Thirty-first Sunday in Ordinary Time

Mark 12:28B-34




*Friends, our Gospel features what the ancient Israelites referred to as
the shema: "Hear, O Israel, the Lord your God is Lord alone." Could I
invite everyone to make an examination of conscience on the basis of the
shema? Is God the one Lord of your life? Who or what are his rivals for
your attention, for your ultimate concern? Or, to turn the question around:
Does absolutely everything in your life belong to God? But people might
ask: How do we give ourselves to a reality that we cannot see? This is
where the second command of Jesus comes into play. When asked which is the
first of all the Commandments, Jesus responded with the shema, but then he
added something to the tradition: a second command, namely, "You shall love
your neighbor as yourself." There is a strict logic at work here. When you
really love someone, you tend to love, as well, what they love. Well, what
does God love? He loves everything and everyone that he has made. So, if
you want to love God, and you find this move difficult because God seems so
distant, love everyone you come across for the sake of God.*
