RESPONSORIAL PSALM: I LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU, LORD, MY
STRENGTH.
I love you. Lord, my strength,
my rock, my fortress, my saviour.
My God is the rock where I take refuge;
my shield, my mighty help, my stronghold.
The Lord is worthy of all praise:
when I call I am saved from my foes. R.
Long life to the Lord, my rock!
Praised be the God who saves me.
He has given great victories to his king
and shown his love for his anointed. R.
Loving as God Loves
Today is the 30th Sunday in Ordinary Time and just as
we enter into the final phase of the Ordinary Time, the
Scripture Readings of today remind us of what is most
important. It is the commandment to love. The First
Reading from the Book of Exodus assures us of the
Lord’s compassionate stance for the needy and
vulnerable. He cares for the foreigners, the widows and
orphans, and the poor. He defends them because of his
merciful nature as God. Just as the Lord is kind and
merciful to the poor and needy among us, so must we
be. The Second Reading from St Paul's 1st Letter to the
Thessalonians illustrates the dynamics of love at work in
the early Christian community in Thessalonica. Having

(Chair)
experienced the saving love of Christ preached and
witnessed to them by St. Paul and his companions, they
opened their hearts to the Gospel and imitated their
Christian example. Moreover, the life that they lived by
the power of the Holy Spirit enabled them to spread
their loving faith in God to surrounding places. In the
Gospel Reading from St. Matthew, Jesus is asked for the
greatest of the commandments. He does not say that it is
'love of God' alone, but adds 'love of neighbour' to it. Jesus
gives them both. He is asked for one commandment and
answers with two. Perhaps an indication that He saw
them as one and the same thing. To love God is to love
one's neighbour. One cannot claim to love God and not
care for others. By radically connecting the love of God
with the love of neighbour, Jesus brings in a new
teaching.
It is God who first loves us and that makes us able to
love ourselves and therefore to be grateful for the gift of
ourselves. This awareness of life as gift is what we mean
by loving God. We cannot love ourselves without being
grateful to God, and it is this gratitude to God that sets
us free really to love other people. Too often the value
that we place upon others is tied up with what they can
do for us - 'What is their value to me?' Truly loving one's
neighbour entails valuing them as gifts of God. Not only
are we gifts of God, and our neighbours gifts of God,
but the love with which we love ourselves and others is
the expression of our love for God.

How Can I Keep From Singing
My life flows on in endless song
Above Earth's lamentation
I hear the real though far-off hymn
That hails a new creation
Refrain:
No storm can shake my inmost calm
While to that rock I'm clinging
Since love is Lord of heaven and earth
How can I keep from singing
Above the tumult and the strife
I hear its music ringing
It sounds an echo in my soul
How can I keep from singing R
DISMISSAL:
On Eagle’s Wings M. Joncas (c) NDM
1. You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord,
who abide in his shadow for life,
say to the Lord: “My refuge,
my rock in whom I trust!”R
And he will raise you up on eagle’s wings,
bear you on the breath of dawn,
make you to shine like the sun,
and hold you in the palm of his hand.
2. The snare of the fowler will never capture you,
and famine will bring you no fear:
under his wings your refuge,
his faithfulness your shield. R
3. You need not fear the terror of the night,
nor the arrow that flies by day;
though thousands fall about you,
near you it shall not come. R Copyright ©Lic No. 88E
