Father's Day Blessing
Single fathers usually sit in the back row of their
children's school performances. Fathers who are married
usually sit as close to the front of the audiences, with
their spouses. Why is this?
Well, we all know how important mothers are to the
well-being of a family. However, we as a culture look at
single fathers with a bit of suspicion. Fathers are as
important as mothers are, but offer a different perspective on life and bring a much needed role in bringing up
children. Let us welcome all fathers today to the front
row of our lives and acknowledge how important they
have been, and continue to be in our lives.
Let us pray...
Gracious God and Father, our first father,
You are the One who has brought us to life in this
world you created.
You created us and everything around us.
We turned away from you
and only after disappointing you did we return
your love.
Look with favor on our earthly fathers.
They helped create us in your image.
We have disappointed them,
but have come to realize just how important they
are to us.
Bless all our fathers, living and deceased, with
comfort and health.
We bring all their needs to you
and ask for strength so they may live worthy
lives.
We ask all this in the name of your Son,
our model of what it means to reverence our
fathers.
In Christ's name.
Amen.
12th Sunday in Ordinary Time
"Once when Jesus was praying in solitude, and the
disciples were with him..." The first line of today's Gospel
presents a strange image. Jesus was both by himself and
with others. He was somehow experiencing the solitude
of personal prayer, but was also close enough to his
followers to engage in conversation with them.
Although we don't know exactly what the details were
of this situation, it does suggest for us an example
of what we might call spiritual "balance." Here we see
Jesus taking time to be alone in prayer, but also taking
time to engage in spiritual reflection with the other
members of his community. He didn't sacrifice one for
the other. He found a way to have both.
We are called to do the same. Developing the habit of
personal prayer is an essential part of our spiritual lives.
Like Jesus, we too need to set aside time and space to
pray by ourselves, connecting as individuals with our
Father in heaven. Whether it be a few quiet moments in
the morning, or time to pray at night, this kind of prayer
keeps us connected to God. It enables us to give our own
answer the poignant question Jesus poses today, "But
who do you say that I am?" Personal prayer alone, however, is not enough to fulfill us spiritually. We are also
meant to participate in the larger community of believers, joining together with others in communal prayer and
reflection.
This, of course, happens every time we attend Mass as
we gather together at church and join in the liturgy. For
some, "sacrificing" our Sunday mornings week after week
may seem like too much to ask. But this is one way we
can carry out the challenging command of Christ to take
up our cross and follow him.
