Sharing the Word for October 31, 2022 – Thirty-first Week in Ordinary Time – Year 2
Jesus’ reminder is for all of us to understand that living out the gospel in our lives here on earth will provide us with a happiness only God can give.
The Power of Words
At the bottom of my bed is a chest filled with memories that I have collected over the years. There are cards from loved ones, notes from my husband, Mark, and special gifts from my kids, among other things. At the very bottom of the chest is a collection of papers from my grade school years.
Relational Power
Jesus used relational power to bring out the best in those he encountered. He used his power to empower his followers—to help them see their identity as God’s beloved children.
Faith vs. Fear
Fear is a universal—perhaps even essential—human condition. Denying it is no solution.
Identity, Justice, and Community
We will not appreciate Jesus’ loyalty to the Law and the Prophets if we do not accept his deeper understanding of freedom.
