We turn to the second part of this epistle. In the first 8 chapters, we\u2019ve pondered what it means to be justified before God and how the Holy Spirit seeks to bring that about. Chapters 9-11 are about God\u2019s plan for the justification of the Jews, particularly those who \u2014 unlike Mary, Mary Magdalene, the disciples and apostles \u2014 have rejected Jesus as Messiah. Unfortunately, however, the Church gives us only two days to ponder these three important chapters! St. Paul describes his suffering for the Jews: \u201cI speak the truth in Christ, I do not lie; my conscience joins with the Holy Spirit in bearing me witness that I have <em>great sorrow and constant anguish in my heart<\/em>. For I could wish that I myself were accursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my own people, my kindred according to the flesh.\u201d Just like Christ died for us, St. Paul was willing even to be cut off from Christ that the Jews come to salvation, so much did he love them. His heart was filled with anguish and sorrow because of their state, even though some of them were seeking to kill him as others had plotted \u2014 with all sinners of all time \u2014 to kill Christ. He loved them with the heart of Christ. He pondered all that God had given them: descendancy from Jacob, adoption as God\u2019s children, his holy shekinah or glory, the covenants (with Noah, Abraham, Moses, David), the law, the worship at the Temple written out by him in Leviticus, the promises, the patriarchs and the genealogy of the Messiah. But his heart was filled with anguish because despite all that preparation, they had not embraced the fulfillment in Christ, in whom there is filiation, glory, the new and eternal covenant, the Legislator, true worship and the down payment on all God\u2019s promises and all the hopes God had given the Jews. This anguish is what led him to become all things to all people, including to his fellow Jews, so that each might come to Christ. Later in these three chapters he will describe God\u2019s plans for the salvation of the Jews, and it\u2019s fundamentally, through seeing God\u2019s goodness working among the Gentiles, they might come to embrace it and be saved. Paul \u2014 and God! \u2014 wishes all of us have a similar anguish of heart for the salvation of others, the anguish that beat in Paul\u2019s heart and in Christ\u2019s Sacred Heart.<\/li>\n<li>We see a similar anguish in Jesus in the Gospel and it led Jesus to urgent action.\u00a0Jesus wouldn\u2019t wait until the following day to heal the man with dropsy, because the Sabbath day in particular was a day of the love of God and the love of neighbor. He also expressed his sorrow at the way so many of the Scribes and Pharisees had distorted the notion of the Sabbath. Various of them began to conspire to get Jesus murdered precisely because of the \u201cwork\u201d he did on the Sabbath, healing people, freeing them of infirmities, as if concrete acts of love toward others would displease God on the Lord\u2019s Day. Jesus sought to help his listeners see that if something dear to them \u2014 a child, an animal \u2014 had fallen into a cistern, was injured, was in danger of drowning, they would immediately act. That\u2019s the urgency with which he acts for us and our salvation, because he cares for us more than a parent cares for a child or a farmer cares for his animals. His heart is filled with anguish and sorrow when we suffer and he acts with urgency out of the love that is most fit for the Sabbath. There\u2019s a great lesson we learn from this. Many times we can procrastinate on charity toward our neighbor because\u00a0they really don\u2019t concern us, because we really don\u2019t love them. Today\u2019s reading calls us to allow Jesus to love us and to love others with the same urgency, making every day, to some extent, a day of the Lord.<\/li>\n<li>This type of anguish is essential to the life of the Church. The Church\u2019s\u00a0Pastoral\u00a0Constitution on the Church in the Modern World, entitled\u00a0<em>Gaudium et Spes, <\/em>begins: \u201c<em>Gaudium et spes, luctus et angor hominum huius temporis, pauperum praesertim et quorumvis afflictorum, gaudium sunt et spes, luctus et angor etiam Christi discipulorum, nihilque vere humanum invenitur, quod in corde eorum non resonate<\/em>,\u201d which can be translated, \u201cThe joys and the hopes, the griefs and the anxieties of the men of this age, especially those who are poor or in any way afflicted, these are the joys and hopes, the griefs and anxieties of the followers of Christ; indeed, nothing genuinely human fails to raise an echo in their hearts.\u201d I\u2019d just like to pull out those words \u201cluctus et angor,\u201d because those are precisely taken from St. Paul today, the sorrow and anguish, because that \u2014 with the joy and hope that comes from the Gospel \u2014 are how we as Christians are supposed to respond pastorally to the world. That\u2019s what leads us to urgent action.<\/li>\n<li>Someone who got and lived these lessons is the holy one we celebrate today. St. Martin de Porres (1579-1639) was a Dominican lay brother in Peru, who because he was the mulatto son of a Spanish knight and a black freed-woman, experienced various sufferings out of racism growing up. But filled with love for Christ and his neighbor, he eventually entered the Order of Preachers and served as their barber, surgeon, wardrobe-keeper and infirmarian. He wanted to bring God\u2019s love outside the monastery, too, and extend the care he was giving to his Dominican brothers to everyone else, as if all of Lima were his monastery. He cared for the sick. He helped establish an orphanage and foundling-hospital. He distributed the convent\u2019s alms each day of food to the poor and sometimes, with God\u2019s help, multiplied it. He cared for all the slaves brought to Peru from Africa. He went out after the lost sheep and trained people in the same care of the poor so that together with them they could\u00a0dramatically help the poor in their circumstances. He\u2019s the patron saint of social justice because he was giving not just out of charity, but out of a sense that the poor are owed better than what they normally receive.\u00a0Because Christ valued them so much, he wanted to value them at that same level and help them recognize their own dignity. He saw Christ in each of them and sought to give Christ what he deserved. He was filled with sorrow and anguish at their suffering and, with the Lord\u2019s help, sought to do what he can.<\/li>\n<li>Today at this Mass, Jesus wants to inspire us with urgency, with holy sorrow and anguish, so that we might go out to fulfill his plan of salvation for everyone so that they might come to experience the fullness of his love and be healed of whatever keeps them from rejoicing forever in the eternal Lord\u2019s day. Let us pray that we may cooperate as fully as the saint we celebrate today!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>The readings for today\u2019s Mass were:\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"bibleReadingsWrapper\">\n<h4>Reading 1\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.usccb.org\/bible\/romans\/9:1\">ROM 9:1-5<\/a><\/h4>\n<div class=\"poetry\">Brothers and sisters:<br \/>\nI speak the truth in Christ, I do not lie;<br \/>\nmy conscience joins with the Holy Spirit in bearing me witness<br \/>\nthat I have great sorrow and constant anguish in my heart.<br \/>\nFor I could wish that I myself were accursed and cut off from Christ<br \/>\nfor the sake of my own people,<br \/>\nmy kindred according to the flesh.<br \/>\nThey are children of Israel;<br \/>\ntheirs the adoption, the glory, the covenants,<br \/>\nthe giving of the law, the worship, and the promises;<br \/>\ntheirs the patriarchs, and from them,<br \/>\naccording to the flesh, is the Christ,<br \/>\nwho is over all, God blessed forever.
