It’s said that we never really grow up until both of our parents have died. I suspect that most who have had
to walk that path recognize some truth there. So when the Gospel advises us to turn our back on father and
mother and family and even on ourselves—maybe it’s not about rejecting but about becoming able to live
the gospel more maturely, about releasing our grip on the past and growing up. Maybe letting go of childish
things is the cost and also the wisdom of the God who waits patiently for us.
One of life’s tasks, it seems, is to learn the balancing act between loving without possessiveness and relinquishing without indifference or abandonment. In truth, perhaps we never really learn to balance the two.
We mostly lean in the direction opposite where we are at the time, until we suspect we may have leaned too
far and switch directions. It’s a wisdom we come to that’s worthwhile for parenting but also for marriage
and one’s profession and growing old and just about everything else that life serves up.
This balancing is also at the heart of faith and discipleship. It’s how we come to recognize the hand of God
in our lives, by living in such a way that God has the freedom to rearrange the pieces and so bring us to
fuller life. It’s the wisdom that teaches us how to be a disciple but also the sort of discipleship that brings us
to wisdom. It’s also the light shining forth in today’s reading from the book of Wisdom.

Scripture Insights~
Wisdom can be an elusive element in making human
choices. Each of today’s readings offers perspective on wisdom. The author of the Book of Wisdom begs the question,
―Who can know God’s counsel [wisdom] or who can conceive what the Lord intends?‖ The answer is, of course, no
one. In fact, the author states, even humans are not sure of
their own plans, let alone those of God. But God chooses to
bestow wisdom on people and it is this divine gift that allows
―those on earth‖ to choose wisely.
The wisdom in Jesus’ teaching is twofold. First, those
choosing to follow Jesus need practical wisdom. They will
have to leave behind whatever distractions would hinder them
form accepting the mission he desires for them. They will
need to discern what it will take for them to ―finish the work‖
of discipleship, as workers need to do when completing a construction project.
The second wisdom is a deeper sense of commitment, a
choice that will mean following Jesus as their first priority in
life and relationships. The word hating that appears in the
translation should not be understood in the same sense that we
associate with despising another. Jesus never advocated hatred, always love. He impresses upon his listeners that following him is a radical choice, and will take great spiritual
courage.
In his letter, Paul writes about Gospel wisdom. He appeals
to Philemon, the owner of Onesimus the slave, in the spirit of
brotherhood that comes from the shared mission they have in
Christ Jesus. He implores Philemon to put aside his former
way of relating to Onesimus, as an owner, and to accept him
as he would accept Paul, in a spirit of partnership. The wisdom of God comes to us both as gift and as responsibility.
 How is humility, as expressed in the First Reading, an
aspect of wisdom?
 What helps you to choose wisely in matters of faith?
 How daunting is it to hear Jesus describe discipleship in
such stark terms? Are we up to it?
Fill us at daybreak with your
kindness,
that we may shout for joy
and gladness all our days.
— Psalm 90:14
TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
Sometimes, this ―Treasures‖ column can seem to be a species of crib-notes for Catholic Jeopardy. Indeed, you may
never know when knowledge of our particular vocabulary may
come in handy. Such is the case with papal bulls, which conjure up all sorts of images, but are actually not what you might
expect. A bull is a papal letter on a matter of great consequence, such as a decision about a crisis in the Church, the
declaration of a doctrine, the summoning of a council, or the
canonization of a saint. It has a more solemn intention than a
mere letter or even an encyclical, a teaching letter circulated
through the whole Church. Its odd name comes from the Latin
bulla, which is the stamp used to apply a signatorial design to
the hot lead, or even molten silver or gold, that seals the decree.
The format for the bull is the name of the pope in Latin,
followed by the title ―servant of the servants of God,‖ also in
Latin, and then the text. The title of the bull is always the first
two words of the text. Some famous papal bulls are Exsurge
Domine (Arise, O Lord), written against Martin Luther’s
Ninety-five Theses in 1520; Munificentissimus Deus (The
Most Bountiful God), the promulgation of the dogma of the
Assumption in 1950 by Pope Pius XII; or Humanae Salutis
(Human Salvation), by which Pope John XXIII convened the
Second Vatican Council in 1962.
