From the Pastor
Today we are blessed to celebrate the Feast of the
Holy Family and this feast gives us the opportunity to pause
and meditate on the Holy Family and our own families as
well. The Gospel tells us about Mary and Joseph finding Jesus in the Temple after having “lost” him for three days.
Eventually they found him in the Temple sitting among the
teachers listening and asking questions to the amazement of
all present. Upon finding him the scriptures tell us that he
went home with them and was obedient to them. It was in
this simple and secret life of the Holy Family at Nazareth that
Jesus grew “in wisdom and age and favor before God and
man.”
This last line is important for us because it tells us a
few things about God’s design for the family. From this episode until his baptism in the Jordan River by John the Baptist
we don’t hear about Jesus’ formative years, some 18 years
that pass in secret until he turns 30. What we do know is that
he was obedient to his parents and in this obedience he grew
into the man we know as Jesus Christ, the man who would
save the human race from sin and death. From the safety of
his home in Nazareth, surrounded by his family, he grew in
wisdom, age, and favor.
The inspiration and direction we receive is very moving. It tells us that our homes should be a place where we too
can safely grow up in wisdom, age, and favor under the loving and watchful eyes of our parents. No matter our age, Jesus’ time in Nazareth gives us all an example of family life
and the opportunity to reflect on it. Parents, do you demonstrate the holy and chaste love of husband and wife present in
Joseph and Mary? Do your children know that you two are
united in an unbreakable bond of love, a love they will one
day come to imitate through your life-long devotion to one
another (as children grow they will more often than not seek a
spouse modeled after their mother or father)? Do you teach
them wisdom and are your children growing in favor of God
and men? I know that all of us struggle with temptation, sin,
and human brokenness, but parents do have the power to put
God first, then spouse, then children when Christ is the center
of their married life. Even when the union of husband and
wife, mother and father is damaged, Jesus must be the center
of family life.
Children, are you obedient to your parents? Remember that Jesus, even though he is God and can do anything, he
listened to and was obedient to Mary and Joseph. Do you
listen and obey them lovingly and without complaining and
without question? Do you know that most likely the way you
treat your parents will be the way that your own children will
treat you? Is Jesus the center of your life in the home? Until
you grow up and begin to form your own families you must
put God first, then your mother and father, siblings, and finally others. In so doing you will be blessed to begin your
adult lives as Jesus did: full of love and the power and blessings of God the Father.
As we meditate on the joys of the Holy Family at
Nazareth “May you seek to make your homes above all else a
dwelling place of love diffusing far and wide the goodness of
the Lord”.
