November 1, 2015 I VE BEEN THINKING God s Mercy From Pope Francis (6) It is proper to God to exercise mercy, and he manifests his omnipotence particularly in this way.[5] Saint Thomas Aquinas words show that God s mercy, rather than a sign of weakness, is the mark of his omnipotence. For this reason the liturgy, in one of its most ancient collects, has us pray: O God, who reveal your power above all in your mercy and forgiveness [6] Throughout the history of humanity, God will always be the One who is present, close, provident, holy and merciful. Patient and merciful. These words often go together in the Old Testament to describe God s nature. His being merciful is concretely demonstrated in his many actions throughout the history of salvation where his goodness prevails over punishment and destruction. In a special way the Psalms bring to the fore the grandeur of his merciful action: He forgives all your iniquity, he heals all your diseases, he redeems your life from the pit, he crowns you with steadfast love and mercy (Ps 103:3-4). Another Psalm, in an even more explicit way, attests the concrete signs of his mercy: He executes justice for the oppressed; he gives food to the hungry. The Lord sets the prisoner free; the Lord opens the eyes of the blind. The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down; the Lord loves the righteous. The Lord watches over the sojourners, he upholds the widow and the fatherless; but the way of the wicked he brings to ruin (Ps 146:7-9). Here are some other expressions of Psalmist: He heals the brokenhearted, and binds up their wounds The Lord lifts up the downtrodden, he casts the wicked to the ground (Ps 147:3, 6). In short, the mercy of God is not an abstract idea, but a concrete reality with which he reveals his love as that of a father or a mother, moved to the very depths out of love for their child. It is hardly an exaggeration to say that this is a visceral love. It gushes forth from the depths naturally, full of tenderness and compassion, indulgence and mercy. (7.) For his mercy endures forever. This is the refrain that repeats after each verse in Psalm 136 as it narrates the history of God s revelation. By virtue of mercy, all the events of the Old Testament are replete with profound salvific import. Mercy renders God s history with Israel a history of salvation. To repeat continually for his mercy endures forever, as the psalm does, seems to break through the dimensions of space and time, inserting everything into the eternal mystery of love. It is as if to say that not only in history, but for all eternity man will always be under the merciful gaze of the Father. It is no accident that the people of Israel wanted to include this psalm the Great Hallel, as it is called in its most important liturgical feast days. Before his Passion, Jesus prayed with this psalm of mercy. Matthew attests to this in his Gospel when he says that, when they had sung a hymn (26:30), Jesus and his disciples went out to the Mount of Olives. While he was instituting the Eucharist as an everlasting memorial of himself and his paschal sacrifice, he symbolically placed this supreme act of revelation in the light of his mercy. Within the very same context of mercy, Jesus entered upon his passion and death, conscious of the great mystery of love that he would consummate on the Cross. Knowing that Jesus himself prayed this psalm makes it even more important for us as Christians, challenging us to take up the refrain in our daily lives by praying these words of praise: for his mercy endures forever. The Jubilee of Mercy begins on Dec. 8 and continues until the Feast of Christ The King on Nov. 20, What a beautiful theme and what beautiful thoughts from Pope Francis! Peace & Love,
