CATHOLIC FAITHWATCH: “Homily, 25th Sunday in Ordinary Time, Year B – 10.20.15” – Father Boniface O’Nell, OSB, Saint Anselm’s Abbey

Artistic Drawing of Jesus Preaching in Sermon on the Mount

“… With a Christ-like attitude, every work in which we find ourselves is a work of service. We are stewards only of the many gifts God entrusts to us and which God intends to be used in His Service. Meeting the needs of others means being present to others in many different ways.[] Christ’s teaching is not meant to be a formula for worldly success. It involves drudgery and ingratitude. We, the Baptized are called to continue Christ’s work of service so that Jesus can give His Love to others through us. We all have opportunities to serve those around us …. The occasions are limitless. To be a Disciple means being open to what God asks of us at any given moment, even in very small things …. By putting on the Mind of Christ in the Service of others we become Transfigured in Christ and even in this life begin to know the Peace and Joy of the Kingdom.”
