A HUMBLE KING Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time July 9, 2017

Like a tonal center in music, the note to which we keep

returning in today’s readings is humility. We wait in joyful

expectation for the coming of our Lord as King. But what

we are told to expect and rejoice over is a meek and hum-

ble king, riding on an ass. Not horses or chariots of the

great and mighty, but a humble beast carries the Ruler

whose dominion stretches “from the River to the ends of

the earth” (Zechariah 9:10). This King comes to banish the

tools of the warrior and bring peace. No wonder that a

weary world rejoices and gives thanks to God! Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

“Rejoice because after I destroy the land I will bring you home.” That is a paraphrase of the last couple of

chapters from the Prophet Zechariah. Imagine for a second that conversation. The prophet prophesies doom and

destruction, “But wait there’s more.” Rejoice now as you prepare for the destruction because there will come a time

of return. Doom and destruction, in the future for you, then followed by return, so don’t worry now, instead rejoice.

Aren’t there many, many things that can cause us to despair, sometimes they are worthy of the despair. And

the Lord God through the mouth tells us to rejoice. And not just rejoice, but to rejoice heartily and to shout with joy.

This last week we celebrated the Fourth of July. We took days off and we closed banks, and we had barbeques and

we shot fireworks. I bet there was a little inconvenience. I bet there were moments of regret and looking back, and

shame in war and death and destruction. And thankfulness for those who lost their lives so that we could be free. I

will bet that every military family breathed prayers of safety and gratitude.

We can be both filled with dread and gloom, and rejoicing and joy. We can be people living a time that is

anything but just with eyes focused on the land of eternal justice.

Volunteers needed for Vocation Crucifix. We are in need of volunteers for the vocation crucifix for

the next 3 months, August, September and October.
