Solemnity of All Saints
Matthew 5:1-12A
Friends, today in the Beatitudes we hear a series of paradoxes, surprises,
reversals. A topsy-turvy universe is being set aright. Let me propose a key
for translating these Beatitudes. The word found in all of them is
makarios, rendered "blessed" or "happy" or perhaps even "lucky."
*"Blessed are the poor in spirit...." How lucky you are if you are not
addicted to material things. *Here Jesus is telling us here h*ow to realize
our deepest desire, which is the desire for God.*
*"Blessed are they who mourn...."* We might interpret it this way: *"How
lucky are you if you are not addicted to good feelings." *D*oing the will
of God sometimes involves the acceptance of enormous pain.*
*"Blessed are the meek....*" *One of the greatest seductions the world
holds out to us is power*. But what I ought to do is eschew worldly power, so
that* the power of the will of God might reign in me.*
