Jesus did not ask the man to give up his riches because having them was a sin. He asked him to give them up because they stood between the man and what Jesus wanted of him; his service to others. (Jack Russell)

Everyone is Welcome

I f we take a close look at the man in

today’s gospel, who asks Jesus how to get eternal life and happi-ness, then we can glean quite a lot.

He was humble; he actually ran up and knelt at Jesus’ feet be-fore speaking to him. He clearly had good motives because he wanted to know how to inherit eternal life. And he had good sense; enough to know that from what he heard of him Jesus was the right person to help him with this. So he was nobody’s fool.

W hat we usu-ally remember

about him is that he was rich. But it’s clear that his riches couldn’t satis-fy his deep down needs. That’s why he came to Jesus looking for some-thing that went beyond the grave. His wealth couldn’t give meaning to his life. He was restless and seeking something more than the trappings that money can bring. And of course it’s not as

if he were some sort of villain who would find it hard to accept religion. He already was a reli-gious person and a mor-ally upright character. He said that he had kept all the commandments from his earliest days,

so he had probably also fasted from food and tithed some of his wealth. When the other gospel writers recall this epi-sode they tell us that the man was young and that he came from one of the leading families. So by anybody’s reckoning he’s got a lot going for him: young, rich, reputa-ble, religious, moral, thoughtful, common-

sensed and humble.

Y et he went away sad because the

demands that Jesus made of him were more than he was prepared to accept. The incredible

happened: God in Je-sus told him exactly what to do in order to have eternal life. He had to give up all his wealth and give it to the poor. But this would affect his status, his reputation and his lifestyle.

W hat gives meaning to

your life? What do you consider the point of living is? Where do you look for what makes real sense of your

days? Where have you put your treasure? Is it invested in the here and now or have you got your sights on some-thing that will outlast this mortal existence? Being young, rich and even religious cannot get you into heaven. And when Jesus tells you how to inherit eternal life do you go away sad or do you start rejoicing?

HOW TO BE REALLY HAPPY

FAITH IN FOCUS:

Today is Prisoners’ Sunday

As a church, we are asked to pray es-pecially for those who are affected by imprisonment.

It is estimated that 200,000 children are affected by parental imprisonment across England and Wales. Imprison-ment has a rippling effect encompass-ing the prisoner’s wider family. Often when a parent is imprisoned , the chil-dren are twice as likely to experience behavioural and mental health prob-lems and are less likely to do well at school.

The Prison Advice & Care Trust (PACT) is the only national Catholic charity in England and Wales that works solely with those affected by imprisonment. Pact works with prison-ers, their families and with ex-offenders once they have been released.

Next Sunday is World Mission Sunday

Next Sunday, the Holy Father invites all Catholics to contribute to a special collec-tion for Missio, his official charity for over-seas mission. World Mission Sunday is a special day that unites Catholics all over the world in prayer, celebration, and care for the mission of the church.

Thanks to your support, the Catholic church is growing and many parishes can now take care of themselves. However, 40% of the Universal Church is still too new, young or poor to survive without our help, just like the church in Mongolia. By supporting World Mission Sunday, you are directly helping Missionaries in over 1000 dioceses bring hope and new life to people who do not yet know that they are precious in the eyes and heart of God. You will be able to Gift Aid all donations by using en-velopes provided by Missio. Thank you.

A Day of Prayer in Honour of Our Lady The (Carmelite) Association of our Lady invite you to a day in honour of the Sor-rowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary on Saturday 24th October 2015 in Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral. From 11am to 5.30pm.More on the Notice Board.
