Fourteenth Week in Ordinary Time

Matthew 10:16-23




*Friends, in our Gospel today Jesus assures us that the Holy Spirit will
help us when we face persecution. Speaking to his disciples the night
before he dies, Jesus says that he and his Father will send another
Parakletos (Advocate). That word, stemming from kaleo (to call) and para
(for, or on behalf of), designates something like a lawyer, someone who
would plead on behalf of another, who would support, advocate, encourage.
Jesus is saying that while he will depart physically from the scene, he and
his Father will send the Spirit as a friend. This is the the advocate who
will inspire Christians up and down the ages. When the martyrs went to
their deaths, it was with the help of the Holy Spirit; when the
missionaries went to proclaim the faith in hostile lands, it was the Holy
Spirit who pleaded on their behalf; when Edith Stein went with her Gestapo
captors to Auschwitz, she too went with the Holy Spirit. And that same
Spirit is with you today, right now.*
