This Week in the Bulletin:

Peace for Our World

If we look deeply into today's Gospel, the focus seems to be on peace as a key to healing, and our acceptance of peace as a way of knowing the nearness of the kingdom of God. In fact, to get his message across, Luke asserts twice that the kingdom of God is very near to you! Paul reiterates the same theme to the Galatians. In your being healed, you will become altogether a new creation -peace and mercy to all!
This peace though is a peace that does not ignore the marks of Jesus' crucifixion. It is a peace that embraces the cross, that does not shy away from those times in our lives when our commitment to following the rule of love is put to the test. It is then that we will know the grace of this peace. God's love will not be withheld, says the psalmist.
The prophet Isaiah too portrays this so beautifully in the images of peace flowing like a river, and the suckling infant consoled at the mother's breast. So, might we be comforted this week in the lap of our God, carried by peace, nourished by peace, becoming peace for our world.
