Made For Each Other...
Today’s First Reading under scor es God’s intention that man and woman be joined in marriage. It supports the Gospel theme of
strengthening the bonds of marriage. In this Genesis account, God creates Eve from Adam’s rib. The Sumerian word for rib is the
word for life. Eve’s life is drawn from Adam. There is also a sense of intimacy in the choice of the title “woman”. Men and
women were made for each other and complete each other. Today’s Responsorial is a wisdom psalm, focusing on the blessings to
those who walk in God’s ways; using societal images. The first blessing is eating the fruit of one’s labor. (So the curse Adam
received as punishment for his sin is hereby reversed.) The second blessing is a happy family life, seen in terms of children. The
third blessing is societal, for the entire community, society blessed with prosperity. Today’s Second Reading, fr om Hebr ews, is
the first in a series until the feast of Christ the King. It’s a foreshadowing of our Savior’s Incarnation. God made Him briefly
(while on earth) less than the angels so that the One (Jesus) born as one like us, would save us by atoning for our Divine transgres-
sion. Only the God-man could fully achieve this reparation. In today’s Gospel, J esus upholds the sanctity of mar r iage and the
innocence of children. In His day the rabbis interpreted the law as loosely as possible to facilitate a man divorcing his wife on even
the most trivial grounds, including a burned meal. Jesus rejected this tendency as abusive. Jesus not only sought to protect women
from exploitation, but also wanted to protect the sanctity of the marriage bond. He taught them that God intended man and woman
to become one flesh. So given that, it follows that man and woman should not separate or divorce. Jesus was adamant in His
condemnation of divorce (twice in Matthew, plus First Corinthians). Since God had made them for each other, they should not be
separated. Regarding children; Jesus welcomed them and instructed His disciples to be simple and innocent like children, not
power-hungry. It is precisely a child’s attitude of acceptance that makes it possible to enter God’s Kingdom.
Pastor’s Corner October is dedicated to the Holy Rosary
but it is also Respect Life Month. Let us remember that every
human life is priceless and we are all loved by God. Reflect on
this year’s theme - "Every Life: Cherished, Chosen, Sent." . The
essence of our identity is that we are created in God's image and
likeness and loved by Him. Nothing can diminish the priceless
worth of any human life. Every person is cherished. God cr eates
every person for eternal union with Himself and continually
invites us to embrace a loving relationship with Him. Every
person is chosen. We ar e called to be messenger s of God's love,
treating one another as cherished and chosen by Him. In doing so,
we help build a culture that respects all human life. Every person
is sent.

help bring Christ's transforming love to cultures gripped by
