Liturgical Ministers - February 2 & 3
T he following discussion about Wisdom, one of the
seven gifts of the Holy Spirit, comes from Pope Francis,
nearly five years ago on 4/12/2014.
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Today we begin a series of reflections on the gifts of the Holy
Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the soul, the lifeblood of the Church
and of every Christian: He is God's Love, who makes our
hearts his home and enters into communion with us. The
Holy Spirit is always with us, always in us, in our hearts.
The Spirit himself is "God's gift" par excellence (cf. Jn 4:10) a
gift from God, and in turn communicates different spiritual
gifts to those who welcome him. The Church identifies seven,
a number that symbolically speaks of fullness, completeness;
we learn these when preparing for the sacrament of
Confirmation and we invoke them in the ancient prayer
called the "Sequence of the Holy Spirit." The gifts of the Holy
Spirit are: wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude,
knowledge, piety and fear of God.
1. The first gift of the Holy Spirit, according to this traditional
list, is wisdom. It is not merely human wisdom. It is the fruit
of knowledge and experience. In the Bible we are told that, at
the time of his coronation as king of Israel, God asked
Solomon what gift he wanted to receive. Solomon did not ask
for wealth, success, fame, or a long and happy life. Instead
he asked for "an understanding heart that knows how to
distinguish good from evil" (1 Kings 3:9).
This is wisdom: it is the grace of being able to see everything
with the eyes of God. It is simply this: Seeing the world
situations, conjunctures, problems, everything with God's
eyes. This is wisdom. Often we see things as we want to see
them or according to our heart, with love, with hate, with
envy. No this is not with God's eyes. Wisdom is what the Holy
Spirit does within us so that we can see everything with God's
eyes. This is the gift of wisdom.
2. Obviously this gift comes from intimacy with God, for our
intimate relationship with God, from our relationship as
children with a Father. And the Holy Spirit - when we have
this relationship - gives us the gift of wisdom. When we are
in communion with the Lord, it is as if the Spirit transfigures
our heart and helps it to perceive all his warmth and
predilection.
3. The Holy Spirit also makes the Christian "wise". This is,
however, not in the sense that he or she has an answer for
everything, or knows everything, but in the sense that he or
she "knows" of God, how God acts. They know when
something is of God and when it is not.
They know this; they have this wisdom that God gives our
heart. The heart of the wise man has this taste of God. It is so
important that our communities have Christians such as
these! Everything about them speaks of God and becomes a
beautiful and vital sign of His presence and His love.
And it is something we cannot improvise, something we
cannot obtain by our own merits: it is a gift that God gives to
those who are docile to His Holy Spirit. We have the Holy
Spirit in our hearts; we can listen to him or not.
If we listen to him he teaches us this path of wisdom. He
gifts us wisdom which is seeing with God's eyes, listening
with God's ears, loving with God's heart, judging things with
Gods' judgment. These are the things that the Holy Spirit
gifts us and we can all have this. We just have to ask the
Holy Spirit.
Think of a mother at home with her children. One child does
something and another thinks otherwise and the poor
mother is torn between the two children's problems. When
the mother is tired and she shouts at her children, is that
wisdom? I ask you is that wisdom - what do you say? No!
Instead when the mother takes her child to one side and
gently rebukes him, and explains this is God's wisdom! Yes!
St. Francis Parish would like to
welcome all newcomers and visitors.
We turn your attention to the
Ministry Table in the narthex of the
church where you will find information
on the various ministries in our parish and how to contact the coordinator.
New parishioners are encouraged
to register by calling the office at
503-625-6185.
We welcome you as we welcome Christ!
And this is what the Holy Spirit gives us in life.
In a marriage for example, a couple argues, then they won't
look at one another, or if they do it is with anger. Is that
God's wisdom? No! Instead, when they say let the storm
pass, let's make peace! That's wisdom, that's the gift of
wisdom that comes to our homes, to children, to all of us!
And it cannot be learned, it is a gift of the Holy Spirit!
This is why we must ask the Lord to gift us the Holy Spirit
and the gift of wisdom that teaches us to see with God's eyes,
to feel with God's heart to speak with God's words! And with
this wisdom we can move forward, build the family, the
Church and we can all be sanctified. Let us ask for this grace
of wisdom today. Let us ask Our Lady, who is the Seat of
Wisdom, for this gift.

BOOK-OF-THE-MONTH February’s Book-of-the-Month is
Eucharistic Miracles
Joan Carroll Cruz
ISBN# 9780895553034
On many occasions throughout the history of the
Catholic Church, God has provided visible proof of
the invisible reality of the Real Presence of Jesus
Christ in the Holy Eucharist. In her book, Eucharistic
Miracles, Joan Carroll Cruz documents 36 such
miracles which occurred from 800 AD to the present
day. This book tells of consecrated Hosts which have
visibly turned to human flesh, have bled, levitated, and
which have become hard as flint when received by a
person in mortal sin. It details the official investigations
that have been made into these miracles by scientists
throughout the world, and where some can still be
venerated today. Eucharistic Miracles also recounts
miraculous Eucharistic phenomena in the lives of
saints: saints who lived with only the Eucharist for
sustenance, received Communication miraculously, or
experienced raptures, ecstasies, levitations, visions,
locutions, and more. Pictures and photographs of the
miracles, the churches they took place in, and the
people involved are also included, adding the final
touch to a comprehensive, detailed, and extraordinary
overview of these miraculous happenings. Eucharistic
Miracles is a superb compilation of God's visible
testimony of the truth of the Catholic Faith, proving
the reality of one of its loftiest mysteries -- the Real
Presence of Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist.

What is despair? Despair is the sin of
deliberately refusing to believe that God will
always give the necessary help for salvation to all
who ask for it. St. Paul Family Catechism.
We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair (2 Cor. 4:8).
Next week: What is charity?
