Sunday, July 4, 2021 That the “Word was made failure and died among us” is the
14th Sunday in Ordinary Time source of our hope, not despair, for as Maria Boulding, OSB,
writes: “If you have ever been sickened by the failure of some
Ezekiel 2:2-5; 2 Corinthians 12:7-10; Mark 6:1-6a enterprise into which you put your best efforts and the love of
your heart, you are caught up into the fellowship of Christ’s
death and resurrection, whether or not you thought of your
experience in that way. God had dealt with our failure by him-
self becoming a failure and so healing it from the inside. This
is why we can meet him in our failure; it is a sure place for
finding him, since he has claimed it. So central is failure to the
Easter mystery that a person who has never grappled with it
could scarcely claim to be Christ’s friend and follow-

We may still be more inclined to listen to those who appear
to be prophets on the celebrity circuit rather than those with
whom we rub shoulders daily. We need humble ongoing and
gospel-based discernment of the authenticity of prophets.

applied to the people when they drink from the chalice, and it

instituting the new and better covenant prophesied by Jeremi-
ah. This is made particularly clear in Luke’s version, where
Jesus says that the chalice signifies “the new covenant in my
blood” (Luke 22:20).
The Eucharist thus sums up the themes God established with
his people Israel and elevates them to a new level. The original
events involved the delivery of a single nation from slavery,
the creation of a national covenant, and a journey to an earthly
Promised Land. Now, with the coming of the Messiah, we have

Promise Land—heaven.
The Eucharist in the Church The Passover meal was not
a one-time event but something God’s people did regularly to
commemorate what he had done for them. Similarly, Jesus did
not mean the Eucharist to be celebrated just one time. He told
the disciples, “Do this in remembrance of me” (Luke 22:19),
and it became a regular feature of Christian life. In fact, it was
celebrated far more frequently than the Passover, which was
held only once a year. In his letters to the Corinthians, St. Paul

Genesis 44:18-21, 23b-29; 45:1-5; Matthew 10:7-15
The gospel for today refers to the amazing powers Jesus con-
ferred upon his followers to cure and revive. But we know
many people in Jesus’ day and today do not experience a mira-
cle cure but instead must bear a cross. Our faith gives us the
wisdom to know how and when to bear suffering when a solu-
tion is absent and when to struggle against injustice; both can
be paths to God. Indeed, miracles themselves, the church
teaches, are not merely wondrous events; they are meant to
transform us and bring us closer to God. Which way are you
being called right now? To struggle against suffering and in-
justice? Or to bow to a cross in your life? Over a lifetime, we
may be called to both paths.
