HOMILY: Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time (C)
Luke 6, 17, 20-26
Blessed in Poverty, Hunger, Sorrow and Persecution
Do you consider yourself blessed? When we think about blessings, we often imagine being wealthy, well-fed, joyful, and living comfortably as “blessed”. If we are deep in debt or mourning the sudden loss of a loved one or living a hand-to-mouth existence, can we confidently feel the grace of God in our life? In this Sunday’s gospel reading from Luke, Jesus challenges our idea of what it means to be truly blessed. He says the poor, the hungry, the sorrowful, and those who face persecution are the ones who are truly blessed. To us, it doesn’t seem to make sense, right? Wait… how can that be?
