January 20, 2019 Second Sunday in Ordinary Time prayer fraternity minority Walk for Life Saturday, January 26 St. Mary s Cathedral, SF Francis: The Journey and the Dream Evening with Fr. Michael OLA School collecting coats and jackets for SVdP Our Lady of Angels CAPUCHIN Franciscan A VISIBLE GOD We find it difficult to convey ideas to people unless we can actually show them something, demonstrate what we mean. God, who is invisible and truly beyond human understanding, apparently faces the same difficulty. People want to see, not just listen to an idea. So God gave us Jesus Christ, God made visible in the world. During these past weeks we have seen how Jesus was revealed as an infant to the shepherds and the magi, and then began his adult public life at his baptism by John. Today s Gospel reading tells us of his first sign, providing wine for the wedding guests at Cana. Of course, even Jesus, God made visible, was not always easily understood in his own day, nor is he even now. So we have to ponder what we see: the poverty and simplicity of his birth, his humility and openness before John the Baptist, his kindness and compassion toward people in their ordinary problems, such as running short of wine at a wedding. Yet it is in coming to know Jesus that we come to know God. Nations shall behold your vindication, and all the kings your glory. 1saiah 62:2 OLAburlingame OLA_Capuchin ola_burlingame www.ola.community
