Scripture Reading: 2 Samuel 23:1-7 What people say while they are dying is very significant. They don't talk about the weather or the stock market or the game on television. They talk about eternal matters. David, “the sweet psalmist of Israel,” wrote a song just before he died. The book of Psalms contains 73 Psalms bearing David's name, but this song is found only in the book of 2 Samuel. The content of this song is highly instructive for us. This poem does not contain the ruminations of an old king as he looks back on bygone days of glory and the excitement of “the good old days.” This song is an account of the majesty of the infinite God. David lauds what God had done in his life, namely to take David from the shepherd's field and place him on the throne of Israel and inspire him to write sacred Scripture for the ages (2 Sam 23:1). But outshining the glory of what God had done for David during his life is what God would do through David, long after he was gone. God would raise up a King who would rule in perfect righteousness and the fear of God (2 Sam 23:2-5). In contrast, the unrighteous, God will “thrust away like thorns” which are worthless (2 Sam 23:6,7). How full are our hearts when we consider the majesty of God both in what He has done in our lives and, even more wondrous, in what He will do in the ages to come . . . because of Jesus Christ and His work on our behalf! Do we not declare, with David, that this King is the source of “all our salvation and all our desire” (2 Sam 23:5)? Let us meditate on our Lord until we can honestly say it.
The Solemnity of the Most Holy TrinityThere is a essential link between God (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) and humanity. St Paul outlines in our second reading today this necessary connection through the language of golden chains. Though there is much to say and can be said about the Most Holy Trinity, one of its greatest attributes is unity.Scripture Reading for June 15, 2025Proverbs 8:22-31Psalm 8:4-9Romans 5:1-5John 16:12-15

Scripture Reading: 2 Samuel 24 - (1 Chronicles 21) We know David for his great victories and songs . . . and for his great sins. One rather obscure passage about one of David's sins is 2 Samuel 24 (repeated in 1 Chr 21). David wanted to number his army, but not for the usual reason, which was to fight a war. It seems that David simply wanted to see how many men he had for personal delight (2 Sam 24:3). What he did, displeased the Lord (1 Chr 21:7) and God severely judged the people of Israel (2 Sam 25:15-17). One lesson we can draw from this story is that it warns us not to take pleasure in our strength or victories apart from our delight being firmly and centrally rooted in our God. We can delight in our bank accounts or in the value of our house or in the longevity of our lives or in the attendance in our church or in the number of missionaries we support . . . and find more pleasure in these things than we do in the Giver of these things. We are so programmed to evaluate everything in terms of numbers that we have the tendency to feed our delight more on our accomplishments than on the excellencies of Christ. The subtleties of pride are particularly beguiling when it comes to us in this way. A second lesson from this story is drawn from the fact that this sin of David's pride does not appear to be a “youthful indiscretion.” That this story is found in 2 Samuel 24 indicates that this grievous sin was committed near the end of his reign and life. To be older is no automatic safeguard against sin. We must be ever vigilant, even ruthless, to guard our hearts against pride or greed or lust or sharp tongues. “Your word I have hid in my heart, that I might not sin against You" (Psa 119:11).

Ascension of the LordThere can be a temptation to think Jesus' ascension into heaven was his way of distancing himself physically and spiritually from humanity. Instead, Jesus reminds his disciples that he must go otherwise the Paraclete (Holy Spirit) will not come. Our Catholic Christian faith is rooted in the hope of both the Resurrection and the Ascension of the Lord. May the ascended Lord renew us in our quest to soar like eagles.Scripture Readings for June 1, 2025Acts 1:1-11Psalm 47:2-3, 6-9Hebrews 9:24-28; 10:19-23Luke 24:46-53
Scripture Reading: 2 Samuel 22 (Psalm 18) Someone once said, “There are two main things we need to learn . . . how to live and how to die.” Having conquered the fear of death, in Christ, sometimes it is life which defeats us . . . namely the multiplied sorrows, sicknesses, emotional turmoil, losses, anxieties we all experience. David knew the strains of life intimately. In his song in 2 Samuel 22:5,6 he describes his trouble in the following way . . . “waves of death ... torrents of destruction … cords of Sheol … snares of death." David's experience was filled with heartache. But this song, which is virtually repeated verbatim in Psalm 18, is not a song of despair. It is a hymn of joy and strength. There are many images presented in this song of strength, but two of them are particularly comforting. It is the idea that the Lord is our ‘rock' and our ‘lamp'. When David calls God his ‘rock' (2 Sam 22:2,3,32,47), it is a term implying refuge. For many years, David hid in the caves as he ran from his enemies. To hide in the rocks of Palestine meant safety. David understood, as we must, that God, alone, is security. He is our rock. A second image in this wonderful song (and there are more images) is the idea that God is our ‘lamp' (2 Sam 22:29). The reality of this figure of speech is that God is our guide, showing us the way to live. He enlightens the darkness of doubt and confusion and spiritual ignorance. May the Lord deeply teach us that Christ, alone, is our security that we might know safety in our souls. And may we learn that Christ, alone, is our light, that we may have understanding as we live our days.
