GOSPEL MEDITATION - ENCOURAGE DEEPER UNDERSTANDING OF SCRIPTURE
March 14, 2021
4th Sunday of Lent
Is there something to Lent that goes beyond our own spiritual house cleaning and spiritual refinement? Yes, there
is! It has to do with listening and learning so that we can take up the task of the Gospel with greater clarity and
fortitude. While the spiritual refocusing of Lent is necessary, the fruit of this Lenten conversion has much more to
do with learning how we can be a better Church than it does about our eternal salvation. Salvation is a gift that
flows out of God’s unconditional Mercy and cannot be merited. The spiritual maturity we can experience as a
result of our Lenten disciplines serves to reduce the anxiety and apprehension we may experience as messengers of
good, but very challenging, and unsettling, news.
St. Oscar Romero said that, “a church that doesn’t provoke any crises, a gospel that doesn’t unsettle, a word of God
that doesn’t get under anyone’s skin, a word of God that doesn’t touch the real sin of the society in which it is
being proclaimed, what gospel is that?” When we listen to those descriptive and provocative words, do they
resonate with anything in our experience? As messengers of the Gospel, we are called to bring an unsettling
message to the world. If our main concern is protecting our self-interests, then we are missing something huge!
Many really struggle with being rejected, dismissed, or perceived as someone who is speaking out of turn. There is
a counter cultural message that must be preached that clearly sides with the poor, marginalized, victimized,
oppressed, neglected, disregarded, and lost souls throughout the world. There is a widespread misery among the
peoples that is all too often allowed to fester with no one coming forward to offer a change or resolution.
The Church can speak to the needed structural changes that will allow people to earn just wages, feed their families
and share abundantly and equally in the gifts of God’s good earth. Such a vision is not some optimistic fairy tale,
but the vision of the Creator himself. Lent reminds us, as St. Oscar Romero also states, that, “we are workers, not
master builder, ministers, not messiahs. We are prophets of a future not our own.” We are not called to labor
simply for the benefit of the here and now but of the “what is to come.” Our myopic vision can be replaced by a
more far reaching Lenten vision that is much greater and deeper in scope. As long as we are carrying the right
blueprints with us and our thoughts extend beyond ourselves, then even the little things we do and the simplest
prayer we utter go a long way. They give witness to our preference for the light of Christ and not the darkness of
error and sin.

               $86,908. You are absolutely amazing in helping the ministries supported by this appeal
               throughout the Diocese to enable them to assist our parishes in the work we all do for the
               people of God. The current amount represents 66.3% of our goal from 16.3% of our
               households. With gratitude for the increase this week. However, we still have a way to go. It
               would be most wonderful if we can meet our goal again this year. Pledges of any amount are
               greatly appreciated. We thank you for your continued generosity. Should you need a pledge
               card please contact the church office. You may place pledges into any collection or give to any
               usher. If everyone gives as last year, we will meet our goal.

Stewardship and the Season of Lent: Changing Ourselves

Saint Ignatius of Loyola offered us these words of wisdom, which seem particularly relevant as we come
closer to the season of Lent: “He who goes about to reform the world must begin with himself, or he loses his
labor.” Christian stewards are by nature reformers. We attempt to live our lives in a way that makes the world
a better place. We open our hearts to the Gospel. We contribute to charities that we believe in. We build up
our Catholic parishes so that they might shine the light of truth into our weary world. We work to alleviate
poverty and injustice. We witness to Christ’s healing presence in our homes and places of work. Many of us
work in schools, parishes, and diocesan offices where we bring a passion for reforming our world. Christian
stewards who work in a secular environment endeavor to bring Christian values into the marketplace. Lent
doesn’t ask us to stop any of these efforts. But, as we listen to Saint John the Baptist in the Gospel, “the voice
of one who cries in the desert” proclaiming the beginning of Lent, we know that the Church in her wisdom has
given us a compelling season to look inward, to seek quiet time in our own desert. Saint Ignatius, Saint John
the Baptist, and the season of Lent remind us that trying to change the world will not work if we don’t first of
all change ourselves. Lent points the way to what really matters: Christ. We are asked to experience Him who
is the reason for our endeavors, our passion and our work in this world. The Church provides some traditional
guidelines: prayer, fasting, almsgiving. Saint John the Baptist provides a challenge: “Anyone who has two
tunics must share with the one who has none, and anyone with something to eat must do the
same” (Luke3:11). How we integrate these three guidelines into Lent’s forty days is a personal decision, but
one which should take us on a journey into our own hearts, where we ask ourselves why we labor, what our
work and our life really mean, to whom we and our life’s work really belong.                           ( ICSC)
