PRAYER TO SAINT HYACINTH O holy St. Hyacinth, patron of our parish, we ask you to intercede for us and win God's blessings for our parish. We come together as family to bring praise and worship to the Father. May we live lives that are holy and worthy of the name Christian. Bless us with your devotion to Mary the Mother of God and with an ardent faith in Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. Win for us the graces to continue to live according to gospel values and the teachings of the church. Intercede for us and protect us as we place ourselves under your patronage and care. REFLECTING ON GOD’S WORD “Beggars can’t be choosers!” we might say to a child who asks for a different candy bar from the one we have handed him. “Beggars can’t be choosers!” we might think as we watch a struggling mother sort through hand-me-downs at the free store. “Beggars can’t be choosers!” we might tell ourselves when we are mistreated by someone we rely on to supply our needs. Those four little words may seem logical and harmless. Yet, how many children, unemployed, elderly, sick, or otherwise vulnerable people have lost their self-respect and stopped voicing their needs because they believe those four little words! Today’s scriptures challenge us to stop using, or even thinking, those four words. They invite us to see that, yes, beggars can and should be choosers. The first and second readings seem directed to those who feel they deserve better than others. They show God’s mercy extending to all who call on and love the name of the Lord, and remind us that all of us have disobeyed, thus all of us are beggars. The Gospel speaks to those who feel they deserve worse than others. The Canaanite woman is held up as a model to imitate, not someone to be scorned and rejected. We are encouraged never again to let feelings of unworthiness convince us that our needs don’t deserve a hearing, respect, and a response.

How might you express your faith in God, in others, and in yourself? How might God use your faith to convert others? Copyright © 2012, World Library Publications. All rights reserved.

Wynikło to z używania go przez wiele wieków w Kościele. Wiara znaczyła tyle, co wierność. Można odczuć ten sens w pokrewnym słowie „wierny” i w zwrocie „dochować wiary”. Jednakże, gdy mowa o religijnym pojmowaniu wiary, dziś kojarzy się ona potocznie inaczej, bo ze sferą poglądów.Drugi odcień terminu „wiara” wynika ze zwrotu „dać wiarę” — czyli zaufać, co ramowo odpowiada Biblii. Jest to żywe w języku potocznym. Jeśli ktoś uwierzył, jej czy jemu, oznacza to, że zaufał, chociaż niekoniecznie słusznie. (Może ten ktoś kłamał? Wiara zbliża się tu niebezpiecznie do łatwowierności.)Jakie jest wobec tego podstawowe znaczenie wiary? Jakie znaczenie stało na pierwszym miejscu w wyjściowym języku Pisma Świętego, po hebrajsku? Przymiotnik 'emun oznacza wiernego, zaufanego, pewnego. Taki jest w szczególności Bóg; nie jest to tylko cecha człowieka. Termin 'emunah, tłumaczony „wiara”, oznacza stałość, wierność, solidność, także Boską. Temat 'aman, od którego te słowa się wywodzą, wskazuje na pewność, stałość, trwanie, solidność, autentyczność, a wreszcie prawdziwość. Wierzący to zatem ktoś wierny Bogu. Bogu, a także przymierzu, przykazaniom, nauce proroków. W Nowym Testamencie chodzi o wierność Chrystusowi i jego nauce. Michal Wojciechowski
