FEBRUARY 7, 2020 5TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
FROM OUR PASTOR
Dear people of God,
Good morning to you all! May the peace of God
be with you!!
On this fifth Sunday of ordinary time, in the three
readings we are given the inner sense of three
different people and their relationship to what the
Father has asked of them. We can put them in
this order: Job speaks before knowing of the
salvation given to us in Christ Jesus. Jesus
speaks to us of His inner calling to proclaim the
Good News. Saint Paul then tells us how to
proclaim that Good News so that all can come to
know Jesus.
Most of us probably already know the story of
Job. He was a man who believed completely in
the Lord and had receive enormous
blessings. The devil tries to undo this faith of
Job. Eventually all the blessings are removed
and sufferings are heaped on Job. While Job
questions what is happening, he never doubts nor
loses faith. Yes, we know that in the end, Job
received so many gifts from God because his
faith did not fail. Are we that strong in
faith? Can we trust God even when we
question? Do we accept both blessings and
sufferings from our Lord?
The second reading, from the First Letter to the
Corinthians, is Saint Paul’s account of how he
tries to live the Good News. Saint Paul is
clear: I must preach the Good News! Here we
see Saint Paul not just enduring all of the trials
and tribulations, but recognizing that preaching
the Good News is required of him because he
believes in Jesus. Does our faith impel us to
share our faith with others? Are we able to tell
others about our faith in Jesus?
The Gospel today is from Saint Mark. We are
still at the beginning of this Gospel. Jesus is just
beginning His public ministry. What is truly
strong in the Gospel today is that everyone is
looking for Jesus for miracles of healing and
driving out demons and that there is no place for
Him to be away from the people. Jesus responds
to that by saying: “Let us go on to the nearby
villages that I may preach there also. For this
purpose, have I come?”
The whole purpose of the life of Jesus is to
preach the Kingdom, to proclaim the Good
News. The values of kingdom of God is peace,
love, joy, healing, forgiveness and justice. God
loves us and invites us to share His life. Let us
believe in it.
Have a happy and Blessed Sunday!!
Yours in the Lord,
Fr. Doss
