam no cotidiano das pessoas, ele diz que precisamos amar sempre, não apenas os nossos parentes e companheiros próximos, mas todo o mundo, e tratar a todos como queremos ser tratados. Se amamos apenas aqueles que nos amam, isto não é grande coisa, pelo contrário, não há nenhuma novidade aqui. – Pe Carlos Henrique Nascimento MINISTERIOS PARA A MISSA DOMINGO CELEBRANTE: Pe Antonio Reis HOSPITALIDADE: Maria Simas e Antonio Borba MESTRE DE CERIMONIAS: Daniel Silva MUSICA: Maria Clementina, Jose Carreiro, e João Silveira CANTICOS: Antonio Sousa, Isabel Reis, Rita Fonte, Magarida Filipe, Lucia Valdão, Filomena Vieira, Lucia Martins, e João Silveira LEITORES: 1a. leitura: Conceição Silva Salmo: Conceição Silva 2a.
