A blacksmith had a little dog, which used to
sleep when his master was at work, but was
very wide awake indeed when it was time for meals.
One day his master pretended to be disguised at this,
and when he had thrown him a bone as usual, he
said, “What on earth is the good of a lazy cur like
you? When I am hammering away at my anvil, you
just curl up and go to sleep; but no sooner do I stop
for a mouthful of food than you wake up and wag
your tail to be fed.”

Today’s Reflection
Second Sunday of Ordinary Time January 15, 2017
Today’s Gospel JN 1:29-34
John the Baptist’s Testimony to Jesus.
Merciful God,
You call us to be your
disciples to proclaim the
Good News to all we
meet.
You sent us your Holy
Spirit to guide us as we
carry out your sacred
work.
Help us to respond to
your people in need
through the Archbishop’s
Appeal,
Use our ready hearts and
our willing hands to show
them the face of your Son
Jesus. Unite us as one in
mind and heart as we
work together to build
your kingdom.
Bless us as shepherds of
your good will and fill us
with your Spirit’s gifts.
Help us to remember
that, like Peter and
Andrew, James, John,
Mary Magdalen, and like
the mother of your Son
Jesus,
we too are called to be
your Disciples, Sent by
the Spirit! Amen.

J ohn the Baptist saw Jesus coming toward
him and said, "Behold, the Lamb of God,
who takes away the sin of the world. He is the
one of whom I said, 'A man is coming after me
who ranks ahead of me because he existed
before me.' I did not know him, but the reason
why I came baptizing with water was that he
might be made known to Israel." John testified
further, saying, "I saw the Spirit come down like a
dove from heaven and remain upon him. I did not
know him, but the one who sent me to baptize
with water told me, 'On whomever you see the
Spirit come down and remain, he is the one who
will baptize with the Holy Spirit.' Now I have seen
and testified that he is the Son of God."
HOW TO FIND HEALING
IN THE CATHOLIC MASS
I n every Mass, we hear the
presiding priest say the
words of John the Baptist
that are quoted in this Sunday's
Gospel message: "Behold, the
Lamb of God, who takes away
the sin of the world." To which
we reply: "Lord, I am not
worthy … but say the word and
my soul shall be healed."
This healing began at the
beginning of Mass in the
Penitential Rite if we had a
sincere attitude of repentance.
With this healing, we receive
Jesus in all of his humanity and
divinity. With this healing, we
leave church ready to be like
John the Baptist, testifying by
word and by the way we live
that "now I have seen that Jesus
is the Son of God."
Is Mass that kind of experience
for you?
All parts of the Mass contribute
to this. Jesus is present in the
community as we unite in song.
Jesus is present in the
Penitential Rite, listening to our
sincerity. Jesus is present in the
Liturgy of the Word: the Word
read and the Word broken open
like bread to nourish our
spiritual growth, and when the
homily is poor or absent, his
Spirit preaches to us privately
(straying thoughts are often an
action of God). And Jesus is
present in all the prayers: the
ones we offer and those of the
clergy.

Second Sunday of Ordinary Time January 15, 2017
All of Mass is meant to
transform us, prepare us, and
send us out from church as
witnesses of the true presence
of Christ in our world.
Like John the Baptist, we can
say: "I did not know him." In
other words: "I saw only bread
and wine" and "I was sinful and
didn't realize the damage I had
done" and "I was wounded and
did not know how to be
healed."
And like John we can add:
"Now I have seen and testified
that he is the Son of God. The
Holy Spirit revealed to me the
presence of my Savior in the
Eucharist. The Holy Spirit
gently exposed my sinfulness
and gave me help in
overcoming them. The Holy
Spirit leads me to the resources
that are healing my wounds."
Questions for Personal
Reflection:
What is the experience of Mass
like for you? If you could attend
Mass daily, would you? If not,
why not? If it's a scheduling
problem, will you ask Jesus to
change your schedule? If it's a
priority problem, will you ask
the Holy Spirit to increase in
you a desire to sit in the true
Eucharistic presence of your
Savior?
Questions for Community
Faith Sharing:
Describe a time when you
became more aware of Jesus in
the Mass. Prior to this
development, what distracted
you from noticing his presence?
What changed? Why? How?
