Prayersforthe30thSundayinOrdinaryTime-OCTOBER 27, 2019
Today’s readings remind us that prayer always begins with
an attitude. It does not matter what we’ve done, how much we
have, or who we are. What does matter is what is in our
hearts. The constant message has been that God hears the
cries of the poor. Whatever our circumstances, humility and a
concern for justice matter most. This is either consoling or
challenging, depending on the state of our hearts.
With a spirit of deep humility, let us pray now for our own
deepest needs and for those of our brothers and sisters across
the world.
• For the church: that it may be a model of humility that
shows us how to pray … we pray,
For those who work for peace throughout the world,
especially in the face of con-licting views about how
to achieve peace … we pray,
For the election of a presidential candidate who will
promote policies that re-lect a concern for the poor
and oppressed … we pray,
For the courage to be humble where or when self-
promotion and personal success are valued … we
pray,
For the ability to love and learn from those who strike us
as incomplete, damaged or lacking in some way … we
pray,
For those who are dedicated to praying for or serving the
marginalized or the forgotten … we pray,
For those who have died; and for all who grieve … we
pray.
PRAYER: God who hears the cries of the poor, give
compassion to those who witness suffering. Show us how to
be humble, even when we may be blessed with any kind of
privilege, for we are all sinners. We pray in the name of your
Son, Jesus, the great model of humble prayer. Amen.

HOLY FAMILY PARISH 30TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
30º Dom Tempo Comum (Ano C): Eclo 35,15b-17.20-22a; Sl 34(33); 2Tim 4,6-8.16-18; Lucas 18,9-14
A parábola do fariseu e do publicano é uma lição exemplar, para os que confiam na própria justiça e desprezam os outros. As pessoas subiam ao templo para as orações e as oferendas (At 3,1; Dn 9,21; Sl 141,2), que começavam com a ação de graças pelos benefícios recebidos de Deus. Mas o fariseu, seguidor rigoroso da Lei, agradece sua própria bondade e espera a salvação como recompensa pelas obras realizadas. Revela também uma atitude de juiz diante do publicano, direito reservado a Deus. O publicano, desprezado por ser cobrador de impostos para o império romano, reconhece a necessidade da misericórdia de Deus. Bate no peito em sinal de arrependimento e conversão e implora a compaixão de Deus. Sua oração autêntica mostra que o sacrifício agradável a Deus é um
coração contrito, renovado pela graça (cf. Sl 51). Jesus, que veio manifestar o rosto misericordioso do Pai aos pequenos e excluídos, declara: Este último voltou para casa justificado, pois quem se humilha será exaltado. Deus é um juiz justo, que não faz acepção de pessoas e ouve sempre a oração de seus prediletos, representados aqui pelo pobre, órfão e viúva (1ª leitura). O salmista bendiz o Senhor, que atende os oprimidos. A 2ª leitura apresenta o testemunho de Paulo, no fim de sua missão apostólica: Combati o bom combate, terminei a corrida, guardei a fé. Somos chamados a acolher a justiça e a misericórdia do Pai, que nos impulsiona a tomar consciência do sistema injusto que compartilhamos e assumir uma atitude de conversão e vida nova. Que o ardor missionário de Paulo nos anime a perseverar na fé em meio aos desafios da evangelização. Na celebração, Jesus nos revela o grande mistério da misericórdia do Pai que escuta os corações atribulados e dá vida aos seus servos. Como o publicano, reconheçamos nossa pequenez e a presença de Deus em nossas vidas. Ele nos dá forças e, com certeza, nos liberta de todo mal.
(Extraído do Dia do Senhor) Oração
Deus eterno e todo-poderoso, aumentai em nós a fé, a esperança e a caridade e dai-nos amar o que ordenais para conseguirmos o que prometeis.
Por Cristo, nosso Senhor. Amém. Pe. Jonas D. Christal
