Twenty-Seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time - Words from Canon Niall  ~                       
The Lord puts a high ideal before us in the Gospel. His ideal for marriage is placed before us in both the first reading and the Gospel reading today. Jesus communicates God’s vision of two lives becoming one life I marriage, of two people bound by a love that is faithful and generous, a reflection of God’s love for his people. This is a high ideal, and it can be difficult to live this ideal.
But it is not only married people who have such a challenging calling. The Lord calls on all of us, married or single, to love one another as he has loves us. The Gospel is challenging for us all. The call of the Gospel brings home to us our need God’s Spirit to live God’s way. If we are to keep following in his way, we need to come before the Lord with open hearts, asking, begging, for the help that only the Lord can give. We need that child- like openness that Jesus refers to in the Gospel reading to receive from the Lord the strength we need to keep reaching for the ideal he puts before us. Even if we don’t always attain that ideal, it is the reaching for it that is important- not in an overly strenuous way, but in the power of the Spirit that the Lord will give to those who ask for it out of their need. We will fall short of the Gospel call, many times, but the important thing is not to give up on it. The Lord certainly never gives up on us, and if we are open and receptive to him, like children, we will receive from him all we need to keep on pursing his vision for our lives.
Have a blessed week.
