    (Amos 9:11-15;   Ps.85:9,11-14;   Mt.9:14-17) “I will bring about the restoration of my people Israel.” Of the city of David, the Lord promises, “I will wall up its breaches, raise up its ruins, and rebuild it as in the days of old.”  Beautiful imagery is given indeed through the prophet Amos to illustrate the renewal of the land now fallen: “The juice of grapes shall drip down the mountains, and all the hills shall run with it.”  Indeed, in His great grace the Lord vows, “Never again shall they be plucked from the land I have given them.”  And so we have prophecy of the New Jerusalem. Our psalm continues such prophecy of the kingdom to come, declaring, “He proclaims peace to His people, and to His faithful ones…  The Lord Himself will give His benefits; our land shall yield its increase.”  Justice and truth shall be known in fullness, even as salvation walks “along the way of His steps.” And these steps have been trodden in our midst.  Jesus is coming and has come, bringing in Himself the new wine of the New Jerusalem, which courses like a river through all this City’s streets.  Indeed His Blood flows in our veins now.  Indeed we become the new wineskins that hold His abundant goodness, and so are lifted to the kingdom of heaven.  John’s disciples do not yet understand.  If the Lord’s own followers have difficulty seeing, it should not be surprising that those who have yet to be baptized in the fire of the Holy Spirit yet find themselves preoccupied with the stipulations of a law that is passing away, a law – so embodied by the Pharisees – which is to be subsumed by the greater Law of love Jesus comes bleeding to bring into our midst. But they shall.  There can be little doubt that these followers of John and his baptism will come, with the Lord’s own disciples, and be washed in the blood that makes all things new.  There is certainty that these, as even some Pharisees, shall “drink the wine” of the New Covenant, even as we do this day. Brothers and sisters, this new wine is upon our altars even this day; before us is set the Blood that washes all clean.  It is for our restoration the Lord provides this feast.  Let us not refrain from partaking what He has died to bring into our midst, but let us be indeed the new wineskins filled with His Word and His Blood, and declare His salvation unto the nations. ******* O LORD, the wine of your Son’s blood renews us; may we be open to receive the blessings He pours upon us. YHWH, you are our salvation; in your Son’s flesh let us take our refuge, of His blood let us partake.  It is in Him we find our peace, in Him that our house, our own flesh, is rebuilt, redeemed for the kingdom to come, for the New Jerusalem.  It is in His walking the earth that truth is known; in Him justice flows down from the heavens.  In His skin let us make our home. Your promise is great, O LORD, the promise of eternal life, the promise of bearing your NAME and so being as you are.  In Jesus we see that promise before our eyes – send your Spirit to fulfill that promise in our poor lives. O LORD, let us be rebuilt; raise us up from our ruins.  It is at your hand we find our food – only by your grace do we live at all.  And so, let us return to you and walk with your Son along the way of salvation.  And so, let us be wed to you as your faithful ones.  In you we place our hope; by you let us be made new.

    (Amos 7:10-17;   Ps.19:8-11;   Mt.9:1-8)  “The Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins.” Amos says of himself in our first reading: “The Lord took me from following the flock, and said to me, Go, prophesy to my people, Israel.”  And so he can say, “Now hear the word of the Lord!”  And so he can speak for God.  And so he can reveal the Lord’s will to the people, calling them to return to His presence. Like the prophets is the law, of which David, another shepherd called by God – himself to be king – sings today in our psalm: “The law of the Lord is perfect, refreshing the soul.”  As the prophets’ chastisement would bring healing to those who listen and obey the word of the Lord they impart, so the law of God is meant to bring a “fear of the Lord [which] is pure, enduring forever,” so it, too, would bring blessed healing to the wayward child, “rejoicing the heart” and “enlightening the eye.” But the people did not listen to the prophets; they refused to obey the law of the Lord.  His words they cast aside, unable to swallow them, unable to make them an enduring part of their lives.  Like a cloud which passes, so ephemeral, so abstract and therefore unknown they would too often become.  And so the Father sent His Son. “Have courage, son, your sins are forgiven,” Jesus says to the “paralyzed man lying on a mat”; and this word He has come to make real in all our hearing – to all He brings forgiveness for their straying hearts.  Even the stiff necks of the scribes the Lord would bring healing.  The sins of the past He comes to wash away, advocating to the Father for us that we knew not what we were doing before His arrival, and come now He has to make real for us God’s presence in our midst, to take away our ignorance of the Father’s love… to enable us to stand up and walk “toward [our] home.” Indeed, “a feeling of awe” should come over us as it did over the crowd that witnessed Jesus’ power, for the same authority resides with us now in His Church – He has not left His people abandoned.  And so, come to the Lord and confess your sins, for the Lord in His grace gave “such authority to men” to act in His stead as does Christ.  And now find the courage and conviction to live your life led by the Incarnate Word of God.  May your soul be in the hands of the Good Shepherd. ******* O LORD, your Word be in our hearts and upon our lips that we might be saved from death. YHWH, in ancient times you gave authority to ordinary men to speak in your NAME.  Simple shepherds you called to prophesy against Israel and serve you as king.  In the fullness of time you sent your Son with the power to forgive men’s sins, to heal us of all our ills.  And now your authority rests in your Son’s apostles, those whom He sends forth to forgive and feed your flock.  May all souls come to your Church to receive grace from on high! Who will listen to your Word, O LORD, and turn away from his sin?  Who will be refreshed by your Law and find the enlightening of his eye?  Who treasures the sweetness of your chastisement, who knows the mercy bleeding in the heart of Jesus…?  Who of this fallen race would stand and walk with Him toward our home in Heaven? Give us courage, dear God, that you are with us and you care for all your sons.  From our exile let us be taken, that we might be held in your Hand.

    (Amos 5:14-15,21-24;   Ps.50:7-13,16-17,23;   Mt.8:28-34)  “Hear, my people, and I will speak; Israel, I will testify against you.” The chastising continues in our readings today.  Against the people’s vain sacrifices and “noisy songs,” both Amos and our psalmist speak in the Lord’s name.  In need of healing as the two men “possessed by demons” do we find ourselves in the sight of God. “Why do you recite my statutes, and profess my covenant with your mouth, though you hate discipline and cast my words behind you?” comes the warning from the Lord.  And is it not a word we who pray must keep constantly in our hearts?  For how easy it is to fall into empty worship; how readily do we begin to offer mere lip service to our God, when it is our very souls He demands.  And not for His sake does He instruct us to “let justice surge like water, and goodness like an unfailing stream” – to put into practice the words we speak.  He commands us to “seek good and not evil,” for “then truly will the Lord, the God of hosts, be with [us] as [we] claim.” Indeed we claim His presence in our lives; we presume His blessing upon us as we attend Mass and read His words, each day receiving His Body and Blood and hearing His instruction.  But continually we must check ourselves, for blindly do we fall into separation from the Lord, even in His house, and so may hear from His mouth: “I hate, I spurn your feasts… I take no pleasure in your solemnities.” At these times we must come “out of the tombs” as do the demoniacs today.  We must cry out to the Lord as we realize our sin.  And He will be faithful to us.  As He healed even these, He will cast the devils from us, too, and quickly.  But first we must realize that His “are the world and its fullness,” that He needs nothing from us.  First we must see that all our sacrifices do Him no good – only us.  Then He “will have pity,” when we have humbled ourselves.  Then He will gather us into His fold, when our hearts are set on His justice. Let the devil be cast from your mocking lips; accept the chastising Word of God, and new life at His feet you may find, possessed of the breath of His Spirit.  Then will your offerings find favor in His eyes.                                               ******* O LORD, come to us and stay with us and let us stay with you, sharing your goodness with all, your healing graces upon all souls. YHWH, you are God and need nothing from us; justice alone you seek of our lives.  To be as you are is your desire for us, and so you rebuke us in our wickedness. Cast the devils from our heart, O LORD; let us never dwell in vain pride, for then we should live as if in a tomb, separated far from you and your love.  Then we should know your justice. Help us to come rightly before you and beg your mercy, LORD, to bow before your majesty.  If we but recognized your greatness, your glory in our midst, and desired your rule over our wayward hearts… quickly you would come to save us – with a word from your mouth we would be redeemed. Our words are empty, dear LORD, and our worship vain, except when you bless us with your presence, except when you take pity on our sinful state.  Let your discipline bring us back to you; let us find ourselves at your feet, clothed and in our right minds.  By your hand let us be fed this day – we beg you to stay with us at all times!

    (Amos 3:1-8,4:11-12;   Ps.5:4-9;   Mt.8:23-27) “The lion roars – who will not be afraid! The Lord God speaks – who will not prophesy!” Yes, the Lord prophesies against Israel today like a lion rending and roaring: “You alone have I favored, more than all the families of the earth; therefore I will punish you for all your crimes.”  He brings upon His chosen “such upheaval as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah: [they are] like a brand plucked from the fire.”  In no uncertain terms does He cry out through Amos – “Prepare to meet your God, O Israel.” A frightening prospect indeed it is which is presented to us in our readings.  Here is the Lord God coming to take vengeance on His people.  This is He before whom “no evil man remains,” who “destroy[s] all who speak falsehood.”  And against His own who turn from Him, He reserves greater punishment. How shall we react, we who are now become His chosen children?  What should we do before such an awesome prospect as the Lord’s hand coming with power?  With David we should “bring [our] plea expectantly before [Him]”; with the disciples we should make “our way toward Him” and call out: “Lord, save us!  We are lost!”  And if we have the faith and humility of the Lord’s king, who declares, “I, because of your abundant kindness, will enter your house; I will worship at your holy temple in fear of you, O Lord,” then with his same confidence we may believe that the Lord will wake and take “the winds and the sea to task” – that what besets us because of our sin and separation from Him will be appeased by the same voice which threatens our destruction thereby.  For indeed the Lord is abundantly kind and speaks to us as His own, and chastises us as His own.  He raises His voice that we might return to Him; He places us in the fire that we might be purged.  Let us find our strength in a holy fear.     And let us join His voice.  Let us call out with Him to His blessed children, that all might return to Him who is their maker and protector – that all might be rescued from harm.  The Lord would not see us caught in the snare laid for the wicked, and so He has sent His only Son to appease the wrath He has justly spoken forth.  Let the lion’s mouth not close upon our heads, but may we be awakened by its voice and open our own mouths to declare the mercy of our God. ******* O LORD, the wind and the sea obey your Son, but we harden our hearts against Him – O let us heed His voice! YHWH, even wind and sea obey you, and so we call upon your NAME to be saved from their clutches.  Let not our sins overwhelm us, but bring us the grace of your salvation. LORD, we deserve your just punishment, for we have stubbornly turned our hearts from you.  Though you have been kind in watching over and protecting us from harm, we have not recognized your goodness toward us and praised your NAME;  instead, we have turned to other gods and walked in the wickedness of our hearts.  And so, what can you do but cry out against us; and so, what can we be but destroyed if we do not heed your voice? Give us courage, LORD, for our strength fails us.  All we can see is the turmoil our weakness brings upon us.  Help us to see beyond the troubles the world presents, troubles we have brought upon ourselves, that we might see you and your power at work, and place all our faith therein.  O let us listen to your prophets as they cry out and so walk your way in peace and light, despite the surrounding darkness.

    (Lam.2:2,10-14,18-19;   Ps.74:1-7,19-21;   Mt.8:5-17)  “It was our infirmities He bore, our sufferings He endured.” And oh how deep are those sufferings; “great as the sea is [our] downfall.”  And graphically are they seen in the destruction of Jerusalem; sharply they pierce the flesh of the Son. Yes, the Lord “has torn down in His anger the fortresses of daughter Judah…  On the ground in silence sit the old men of daughter Zion; they strew dust on their heads and gird themselves with sackcloth.  The maidens of Jerusalem bow their heads to the ground.”  And the children and infants “faint away like the wounded in the streets of the city, and breathe their last in their mothers’ arms.”  And so the prophet Jeremiah is “worn out from weeping”; and so his “gall is poured out on the ground because of the downfall of the daughter of [his] people.” And is this weeping not Jesus’ own?  Does He not shed tears over Jerusalem for the suffering it has known, and its suffering to come?  Does He not indeed die for our sins?  Listen to the description of the destruction of the holy city offered by our psalmist today: “With chisel and hammer they hack at all the paneling of the sanctuary.”  Are these not the blows Jesus suffered; are they not the nails which pierced His hands and feet and side?  “They set your sanctuary on fire; the place where your name abides they have razed and destroyed.”  Is not Jesus the Temple of the living God, crucified by the hands of lust and greed and jealousy?  Have we not done such violence to our Lord?  And has He not endured all for our salvation? Let the priest and all the children note the cause of such destruction of God’s chosen ones, the suffering of His only Son.  Is it not the prophets who proclaimed “false and specious visions,” who “did not lay bare [the people’s] guilt, to avert [their] fate”?  And note the Lord’s own words and attitude toward those who follow Him, to the children of Israel who press upon Him: “The natural heirs of the kingdom will be driven out into the dark.  Wailing will be heard there and grinding of teeth.”  Does Jesus fail to show those in His care the narrow gate?  And so should we continue to coddle faithless hearts unto their destruction? He indeed bears all our infirmities, all the sickness our sin has wrought.  But we must indeed see ourselves as the centurion’s servant boy, “in bed paralyzed, suffering painfully,” to find His word of healing.  We must come with the faith of the centurion to know His saving touch.  For destruction indeed awaits the land, and so we must cry out to Him, “Turn your steps toward the utter ruins; toward all the damage the enemy has done in your sanctuary,” if we hope to be redeemed by His blood. ******* O LORD, only Jesus could heal our ills, only He could bear our suffering, for our guilt is great – only He could take it away. YHWH, how dire is the condition of your city this day; your people waste away on its streets, and none is there to help them.  Should we not call upon you; and would you not be faithful in carrying away our afflictions, in saving us from the destruction that surrounds us because of our sin?  We lie paralyzed before you; lift us up from our bed of pain. Does not death surround us this day, O LORD?  Is there not little hope among your people – are not the walls of our city torn down?  Yet your Son would bear all our suffering; our infirmities He would take away.  Let us come to Him for healing.  Let us cry out to you for grace, for you are faithful to all sincere prayers…  Look upon us in our desolate state. O LORD, the sanctuary has been torn down – your Son has been crucified in our midst.  But we know this death He endures with us will bring us new life if we but pour out our hearts like water in your presence.  O let us come to your banquet in the kingdom!

    (2Kgs.25:1-12;   Ps.137:1-6;   Mt.8:1-4)  “Then Nebuzaradan, captain of the guard, led into exile the last of the people remaining in the city.” And so the exile is complete.  Not a soul remains in the holy city.  And their captors “burned the house of the Lord, the palace of the king, and all the houses of Jerusalem.”  Not a stone is left standing one upon another.  Not even the government appointed by the king of Babylon could remain.  And they even “tore down the walls that surrounded Jerusalem.” Now she is utterly exposed.  Now she who was his precious pearl is cast out and trampled underfoot.  And so our psalmist can but lament, “By the streams of Babylon we sat and wept, when we remembered Zion.”  And so his songs of joy are silenced in this “foreign land.”  But in his lament today do we not find a kind of hope?  Does not his abiding love for the holy city of God bring expectation of a better day?  Listen to his faith: “If I forget you, Jerusalem, may my right hand be forgotten!  May my tongue cleave to my palate if I remember you not, if I place not Jerusalem ahead of my joy.”  Even as we hear of the utter destruction of the temple and the city of God, we are given a sense of the faith that will build it up again. And on the day we hear of the completion of the exile of Judah and Jerusalem to Babylon, we hear of the healing of one who is completely ostracized by society.  The leper comes begging for a cure, seeking to join his fellow men upon the land, and the Lord answers him: “Jesus stretched out His hand and touched him and said, ‘I do will it.  Be cured.’”  Should this not give us hope in all our travails?  Does this not signal not only the return of the exiles in seventy years, but our utter redemption and return to the Lord in the coming of the Person of Jesus?  For upon heeding the Lord’s instruction to “show [himself] to the priest and offer the gift prescribed,” the leper will be welcomed into the Church and society – his exile will be ended. We all stand exiled by sin.  We are all utterly bereft of the blessing of the Lord.  But there is hope.  We are told that even in this exile to Babylon “some of the country’s poor” remained to till the land.  And has not Jesus just come from the mountain where He has taught His disciples, “Blest are the lowly; they shall inherit the land”?  If we humble ourselves before Him as has the leper, if we remain meek in His sight as have the poor of the land, the blessing of the Lord shall come to us and never leave.  For He indeed wills it so.  He indeed desires our return from exile.  Do we have a heart to come to Him?  Do we remember where we have been? ******* O LORD, it is your will that we be whole and living in peace; keep us poor in spirit that we might not be removed from your sight. YHWH, save us from our sin this day, even as you healed the leper; bring us back from our exile to dwell again in the holy City of Jerusalem.  Are we not temples of your Spirit?  Let us remember and return to them. O LORD, come down from the mountain to walk amongst us, for we are in need of your presence.  We live as though far from you in a land of darkness and exile.  Is there yet hope for our beaten souls?  May we yet be cured of our disease?  Only if you are here with us, and we recognize you and call upon your love. Why should your children remain apart from you?  O LORD, why can we not sing of your glory?  You are just and we deserve our punishment, but let us call upon your mercy this day.  Then you will reach out to us; then you will speak your Word over us.  Then your will shall indeed be known – that we be saved from the evil of this day.

    (2Kgs.24:8-17;   Ps.79:1-5,8,9;   Mt.7:21-29)  “The rains fell, the torrents came, the winds blew and lashed against his house. It collapsed under all this and was completely ruined.” Yes, “the officials of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, attacked Jerusalem, and the city came under siege,” and “Jehoiachin, king of Judah, together with his mother, his ministers, officers, and functionaries, surrendered to the king of Babylon, who… took him captive…  None were left among the people of the land except the poor”; and these, too, shall soon be struck. Yes, the nations “have defiled [the Lord’s] holy temple, they have laid Jerusalem in ruins.”  And why has such destruction come?  Our first reading tells us simply of Jehoiachin, “He did evil in the sight of the Lord, just as his forebears had done”; and now finally the day of reckoning has come.  And now the nations “have poured out their blood like water round about Jerusalem, and there is no one to bury them.”  Now does the Lord’s “jealousy burn like fire.” And what shall be left when that fire is passed?  Who shall stand on that day of reckoning that shall come to all souls, to peoples of all nations?  Will you stand before the Lord and recount the great deeds you have done before Him who holds all the world in His holy hand?  Will you attempt to justify yourself before Him who justifies all?  Will your heart truly be set upon such vain pursuit?  Truly then the Lord will “declare to [you] solemnly, ‘Out of my sight, you evildoers’”; for all you have done will be as a grain of sand in His sight, and that grain will be blown from His hand for your lack of humility, for your pride before whom none can stand. How shall it be then that your house be “solidly set on rock”?  How will you avoid the fate of His chosen city Jerusalem?  If it has been destroyed, do you not think that you, too, are liable to be struck from His sight?  Or do you find yourself perfect?  You must cry out as our psalmist, “Deliver us and pardon our sins for your name’s sake.”  You must heed the words of Christ and consider yourselves unworthy servants (Lk.17:10), unfit as you are to stand before His eyes, to dwell in His light.  Then He may have pity on your wretched soul.  Then He might make you strong.  Your tongue silent before His majesty, there will be hope that you shall remain. Remember, brothers and sisters, this is He who “taught with authority” before whom you stand.  Do not lose the awe of His presence.  And perhaps the great collapse of your house will not be necessary; perhaps you shall find His great love which washes away all sin.  Let the rains He sends but be cleansing.  Endure them gracefully. ******* O LORD, the gold of the temple does not endure, but only a humble soul set on your will. YHWH, let us do your will, that we might stand humbly before you on the Day of judgment. You cannot help but judge, dear LORD; you cannot help but condemn the pride and wickedness of an evil heart and a vain life.  You would give us food to stand strong, your command that gives life indeed… but we would follow our own ways, and so, how can we end but removed from your sight? You make us as temples, LORD, temples of your Holy Spirit feeding on the Body and Blood of your Son… but how faithful are we to the call to be as your Son, to listen to His words and the guidance of the Spirit – are we truly obedient to your will for our lives? If we are not humble, LORD, then we know you not.  If we expect return for works done in your NAME, then we understand not the great blessing of being your sons, and how unworthy we are to carry out your will. O LORD, come back to us and help us because of the glory of your NAME.  Let us make our home in you and in your Temple, and so find strength in you on the Day you return.

Our psalmist proclaims, “Great is the Lord and wholly to be praised in the city of our God.”  He extols the glory of Mount Zion, of Jerusalem, “the city of the great King,” for the blessings of God upon it.  Here is His temple and so here it is we “ponder [His] kindness”; here it is we take refuge, finding “the narrow gate” that leads to Him and to His salvation. In our first reading today the Lord gives evidence of the way in which He protects His children; He reveals that He will not “give what is holy to dogs or toss [His] pearls before swine.”  The king of Assyria has indeed “laid waste the nations and their lands,” including the Northern Kingdom of Israel.  He has acted with seemingly invincible power, and now he has come to the Lord’s chosen city to destroy it as well.  And though this Jerusalem, where His temple does dwell, and the chosen tribes of Judah (through whom His Savior shall come) shall not be protected forever… though this earthly tent shall so soon be ransacked and taken into exile itself, today the Lord shows how His promise, His covenant with them, will never be taken away.  Though the temple’s walls be one day destroyed, His spiritual kingdom, His New Jerusalem is eternally blessed in heaven. Hezekiah indeed “enter[s] through the narrow gate” of prayer.  Taking the threatening letter from Sennacherib in his hand, “he [goes] up to the temple of the Lord, and spreading it out before Him, he pray[s] in the Lord’s presence.”  He calls out, “O Lord, our God, save us from the power of this man, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you alone, O Lord, are God.”  And the Lord listens.  He takes pity on His “virgin daughter Zion… for out of Jerusalem shall come a remnant, and from Mount Zion, survivors.”  And by the hand of the Lord the king of Assyria is turned back. Brothers and sisters, “Jerusalem will not be handed over” to the king of this world.  Upon His Church His blessed protection remains.  Through Judah and David, the king whose city is Jerusalem, Jesus has come – the Lord’s promise is fulfilled and the remnant now does thrive.  Here is the Temple not made by human hands; here is the narrow gate through whom all must enter paradise… here is “the joy of all the earth,” God’s “holy mountain” in our midst; and on His heights and in these walls, we are shielded and saved forever. ******* O LORD, if we enter through the narrow gate, we shall come into your presence, and you shall always fight for us. YHWH, how shall we find our way to your holy City, on which your protection rests, which shall always be saved from the violence of this world?  No kingdom can conquer your Church; in her let us make our home. On your holy mountain, the fairest of heights, let us find our place, O LORD.  To your Temple let us come, stretching out our arms in prayer.  And you shall listen to our pleas, and your help will be with us quickly – you will be our stronghold.  And so, we will praise you forever, for you teach us the way that leads to your House; in your heavenly kingdom we shall ever remain. O LORD, let us be holy as you are holy, as all your children are holy.  Let us be as those who walk the narrow path to you, who find joy in the difficulties present there.  Dwelling in faith we shall not fear the threats of the mighty, for you who are above all are our shield and guide.
