PARISH ASSEMBLY THIS SUNDAY AFTER MORNING TEA

IN ST MARY’S HALL

Assure the doubtful Assuring the doubtful helps build their confidence; confidence leads

people to act and believe with conviction. Mercy moves you to assure

others that the universe if unfolding as it should because the Holy Spirit

leads and guides us.

Here is a work of mercy that has two sides to it. On the one hand, we

practise this work of mercy when we offer assurance to those around us

about life decisions, faith, and other matters.

On the other hand, mercy also moves us to seek out such assurance from

friends, spiritual directors, or confessors. We also practise this work of

mercy when we open ourselves to being guided and affirmed, to receiving

the assurance of others.

Often, guilt or doubt provides us with a message to which we should pay

close attention. In this process, we need to check in with trusted guides.

We can’t go it alone in the spiritual life, and this work of mercy reminds us

of that.

This work of mercy moves us to help our fellow travellers on the journey of

faith keep themselves oriented toward holiness. We have each been

given a summons to love; it is our call to holiness.

The summons to love is delivered humbly. It is embedded in a hundred

situations of daily life that present themselves to us day in and day out. All

of these (and many other situations in life) have embedded within them

the call to die to ourselves in order to respond with self-giving love.

When we speak of assuring or counselling the doubtful, we mean

helping people be assured that what they are seeing in their daily lives

does indeed have embedded within it this call to holiness. Excerpt from Be Merciful—Reflections on the Spiritual and Corporal Works of Mercy by Bill Huebsch

REFLECTION

This is a difficult text because it challenges our notions of what Jesus was like. The imagery which Jesus uses has a long history in the Old Testament where we frequently read of peo-ple passing through the fire of testing and judgement. John had prophesied about the one who would come bringing a baptism of fire and judgement but it had never occurred to him that the one who was to come may be the first to undergo that baptism! This rare glimpse into the mind of Jesus reveals an agonising mixture of impatience and reluctance. Convinced that God’s redemptive plan requires him to bring upon Earth the fiery baptism of judgement, not by inflicting it upon others but by undergoing it himself, he feels handi-capped and thwarted until this mission can be accomplished. The reference to households being divided may well be directed at Luke’s community itself. Faith in Jesus could well be the cause of division in families. While predominantly Gentile, Luke’s community did have Jewish Christians. Some Jews failed to recognise Jesus as the Messiah and in the late first century, Jews expelled Christians from their synagogues. To persist in Christian belief would have caused great division.

Has your coming to faith in Christ caused division or awkwardness in your family or with friends?

Who are the people you know who have ‘a fire in their belly’ or great passion about their beliefs?
