Teach me wisdom and knowledge. (Psalm 119:66)

From Father Walter

“You know that guy whose

house is on the corner?"

"Oh yeah, I know him:" How

often do we say, "I know"

when what we mean is. "I've heard of him" or "I've seen him a few

times"? Actually; we know only the most superficial things about

"that guy." It can be a little like that with what we "know" about

God, too. That is why the above psalm is so important: "Lord,-

teach me" (Psalm 119:65-66). However much or little we know

about God, there is always more we can learn!

Actually; the best way to know about God is to come to know him

personally. Just as there is a big difference between knowing

about "that guy" and becoming his friend, the same is true for the

Lord. When you know someone personally, you know so much

more than the data about her: You know how she feels about

things, what makes her sad or happy, and why she likes the kind

of music or movies she likes. Probably the biggest difference,

however, is that you know what she thinks about you---because

you matter to her and because she has shared her heart with you.

Similarly, we can agree that God is all-wise, but how can we know

His wisdom unless He gives it to us? How can we know what He

treasures unless we ask Him to share His heart with us? That's

why God invites us every day to sit quietly with Him and ponder

his word.

The idea of sitting and doing nothing can run contrary to common

sense.' It seems so wasteful and difficult when there are so many

things to do! But this kind of quiet listening - and waiting-is vital.

As the German philosopher Josef Pieper famously said, leisure is

the basis of culture, for without it, we fall into the trap of "work for work's sake." If we don't

take the time to sit in wonder at God and his beautiful creation, we'll never hear his still, small

voice whispering words of love, wisdom, and guidance.

So try to sit still today and pursue wisdom. Delight in the Lord, and seek to know him more.

Let him fill you up!

"Lord, as I sit quietly with you today, give me wisdom. Let me know more of who you are!”

THE PSALMS

Psalms Can Help You Pray

The Psalms show us the Old Testament community of faith relating openly and honestly to

the God of Israel. They therefore include important principles of effective prayer for believers

today.

The book of Psalms served as both hymnal and prayer book for ancient Israel. It was the

record of how the chosen nation once worshiped and prayed to their God. Prayer is one of

the most important — and sometimes most difficult — things we learn to do. It is important,

because it is an opportunity to talk to God. It is sometimes difficult, though, because it can

seem to be an awkward and one-sided conversation.

"One day Jesus was praying in a certain

place. When he finished, one of his disciples

said to him, ‘Lord, teach us to pray, just as

John taught his disciples’" (Luke 11:1).

It was the same in New Testament times.

"Teach us to pray," a disciple once asked

Jesus (Luke 11:1). They were used to the

formal, congregational prayers of the temple

and synagogue. Unlike Jesus, the religious leaders of the day did not emphasize

spontaneous, personal prayer.

Yet the disciples noticed that Jesus seemed to be able to pray at any time and place. The

disciples wanted to be able to talk to God like that. You probably do, too. But perhaps when

you try, you don’t know what to say. Your attention wanders. You get up feeling your prayers

have gone no higher than the ceiling.

The Psalms can help. The book of Psalms can be one of the most effective tools in building

your relationship with God. If you feel your prayer life is in decline, read the Psalms. They are

the emotional outpourings of people in many different situations. Other books of the Bible

give us a historical record of Israel’s relationship with God. Psalms gives us a more intimate

look. It is like learning about an event by reading the personal correspondence between the

main participants. We begin to appreciate not only what happened, but also the emotions of

those involved. This is what makes Psalms helpful as we build our relationship with God.

September 20, 2015

Seventy-three of the Bible’s 150 psalms are attributed to David, whom God called "a man

after my own heart" (Acts 13:22). (Other writers include Moses, Heman the Ezrahite, Ethan

the Ezrahite, Solomon, Asaph and the sons of Korah. Several of them do not come with any

credit.)David was a gifted poet and musician, and Israel’s greatest king. He lived life to the

full, made mistakes, reaped the pain and the suffering, and got deeply discouraged. But

David loved God, and even in those moments of agony and despair he continued talking to

Him.

There are times when we all need to talk

about our problems with a close friend to

help put them in perspective. This is

exactly what David did with God. He

was not afraid to express his emotions

— fear, sorrow, hope, anxiety, joy,

longing and even frustration, impatience

and anger. In the Psalms, David poured

out his heart to God. When we meditate on these inspirational prayers, we will see that, in

the end, David always found strength and comfort in God and was able to express hope and

trust in Him.

The psalms of David, and the book of Psalms in general, can invigorate your prayers with

real, down-to-earth expressions that reflect your own thoughts. You’ll think: That’s exactly

what I want to say! It’s reassuring to know that other people have had your problems. God

inspired and preserved these prayers and songs so that you, too, could know how to talk to

him.

Here are some important principles from the Psalms to help you pray more effectively:

1) Don’t be afraid to say what’s on your mind. You should always approach God

respectfully, and it is always appropriate to praise him. Some psalms are for periods of joy,

when you want to praise your Creator or give thanks to him. Others help in those times of

depression when you are going through a severe trial. Still other psalms are confessions of

sin and requests for forgiveness. As the apostle John said, “If we confess our sins, [Jesus

Christ] is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness”

(1 John 1:9). There are times when you are filled with hope and enthusiasm. You feel close

to God, and you appreciate what he has done for you. This is how David felt when he wrote

Psalm 65. (Note also Psalms 66 and 67.)

But he didn’t always pray like this. For example, look at Psalms 54, 56, 57 and 59. On these

occasions, David was in trouble, and he wasted no time in asking for help. On other

occasions, David even asked God to hurry up and help him (Psalms 70:1, 5; 38:22; 40:13,

17; 143:7). Once, David actually asked God if he had forgotten him (Psalm 13:1-2). Similarly,

you should not be afraid to tell God precisely what’s on your mind. And like David, you can

urge God to intervene in your life.

September 20, 2015

Many people are surprised by how boldly the psalmists speak to God. They do not hesitate

to confront him with their everyday problems, to verbalize their frustration, their anger, their

resentment or their despair. But that is how God wants us to be when we talk with him —

open, honest, not pulling any punches. Because of the honesty expressed by the psalmists,

men and women throughout history have come, again and again, to the book of Psalms for

comfort during times of struggle and distress. And with the psalmists, they have risen from

the depths of despair to new heights of joy and praise as they also discovered the power of

God’s everlasting love and forgiveness.

2) Don’t hide your mistakes. Some people feel

awkward about praying, especially after they have

made a big mistake. Or perhaps they have not

prayed for a long time, and they think they aren’t

worthy of God’s love and acceptance.

At times such as these, it is reassuring to read

Psalm 51, written when David had sinned about

as badly as anyone in the Bible. After committing

adultery with Bathsheba, David had her husband

Uriah killed (see 2 Samuel 11). David’s actions

were especially repulsive to God because, as king of Israel, he should have been the moral

leader of the nation.

But when David recognized his sin, he went to God in humility and genuine repentance,

asking for forgiveness. And God heard. David knew he was a sinner, and asked God to help

keep him from continuing to sin. Another time David prayed, "Forgive my hidden faults. Keep

your servant also from willful sins" (Psalm 19:12-13).

In the same way, we should admit our sins to God. When we confess, God "is faithful and

just and will forgive our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness" (1 John 1:9).

3) Wait for God’s answer. Prayer is a spiritual act of

worship in which we share our most intimate thoughts with

God the Father (Luke 11:2), through Jesus Christ his Son.

It is not a magic formula for getting everything we want

exactly when we want it (see James 4:3). Of course, we

should make our requests known to God (Philippians 4:6),

but we should not expect God to answer our prayers our

way every time.

David’s prayers were not always answered right away.

God was working with him across a lifetime, and the

relationship was not casual or superficial.

Although God will give you the "desires of your heart" (Psalm 37:4), there are also lessons to

be learned in enduring a trial, for example. Sometimes we must wait in faith for God to

September 20, 2015

answer in his way and in his time. Psalms gives some fascinating glimpses into the minds of

people as they endured trials of their faith.

In Psalm 73, the author, Asaph, expresses anger and impatience at what seems like God’s

indifference. He even wonders if living God’s way is worth it (verse 13). God allows this,

because as Asaph sorts out his churning emotions, he calms down and his faith and

patience is restored (verses 21-26). You’ll find another example of a prayer changing a

negative mood in Psalm 10.

God knows that we have emotions. We do not always have to appear before him cool, calm

and collected. A relationship with God is a learning process. Sometimes we need to be

guided through life’s trials and tribulations, not just "airlifted out" of every situation. This is a

vital part of our spiritual growth. During such times of stress, God will help us sort out our

negative thoughts and emotions, and give us a peace of mind that "transcends all

understanding" (Philippians 4:7).

Never be afraid to pray openly and honestly to God, even

during the darkest hours of your life. But be willing — and

prepared — to wait for God’s answer in God’s time.

Remember, also, that God’s answer may be no. For example,

Paul told the church at Corinth: "To keep me from becoming

conceited...there was given me a thorn in my flesh...to

torment me" (2 Corinthians 12:7). Paul explained: "Three

times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he

said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is

made perfect in weakness’" (verses 8-9).

We don’t know what Paul’s thorn in the flesh was, but it hindered his ministry and he asked

God to remove it. God refused. Paul acknowledged that this "thorn" kept him humble (verse

7). It reminded him of his daily need for contact with God.

So, while we should present our requests urgently and fervently to God, we must wait

patiently while God decides how and when he will answer. As David said, "Be strong and

take heart and wait for the Lord" (Psalm 27:14).

4) Have confidence in the outcome. When everything

around us seems to be falling apart, it’s hard to walk by faith.

But that’s exactly what Christians are called to do (2

Corinthians 5:7). David told God, "Though I walk in the midst

of trouble, you preserve my life" (Psalm 138:7). He learned

that no matter how bad things looked, God would eventually

assert his will and control.

God will never forsake those who trust him (Psalm 9:10). Even

so, there will be times when we will feel rejection, humiliation,

frustration and all the emotional weather of an active and spiritually rich human life.

September 20, 2015

The Psalms can help us understand this, as we share the intimate thoughts of servants of

God who have gone before us. They help us talk to God as a friend. They remind us of what

we tend to forget when we are discouraged and temporarily disoriented. They are spiritual

levees that control the flood of negative emotions and worry, guiding it along safe channels,

where it can be dissipated safely (Psalms 32:6; 69:1).

As we build our relationship and friendship with the same God who listened to the prayers of

David and other authors of the Psalms, we will also grow in courage and faith. We will feel

confident in asking, "May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing

in your sight" (Psalm 19:14). Like David, we can look beyond the immediate situation and

realize "there is a future for the man of peace" (Psalm 37:37).

Facts About the Psalms

The book of psalms is a collection of 150 lyric poems. A lyric

poem is defined as “that which directly expresses the individual

emotions of the poet”.

Unlike our modern poetry, which is designed to rhyme, Hebrew

poetry is characterized by a rhythmic arrangement of thought

patterns. This is called parallelism. Scholars distinguish several types of parallelism.

There is, for instance, synonymous parallelism. This is where a thought is uttered; then,

the same idea is expressed again in slightly different terms.

O Jehovah my God, in thee do I take refuge:

Save me from all them that pursue me, and deliver me (7:1).

There is also antithetic parallelism in which the second line is set in contrast to the previous

line.

For Jehovah knoweth the way of the righteous;

But the way of the wicked shall perish (1:6).

It is interesting to note that some of the Psalms are arranged acrostically, i.e., in various

forms they are designed to flow with the Hebrew alphabet (cf. 37; 119). For example, in

Psalm 119 each section of eight verses begins with a sequential letter of the Hebrew

alphabet. This arrangement may have been intended to facilitate memorization.

Over the centuries, Bible scholars have debated over categorizing the psalms. They fall into

these general types of hymns: laments, praise, thanksgiving, celebrations of God’s law,

wisdom and expressions of confidence in God. Further, some pay tribute to Isreal’s royalty

while others are historical or prophetic.

The book of Psalms had an immense influence on New Testament writers. They have many

quotes from several Old Testament books, but none more so than from Psalms. From the

Psalms, they drew on the wealth of material that God had inspired pertaining to Jesus Christ.

September 20, 2015

Jesus loves the Psalms. With His dying breath, He quoted Psalm 31:5 from the cross: “father

into your hands I commit my spirit”. (Luke 23:46)

The 150 psalms are much more than beautiful literary compositions. The greatest benefits to

the seeker of truth from the book of Psalms are not found in its construction or musical

origins, but the timeless and uplifting truths it offers to people of every nation and age.

Eternal truths are written in a form that challenges the human intellect and touches the

human heart. The words, phrases, lines and sentences with their recurring thoughts are able

to teach us and reach us in ways that few things can. This is the book of Psalms’ greatest

appeal.

Nearly all of life’s important questions are addressed in these

150 psalms:

How to remain godly in the face of great trials.

Questions about the injustices of the world.

Dealing with depression and despair.

Facing our own mortality at the end of our lives.

Why God allows suffering.

Repentance, forgiveness, mercy and the reconciliation of the whole world to God.

The glory and grandeur of God.

The book of Psalms is certainly a section of the Holy Scriptures that has much to offer any

student of the Word of God. In its 150 messages there is encouragement, instruction,

inspiration, truth and solutions to the great issues facing mankind. The needs of the human

heart and mind are cared for in this unique book.

Over the next several weeks, we shall study the 150 psalms more closely and hopefully

benefit from the great source of godly inspiration they provide.

A Sanctuary Light burns eternally to indicate the presence of Jesus in the Holy

Eucharist in the Tabernacle. It is a marvelous thing that we can actually be in His presence!

"O God, O Creator, O Spirit of Life overwhelming Your creatures with ever new graces! You

grant to Your chosen ones the gift which is ever renewed: the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ!

"O Jesus, You instituted this Sacrament, not through any desire to draw some advantage from it

for Yourself, but solely moved by love which has no other measure than to be without measure.

You instituted this Sacrament because Your love exceeds all words. Burning with love for us,

You desired to give Yourself to us and took up Your dwelling in the consecrated Host, entirely

and forever, until the end of time. And You did this, not only to give us a memorial of Your

death which is our salvation, but You did it also, to remain with us entirely and forever."

Saint Basil’s Catechism Program will begin with registration and a

class on Sept. 12th, from 10 to 11:30 a.m. in the auditorium.

The program for the second level is called: “Children of Light” this is

when the students are prepared for the Mystery of Reconciliation

(confession) and to receive the Mystery of the Eucharist with a more

profound understanding of “Receiving Christ”. The program was developed by the Sister

Servants of Mary Immaculate and imbues the Mysteries with a unique Eastern Rite

understanding. Students of any age are welcome to attend to prepare for this Spiritual

milestone.

We teach the “God with Us” program in kindergarten, grade 1 and grades 3-8. It was

developed to interest and engage the students, with the age and maturity of the child in

mind, considering the social, behavioural, and intellectual and maturity level at each

grade level.

We wish to welcome all children to participate in this opportunity to learn about God and

His plan for our salvation, strengthen their faith and understand themselves better.

These years can make a difference in children’s lives; teaching them the values that can

strengthen and sustain them through the difficulties that life may present, teaching them

the power of forgiveness, compassion and mercy, and the understanding that each is

known to God and has a special purpose to fulfil that is unique to that person.

Our wonderful catechists are volunteers who give freely of their time and treasure. Many of

our graduates have returned to teach or assist with classes throughout the years.

If you feel called to teach catechism, please let me know. The catechist’s manual is a

wealth of information and classes to teach the program will be arranged with the

Ukrainian Catholic Religious Education Center.

Registration forms will be at the entrance of the church. Please feel free to call me for

information.

In Christ,

After the North American Beer Festival, all the brewery presidents decided

to go out for a beer. The guy from Corona sits down and says, 'Hey Senor, I

would like the world's best beer, a Corona .' The bartender dusts off a bottle

from the shelf and gives it to him.

The guy from Budweiser says, 'I'd like the best beer in the world, give me

'The King Of Beers', a Budweiser.' The bartender gives him one..

The guy from Coors says, 'I'd like the only beer made with Rocky Mountain

spring water, give me a Coors.' He gets it.

The guy from Molson Canadian sits down and says, 'Give me a Coke.' The

bartender is a little taken aback, but gives him what he ordered.

The other brewery presidents look over at him and ask, 'Why aren't you

drinking a Molson's?'

The Molson Canadian president replies, 'Well, I figured if you guys aren't

drinking beer, neither would I.'
