Stewardship
A Way of Life
This Week’s Readings
Jesus is describing God’s immeasurable generosity
when He says in today’s gospel, “Whoever asks,
receives; whoever seeks, finds; whoever knocks, is
admitted.” But it should also be the description of us as
Christian stewards - those seeking to follow Christ by
using our gifts in service to others.
Living Stewardship
We are grateful this week for all stewards who embrace
God’s mercy, striving to make God’s mercy visible in
our world by sharing it with others.

“… NFP ALLOWS A COUPLE TO SAY, ‘YOU ARE
AMAZING JUST THE WAY YOU ARE.’”
NFP: It’s Worth It! Join the Revolution!
In marriage preparation programs, couples frequently ask: “What is the difference between
contraception and Natural Family Planning (NFP)?” Although I am happy to explain, I often
realize that words are inadequate. I try to encourage them to ask a better question: “How can a
couple have ‘authentic sexual intimacy’ and responsibly plan their family?” The difference
between the two questions is deep and wide. The answer has to do with joining a revolution—God’s revolution!
God’s love is revolutionary. It is freely given. It is permanent, total, faithful, and fruitful. And, God shares His love
with us as gift. When man and woman marry, they make a vow at the altar to love each other as God loves. In their
consent, the “I” becomes “we!” And, there is more. God’s gift of sexual relations to husband and wife gives them a
particular way to “seal” or “perfect” their vows in a physical reality where the “we” can become “us” in a child.
With NFP, spouses say, “I love you freely” because the time of sexual abstinence demonstrates that they can say
“No” and do no harm to God’s gift of fertility. This makes their times of “Yes,” more meaningful. To put it another
way, if we cannot say “no” to our sexual urges then we are not truly free and our “yes” really means nothing. When a
couple jointly respects God’s gift of fertility rather than seeking to manipulate it, they offer the total gift of their
persons to each other. A faithful gift is one that is always in the best interest of the person, and NFP allows a couple
to say, “You are amazing just the way you are” (remember, when using NFP, the couple does not seek to alter their
fertility through chemicals, devices, or procedures). In addition, the discipline of periodic sexual abstinence helps
couples to resist temptations that offend sexual fidelity and the virtue of chastity. NFP allows the couple to give God
the final word on whether their sexual union will result in pregnancy. In turning over physical fruitfulness to God, the
couple practices spiritual fruitfulness as they open their hearts to God who is love. A revolution is not an easy
endeavor. It can be exciting, but it inevitably will require personal sacrifice and even suffering. NFP is no different.
Accepting God’s invitation to live His plan for married love is both humbling and wondrous. It involves many
blessings. And, yet, it will also have its difficulties. For example, when postponing a pregnancy, some couples may
experience prolonged periods of sexual abstinence due to unclear fertility signs-and they will feel the loss of their
physical intimacy. When facing the challenge of postpartum and breastfeeding or during perimenopause, other
couples may wonder if their efforts are worth the trouble. And, sadly some couples may be tempted to give up when
receiving disapproval from friends or family. At times such as these, it will be important for NFP couples to know
that they are not alone. They can seek help from their NFP teachers and local diocesan leaders. The diocesan NFP
community has access to resources, including spiritual directors and appropriate medical professionals, who can help
couples who are in need of assistance. Most importantly, when facing challenges, NFP couples should be encouraged
to turn to God in prayer, as individuals and as a couple. In my own life, I have both worn down rosary beads and the
path to the Adoration chapel during spiritual battles in my life, and God never failed to give me consolation and
direction! In my mind’s eye stands an image of a heart with the caption, “Sacrifice is the Metric of Love.” We know
this truth in the deepest part of our being. Unfortunately, today we live in the culture that has tried to redesign love
and in particular, sex. In doing so it has eliminated the language of love which is the language of self- sacrifice. NFP
supports the language of love. It stands against any notion that love is about self-satisfaction to the exclusion of
self-donation. NFP allows couples to honor God by respecting His design. It both respects man and woman as
created by God, and values God’s gift of fertility. NFP therefore values the child as gift. What is God’s design for
men and women but that which is love and life, babies and bonding unitive and procreative, together! With NFP, a
couple can trust the gift as it was made, and when they do so, they can truly renew their vows and invite love, God’s
love into their marriage. This is a revolution worth joining!
