Friar’s Corner: Blessed hope
This is the next to last Sunday of Ordinary Time. Next Sunday we shall end our Church year with the wonderful Feast of Christ the King. Then we begin to look at the life of God’s Son come to earth all over again. Jesus Christ was physically here for 33 years and accomplished the salvation of the entire human race by his death and resurrection. Jesus healed thousands, collected special followers, formed a new Kingdom of God, his Church, from the Jewish community and returned to heaven. He empowered his followers, though not perfect, to continue to serve and care for God’s people. In the various sacraments of his Church, Jesus continues his life among us especially in the Mass or Eucharistic Liturgy. At every moment around the world every day, Jesus offers himself in the Eucharist. In the Lord’s Prayer, that Jesus taught us, we pray “Give us this day our Daily Bread. Thank you, Jesus.
