Devotions

Living the Paschal Mystery

Medical professionals were rare in the ancient world. We almost

take them for granted today. But for those in antiquity who suffered

from one ailment or another, their lives were often destined for suf-

fering and to be on the margins. We are not surprised to know that

life spans were much shorter in the ancient world without access to

medicine, proper care, or in some cases sanitary conditions. Despite

all of our advances in medicine, human beings are still subject to

death. We have not conquered that, but only delayed it.

Jesus’ own power is expressed by stories of curing the woman with

the hemorrhage and raising the dead. Jesus restores human beings to

a full, active, and healthy life in one story. He literally raises the

dead to life again in another. If he and his power can do these

things, we should be paying attention. We will find later in the gos-

pel that there is more to his ministry than grand displays of power.

There will be the necessary suffering to death.

Once that aspect of his ministry is revealed, many if not most of his

followers will fall away. It might not be too difficult to imagine

following someone who raises the dead. It’s quite another to see that

same one put to death.

When we encounter moments of pain, suffering, and even the death

of loved ones, it is good to remember that we follow one who seeks

to restore, who seeks to raise the dead to life again. That is our com-

mon Christian hope. -Living Liturgy

Marriage Moments Independence is an important step on the journey to adulthood,

but marriage also requires dependence. I depend on you to keep your

word, to be there when I'm feeling hurt, to watch the kids so I can

have a break. How do you depend on one another?

Parenting Pointers

We inherit both physical and personality traits from our par-

ents. It can be a source of parental pride, but also consternation. Talk

with your child about what strengths and weaknesses they might

have received from you.
