Corpus Christi, 06/14/2020 | SETON Sunday News | 3 From Fr. Jose’s desk Meditation: then fed you with manna, a food unknown to you and your fathers, in order to show you that not by bread alone does one “I am the living bread that came down from heaven” live, but by every word that comes forth from the mouth of the My dear brothers and sisters, today we celebrate the LORD.” The Israelites lived in a world of injustice and Solemnity of the Body and Blood of Christ, the Eucharist, the despair. But their tenacity and perseverance in prayer helped center of our Christian faith. The readings this Sunday speak them achieve their freedom. God heard their prayer and freed about the importance of the food that comes from God, them, guiding them towards the promised land. On that without which humanity does not have life, especially eternal journey God allowed them to be hungry, but He fed them life. As believers, we need this food which nourishes not only Himself with the manna that nobody knew, as a way of our spiritual and physical life in a powerful way, but our life teaching them that not by bread alone does man live, but by of communion with God. Jesus says, “Whoever eats my flesh every word that comes forth from the mouth of the Lord. The and drinks my blood word that comes forth from the mouth of God are the commandments that God gave His people then, and He offers remains in me and I in him.” We have been experiencing them to us today so they can guide our life. But today’s world the lack of reception of the Eucharist due to the pandemic is reluctant to live according to God’s teachings. We live in these last several weeks, and people are feeling a void, a strong tension and we need God’s help. What’s one thing that spiritual weakness due to the absence of this food come down can help us lower the rates of violence and injustice in today’s from heaven. Nevertheless, this spiritual hunger has helped world? Love! Love saves because it engenders peace. This us, I think, to value and magnify the essential character of this peace should reign in our hearts first as a fruit of Love, and food which sustains our spiritual life. The people of Israel then we will be able to teach our children and youth to do the have a similar experience. God allowed them to go hungry so same. This is the road we are to follow. He could teach them that He Himself is the essential food for their journey of faith and freedom. They would be lost if He God reminds the people of Israel, and he reminds us today, were not in their hearts. that there is no other way of living that gives more meaning to our life, and that we would be lost if He is not a part of our In the first reading, we hear Moses telling the people of plans. God wishes good for all His children, and He wants us Israel, “Remember how for forty years now the LORD, your to remember this truth. God, has directed all your journeying in the desert, so as to test you by affliction and find out whether or not it was your “Do not forget the LORD, your God, who brought you out intention to keep his commandments.” Undoubtedly, during of the land of Egypt, that place of slavery; who guided you this time of the pandemic, God walks next to us. However, we through the vast and terrible desert with its saraph serpents also feel afflicted and tested. Many people are not seeking and scorpions, its parched and waterless ground; who God, or even trying to live His commandments. God wants to brought forth water for you from the flinty rock and fed you in know how much we love Him, because if we love Him, then the desert with manna, a food unknown to your fathers.” God we love our neighbor like we love ourselves. What does God always is a Word of hope and light. What God asks of us is see when He looks at us today? He sees us committing all very simple. We must not forget that He is our Creator. He sorts of atrocities against human lives in particular and has created us with intellect, with abilities that make us creation in general. We are manufacturing our own different from other living beings. He has placed in our hearts destruction in the name of free will, in the name of the greed abilities which should guide us to act responsibly in our daily for power and control over the weaker members of society. lives. God does not leave us alone. From the very beginning, We accept the subtle blackmail of the powerful, a symbol of God has been merciful with humanity. He did not abandon lies and darkness. This time of a pandemic is a call to take up Adam and Eve, like He didn’t abandon His people in the again the commandment to Love. If we love, we will respect desert. He has not abandoned us, wither. He sent His Son the dignity of life from conception to natural death. We will Jesus to the world not only to teach us the true way, but also also care for our home, Creation, as Pope Francis likes to say. to feed us with His Body and Blood. “Whoever eats my flesh Indifference kills Love. remains in me and I in him.” “whoever eats my flesh has eternal life.” When we are hungry, we want anything to eat, as long as it satisfies our hunger. The same is true in or spiritual life; Brothers and sisters, today more than ever we need to pray right now, we are burdened by the lack of clarity of this more fervently, asking God to never leave us. May we soon reality we are living. There is a hunger for justice and truth. able to return to receive the Bread come down from heaven, Young adults today are asking for change, for justice. We are the Holy Eucharist which sustains our life of faith and our living uncertain times, and they scare us. It is not just about communion with God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. the pandemic anymore, there are issues of injustice, racism, Amen. division of belief, and ideas contrary to truth, to life, to social and religious harmony. This causes discouragement. Moses says, “[God] therefore let you be afflicted with hunger, and Fr Jose Ugalde, MSpS
