A LITTLE OF OUR FAITH

 

                    (015)  HOSANNA! BLESSED IS THE ONE

                                         WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD !

 

Dear Beth and Faith

 

Today – April 01 - we celebrate the Passion (Palm)  Sunday .

 

This is the Gospel of today.

 

(In the end of the Lecture of the Passion, according to Mark)

 

There were also women looking on from a distance; among them were  Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the younger and Joses, and Salome.

These used to follow him and provided for him when was in Galilee; and there were many other women who had come up with him to Jerusalem.

When  evening had come, and since it was the day of Preparation, that is, the day before the Sabbath, Joseph of Arimathea, a respected member of the council, who was also himself waiting expectantly for the kingdom of God, went boldly to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.

Then Pilate wondered if he  were already dead; and summoning the centurion, he asked him whether he had been dead for some time.

When he learned from the centurion that Jesus was dead, he granted the body to Joseph.

Then Joseph bought a linen cloth, and taking down the body, wrapped in the linen cloth, and laid it in a tomb that had been hewn out of the rock.

He then rolled a stone against the door of the tomb.

Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses saw where the body was laid.

 

 

Today's liturgy, like much of life at times, is marked by wild contrasts.

One day Jesus rides into Jerusalém in triumph.

He es greeted with joyful shouting : "Hosanna ! Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord !".

The peopke greet the one who will fulfil all their  hopes : their King, their Savior, the Messiah who will give them heaven on earth !

But within days everything changes.

Jesus is betrayed by one of his  closest followers ; he is arrested, beaten, humiliated, tried on trumped-up charges and sentenced to crucifixion.

His friends fail to confort him in his darkest hour and his chosen successor denies him.

The crowds, who days earlier cheered him, are offered a chance to pardon him; they choose a notorious thug and murderer over Jesus, crying : "Crucify him !".

And they do crucify him between two common criminals.

What a wild descent in only a few days.

Our lives can sometimes seem like that.

But notice Jesus' calm acceptance of both the high and the low.

Other than in his cry to God – Abba, Father, for you all things are possible; remove this cup from me; yet, not what I want, but what you want" – Jesus demonstrates commitment and equanimity.

This is the lesson of Jesus the man : bear all things equally ; with God all things are possible.

 

                                    .............................

 

 "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me ?

 

With joy and peace, we love you.

            Maria & John
