St. Monica Parish TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Just two years ago, we engaged in one of the core activities of our democratic system: a presidential election. Actually, the institution of election can be traced to traditions in the Church, and although bishops are no longer chosen in this way, abbots and abbesses (heads of monastic communities) have almost always been elected by full voting members of their communities. The lifetime appointment begins when the monks or nuns are gathered in "chapter" at the death or resignation of the abbot, and fortunately for all involved, campaigning is not allowed! The members of the community discern, with prayer to the Holy Spirit, who among them is the best suited for leadership. Once chosen, the new leader requests the blessing of the local bishop, who usually presides at a ceremony of consecration or investiture. The ballots are always secret, and a simple majority must be achieved. In our American system the Electoral College is the determining voice in the presidential election, not the popular election on a November Tuesday, just as the monastic chapter is the electorate. Today, most religious orders elect general superiors in "chapter" by delegates of the professed members, and usually for a term of six years. A few, like the Jesuits, elect for life. At least we don't have that weight on our shoulders when we choose a president. Four years at a time will do! Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co., Inc. GOD'S LAWS God's laws are not intended to burden or torment us. Instead they are guideposts that point us in the direction of good living. Accordingly, good living requires loving God and loving one another. We should not follow God's laws out of fear of what might happen if we don't, but rather view them as a foundation for building relationships and trust with one another and with God. The Shema prayer of Orthodox Jews is based on the reading from Deuteronomy today, "Hear, O Israel." Every morning people recite the prayer as a profession of their love for God and pledge their obedience to God throughout the day. They pass on their love of God to their children, from one generation to the next. Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co., Inc. November 4 2018 Page 3
St. Monica Parish THIRTY-FIRST SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME Today's readings try to answer the question, "What must I do to be successful?" The readings begin with just one commandment: Love the Lord with all your heart, all your soul, and with all your strength. The psalm extolls God's strength and protection, giving us lots of reasons to love God. The Letter to the Hebrews once again contrasts the perfection of Christ as priest with the weakness of the other priests. Mark reminds us of the first commandment and adds a second element to it. We must not only love God but we must love our neighbor as ourselves. Mark does not provide a lot of details, just the simple understanding that to love God with your whole self and your neighbor as yourself is worth more than any other sacrifice. SECRET OF SUCCESS The readings are fairly simple and straightforward. Do just these two things--love God with your whole self and love your neighbor as yourself--and you will be saved. Deuteronomy and the psalm emphasize the importance of loving God with our whole selves. Hebrews reminds us that Jesus loved us as he loved his Father and so he offered himself for our sins. Mark says that loving God completely must also be accompanied by loving our neighbor. Jesus loved his Father with his whole soul, his whole mind, his whole strength. The love between God and Jesus makes them one. Everything hinges on the completeness and the inclusiveness of that love. LOVE We all love rules to measure our actions and assure us that we have done enough. Today we are given two rules that offer us none of that. These rules require us to focus only on love: love of God and love of neighbor. There are not seven or ten. There are just two. You must love God but you must do it with your entire being. Everything you are must be focused on and reflect loving God. And then you must love your neighbor. The first is key to the second. Unless we understand how God loves both the lovable as well as the unlovable, we will never be able to love ourselves or any other creature or creation as God loves them all. The Gospels remind us that Jesus sought the broken, the marginalized, the unwanted to teach us how God loves. If everything about you is about loving a God who created and redeemed you, then you love as God loves. If you love as God loves, you recognize the weakness in yourself and in the world yet you still love that broken self and broken world as its Creator does. That is the only measure of success that matters. November 4 2018 Page 5

MIŁUJĘ CIĘ, PANIE, MOCY MOJA, BOŻE MÓJ, OSTOJO MOJA (PS 18, 2-3) Parafia p.w. Sw. Moniki Liturgia dzisiejsza wykazuje ciągłość między Starym a Nowym Testamentem a zarazem nowość tego ostatniego. W Księdze Powtórzonego Prawa (6, 2-6) czytamy pierwsze sformułowanie przykazania miłości: Słuchaj, Izraelu: Pan jest naszym Bogiem Pan jedyny. Będziesz miłował twojego Boga, Pana, z całego swego serca, z całej duszy swojej, ze wszystkich swych sił (tamże 4-5). Te same słowa powracają w dzisiejszej Ewangelii (Mk 12, 28-34) jako odpowiedź Jezusa dana uczonemu, pytającemu Go, które jest pierwsze ze wszystkich przykazań? (tamże 28). Słowa te były dobrze znane Żydom, powtarzali je bowiem dwa razy w ciągu dnia jako modlitwę ranną i wieczorną. Pierwsze słowo: Słuchaj od którego ta modlitwa wzięła nazwę było wezwaniem do rozważania przykazania Pańskiego i do odmierzania nim własnego życia. Istotnie, modlić się to nie znaczy tylko wzywać Boga i prosić Go o łaski, lecz przede wszystkim słuchać Go: słyszeć Jego słowo, rozważać je i być mu posłusznym. Jezus również położył nacisk na to pełne i życiowe pojęcie modlitwy: Nie każdy, który mi mówi: «Panie, Panie», wejdzie do królestwa niebieskiego, lecz ten, kto spełnia wolę mojego Ojca, który jest w niebie (Mt 7, 21). Jezus podejmując dawne przykazanie nadaje mu nowe znaczenie. Przede wszystkim odłącza je od całokształtu drugorzędnych przepisów i stawia ponad wszelkie przykazania, a następnie łączy z przykazaniem miłości bliźniego i stwierdza z powagą: Nie ma innego przykazania większego od tego (Mk 12, 31). Uczony w Piśmie, który Go o to zapytał, stwierdza i wnioskuje mądrze, że miłować Boga ze wszystkich sił, bliźniego zaś jak siebie samego, daleko więcej znaczy niż wszystkie całopalenia i ofiary (tamże 33). W jego słowach brzmi głos proroków, którzy nieustannie stwierdzali bezużyteczność kultu, którego nie ożywiałaby miłość. Boga należy czcić modlitwą i ofiarami, lecz one nie są miłe Bogu, jeśli nie pochodzą z serc miłujących Go szczerze i razem z Nim kochających bliźniego. Bóg jest miłością; całe stworzenie jest owocem Jego miłości. Człowiek stworzony z miłości, żyje dzięki miłości, która go zachowuje przy istnieniu i napełnia swoimi darami. Ponieważ miłość jest źródłem jego życia, człowiek nie może nie kochać, miłość jest dla niego zasadniczym wymaganiem i nierozłącznym obowiązkiem, odpowiednim do jego natury. Przede wszystkim powinien kochać Miłość, która go stworzyła, Boga Najświętszego; a otrzymawszy od Niego wszystko, logiczne jest, aby Go miłował nie tylko jakimś westchnieniem, lecz całym swoim sercem, całą swoją duszą, całym swoim umysłem i całą swoją mocą (tamże). Ponadto, stworzony na obraz Boga miłującego wszystkie stworzenia, człowiek powinien rozciągnąć swoją miłość na wszystkich do siebie podobnych. Jezus, istotnie łącząc miłość bliźniego z miłością Boga, uwolnił ją od wszelkiego zacieśnienia; uczył, że bliźni to nie tylko krewny, przyjaciel, sąsiad, współziomek, lecz także nieprzyjaciel, obcokrajowiec, nieznajomy, czyli każdy człowiek. Potwierdził to własnymi słowami, lecz jeszcze więcej własnym przykładem, oddając życie za wszystkich ludzi, umierając za nich, gdy jeszcze byli nieprzyjaciółmi (Rz 5, 8). Jeśli Bóg tak nas umiłował, to i my winniśmy się wzajemnie miłować... Jeżeli miłujemy się wzajemnie, Bóg trwa w nas i miłość ku Niemu jest w nas doskonała (1 J 4, 11-12). Słowa św. Jana pogłębiają wniosek uczonego w Piśmie i uzupełniają go. Apostoł zrozumiał całą doniosłość przykazania miłości i łączność Życiową między miłością ku Bogu a miłością ku bliźniemu do tego stopnia, że twierdzi, iż pierwsza jest doskonała tylko wtedy, gdy towarzyszy jej druga. Kto tak żyje przykazaniem miłości, jest nie tylko niedaleko od królestwa Bożego (Mk 12, 34), jak powiedział Jezus do uczonego, lecz odnajduje je w swoim wnętrzu, ponieważ kto trwa w miłości, trwa w Bogu, a Bóg trwa w nim (1 J 4,16).

XXXI NIEDZIELA ZWYKŁA Spiewnik Bóg nad swym ludem zmiłował się i Zbawiciela nam zesłał. Miłość nam daje usuwa grzech Prowadzi w bramy Królestwa. Chryste króluj, Chryste zwyciężaj, Swoją miłość odnów w nas. Miłość Chrystusa przemienia świat, Wyznacza szlaki wciąż nowe. Kruszy nienawiść, wprowadza ład, Jednoczy z ludźmi i Bogiem. Psalm: Miłuję Ciebie, Panie, mocy moja. Przykazanie nowe daje wam Byście sie wzajemnie miłowali. Jam jest Chlebem Życia, Kto do mnie przychodzi nie będzie łakną. Kto we mnie wierzy nigdy pragnąc nie będzie Nikt nie może przyjść do mnie, Jeśli go nie pociągnie Ojciec. A Ja go wskrzeszę, a Ja go wskrzeszę, A Ja go wskrzeszę w dniu ostatecznym. Chlebem, który Ja dam, Jest moje Ciało za życie świata, Jeśli kto spożywa ten chleb, Będzie żył na wieki, będzie żył na wieki. Ja jestem Zmartwychwstaniem, Ja jestem Życiem, Jeśli kto we Mnie wierzy, Choćby i umarł, żyć będzie na wieki. Upadnij na kolana, Ludu czcią przejęty. Uwielbiaj swego Pana, Święty, Święty, Święty! Zabrzmijcie z nami Nieba, Bóg nasz niepojęty, W postaci przyszedł chleba: Święty... Powtarzaj ludzki rodzie, Wiarą przeniknięty, Na wschodzie i zachodzie: Święty... Pan wieczny zawsze, wszędzie, Ku nam łaską zdjęty, Niech wiecznie wielbion będzie: Święty... Weź w Swą opiekę nasz Kościól święty, Panno Najświętsza, Niepokalana! Niechaj miłością każdy przejęty Czci w nim Jezusa, naszego Pana. Niech Serce Twoje, Ojca Świętego, On nieprzyjaciół zasadzki chroni, Niech się do Pana modli za niego, Od złej przygody niechaj go broni. November 4 2018 Page 8
