From the Desk of.t. Rios Thirtieth Sunday in Ordinary Time October 28, 2018 In the First Reading the people returning from exile hear God speak through his Prophet Jeremiah saying, They departed in tears but I will console them and guide them. I will lead them to brooks of water. Water was a sign of God s attentive and tender love. They are filled with hope as God presents himself as their loving Father. The Second Reading speaks of Christ as high priest. The priests of the Old Testament offered sacrifices for their own sins and those of the people. In Jesus, there was no sin. Jesus was chosen as high priest because of His loving obedience and self giving to God the Father. This reading ends with a line from Psalm 110: 4, You are My Son, this day I have begotten You. This brings to mind our own baptismal priesthood. As a priestly people, we bring others to Christ in the way we lead our lives. In the Gospel story of blind Bartimaeus, we have a parable in action. The crowd tried to silence him but Jesus saw in him the gift of deep faith, a faith that saves. When Bartimaeus was brought to Jesus, he called Jesus Son of David and Master. This was a sign of profound respect. He stood before Jesus with confidence and trust. He asked to be healed. When he received his vision he also had the insight needed for any disciple and he followed Jesus. He didn t just stand there, he sprang up into action. This gospel story has much to teach us.
