In Hebron, David is hailed as king of all the

tribes of Israel. Jesus is anointed king on the

wood of his cross, a sign of paradox, of defeat

yet final victory. Through his cross

we have passed from darkness

into the kingdom of light.

We invite all Holy Trinity members, their families and their friends to come with their

favorite dish and enjoy a traditional Thanksgiving celebration on Thursday, November 24

at 4pm in Loreto Hall. Please call to make your reservations with Kathy Boats at (678)

your party and the dish you will be bringing to share. There will not be alcoholic bever-

ages allowed because children will be present.

Thanksgiving Dinner Thursday, November 24, 4pm

Today we celebrate The Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, King

of the Universe. Our three readings for this celebration present us

with three very different images of kingship. First we have the

very human King David. In his God-given job description David

was expected to “shepherd my people Israel and … be commander

of Israel” (2 Sam 5:2). David had all the attributes that people look

for in a leader. He was handsome, strong, brave and intelligent.

David and his son, Solomon set the standard against which all

other Kings of Israel were measured.

In his Letter to the Colossians St. Paul gives us an image of the

Resurrected Jesus in his glory. He presents Jesus as “the image of

the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For in him were

created all things in heaven and on earth, the visible and the invisi-

ble, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers; all

things were created through him and for him. He is before all

things, and in him all things hold together” (Col 1:15-17). This is

the image of a Divine king.

St. Luke, however, presents us with an image of kingship that is

tragic, painful and shocking. Our King, Jesus Christ, hangs on a

cross between two criminals. Robed of all dignity, this king is

sneered at, jeered and reviled. This is not the image of a king that

most people expected in Biblical times or expect today. But Jesus

on the cross is an eternal reminder of the profound love God has

for us. This is a king who sacrificed his life for us. To many peo-

ple in the world none of this makes any sense. In 1 Corinthians 1

St. Paul wrote that the “message of the cross is foolishness” and a

“stumbling block.” The good news for those of us deemed foolish

is that “the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom, and

the weakness of God is stronger than human strength” (1 Cor.:25).

And so as we celebrate this Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ,

King of the Universe we should remember that our king is the King

of the lowly, the outcast and the poor. And that the first citizen of

the Kingdom of Christ was good thief!

God our Father, lover of people,

help us recognize our King

in Jesus crowned with thorns

and enthroned on a cross.

With him help us choose

love as our only power

and humble service as our only greatness.

May this be the way his kingdom grows among us,

until you lead us to your lasting joy.

We ask you this through Christ our Lord.

Amen.
