SHEPHERD’S CORNER
Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ,
Greetings!
In the Gospel of Luke 14:26, Jesus tells us that, “If
anyone comes to me without turning his back on his
father and mother, his wife and his children, his
brothers & sisters, indeed his very self, he cannot be
my follower!”
When we hear a gospel passage like this, we often
find ourselves wondering whether Jesus really meant
that we should turn our backs on our families or was
he exaggerating?
Our Lord was not exaggerating but rather engaging in
poetic expression to emphasize the kind of dedication
He expected from His followers. There were sayings
of Jesus collect by St. Luke about the theme of
dedication. “God must come first no matter what,
God is above anyone else.”
We are asked by the Lord to love God more than
others, even more than our parents, family, brothers
and sisters. This is a very serious matter. If we meet
a conflict between our loved ones and Christ what
should be our priority, our family or God?
God is not in competition with our family, parents,
brothers and sisters for our love. Jesus states very
clearly that God should come first in our lives; nobody
and nothing should become His rival. Giving God the
first place, on the other hand assures us that we
practice true love to all people and give each person
his rightful place.
Our love to others can never be an excuse to
surrender our love for God.
To be a real
follower/disciple of Christ demands an undivided
heart, an attention that seeks no less than a total
configuration with Him. Following Christ is not a
onetime decision but it is a process and along the
process are struggles, dying to oneself and carrying of
the cross.
Once again, Jesus reminds us. “If anyone will come
after me let him deny himself and take up his cross
and follow me.”
Are we ready to follow him?
God bless us all.
Yours in Christ,
Fr. Jojo
.
