A Vocation View
Today’s readings teach us that true happiness, or beatitude, lies in the awareness of who we are and of what we are supposed to do. They remind us that we are all children of a loving Heavenly Father and that we will be happy in this world and in Heaven only when we share our blessings with our brothers and sisters in need and work to uplift them.
Matthew presents the beatitudes as coming at the beginning of the Sermon on the Mount. In Luke's version (today’s gospel), Jesus stands on a plain and states the beatitudes in more compact and radical terms. Luke’s “Sermon on the Plain” is shorter than Matthew’s “Sermon on the Mount,” the latter extending through three chapters. Matthew gives eight beatitudes (the ninth being an explanation of the eighth), while Luke gives four “beatitudes” and four “woes."
The eight beatitudes Jesus gives in Mathew and the four in Luke contradict the ideas of real happiness found in the Jewish culture and in our modern society, according to which wealth, health, power and influence are the true
r blessings (from the Greek makarios, meaning "blessed" or "happy.")
The first reading tells us that true beatitude consists in placing our trust in God and in putting our trust in His promises. The Responsorial Psalm, (Ps 1), finds beatitude in keeping God’s Law. St. Paul warns us, in the second reading, that true beatitude is obtainable only in Heaven, and that Christ’s Resurrection is our assurance of reaching Heaven for an everlasting life of happiness.
paradoxical blessedness of poverty, hunger, sorrow and persecution because these contradict our natural expectations in every way. “Blessed are those who are poor, hungry, weeping, hated, excluded, insulted and denounced,” because “in poverty - we recognize God’s reign”; “in hunger - His providence”; “in sorrow, true happiness”; and in persecution, true joy.
The beatitudes are Jesus’ commands for how we should live, and what we should do as Christians!
Our Lady Star of the Sea Pray for us
Christ’s resurrection makes our faith fruitful and our lives
worthwhile. Be open to Jesus’ great gift.

Mother Henriette Delille
Did you know that the founder of the Sisters of the Holy Family, based in New Orleans, Louisiana, is among three African American candidates for the sainthood in the Catholic Church? Mother Henriette Delille (duh-LEEL) was born in 1812 as a “free person of color”. At the tender age of age 17, she and two companions began evangelizing the large slave and free-people-of-color populations in New Orleans. Their efforts led to the formation of the nation’s second religious order for women of color in 1842. Its mission: to care for the aged; to instruct the unlearned; and to care for the poor. Her sainthood cause was opened in 1988 and she is recognized by the church as a servant of God.
