p o p h o u s t o nThirty-thirdSundayinOrdinaryTime .org Nov.16,2014 November16,2014 Thirty-thirdSundayinOrdinaryTime Catholics Should Corner the Market on Gratitude BySefanitMekonnen,NewEvangelizationMinistry The other day, I had the opportunity to spend the day with my friend, Sr. Josephine, who was in town visiting her family. She is a novice with the Sisters of the Holy Family of Nazareth and we had the blessing of being able to catch up. After I had talked her ear off about what the Lord has been doing in my life and in my heart, I took a sip of my coffee and said, “Ok, enough about me; tell me about you. How are you doing? How’s the convent life!?” She suddenly got very emotional and could barely continue. Through the tears she began to try to express in very insuf icient words how incredibly grateful she was for the gift that God has given her. Her gratitude was so great and so deep, she couldn’t even begin to describe it. This is a woman who left a career as vice-president for Bank of America to follow Jesus with total and complete reckless abandon – shouldn’t Jesus be the one that is grateful? Or at the very least, shouldn’t we, the Church, and we, His body, be the thankful ones for a life given in our service? But, here she was before me, nearly undone at trying to share how grateful she was for the opportunity to be the Lord’s Beloved as a consecrated sister. If your family is anything like my family, Thanksgiving is always a time of busyness and hurried activity. There’s just so much to do! Every year my mom and dad are busy trying to get the house ready for all of us to descend upon it. The feast needs to be prepped and cooked, the baking needs to be done. Though it’s always a lot of fun, I’m not always sure how much giving of thanks is happening during Thanksgiving. Sure it’s nice that we always go around the table before we eat and share what we’re thankful for, but I think there’s more. Thisyear,IencourageeachofustoaskGod foralittlebitofthatspiritofgratitudethat Sr.Josephinewassodeeplyexperiencing. Afterall,asCatholics,asaEucharisticpeople, weshouldcornerthemarketongratitude! Ok, lashback to second-grade religion class for a second. Did you know that the word “Eucharist” means “thanksgiving”. So when we gather at Mass to share in the Eucharist, we gather to offer our thanks to God for everything He has given us. We realize that everything that we have and everything that we are is given from Him as pure gift, and so our irst activity of the week is to say thank you and offer it back as our sacri ice of praise. The next time the priest says the Eucharistic Prayer, listen a bit more carefully. It’s basically a beautiful prayer of thanksgiving to the Father for all that He’s given us; including His greatest gift of all, His very son, Jesus Christ. Not just once 2,000 years ago, but every time you receive the Eucharist, you receive Jesus and you’re able to live in deep friendship with him. Truegratitudeisagrace.Thatis,it’sagift fromGod;afruitofprayer. Don’t get scared by these words. Scripture assures us that God is a good father and he wants to give good gifts to his children! Ask God for this gift. Believe me, it’s much better than asking to lose 10 pounds or ind the perfect dress. I mean, he may answer that prayer, too, but to be honest, I think he’ll be much more pleased when we ask him for the grace to be truly grateful. Whatever your circumstances, ask God for the grace to be grateful for what you have in your life and then thank God for it. Maybe you can ind an hour in your day amidst the hustle and bustle of the Thanksgiving holiday to make it to Mass. Or, maybe all you can manage this year is a prayer of thanksgiving that morning.
