John Martin T: 07714460526 Deacon: Keith Bunyan T: 01335 360350 Website: www.allsaintsashbourne.org.uk Sunday 26th October 2014 30th Sunday of Ordinary Time 1st Reading: Exodus 22:20-26 Psalm:17 R: I love you, Lord, my strength. 2nd Reading: Thessalonians 1:5-10 Gospel: Matthew 22:34-40 Communion antiphon: We will ring out our joy at your saving help and exult in the name of our God. My Dear Friends, Jesus does not create new commandments. In today’s gospel he chooses the two on which, he says, “hang the whole Law, and the Prophets also”. Both of them involve love, love of God and love of our neighbour as ourselves. What does such love mean? When the commandment speaks of the love of God it demands a commitment of heart, soul and mind. This is no light nod in God’s direction in case things go wrong. It means we base our lives on our relationship with him. In the Jewish order of thinking, we commit ourselves totally to him because he has committed himself totally to us, freeing us from slavery and sin. We live out our love of God in the second of the great commandments, the love of our neighbour as ourselves. Note that we are not asked to hate ourselves. We too are part of the love equation. We are called to respect, take care of, listen to, be kind to ourselves as well as our neighbours. And we know from St. Luke’s parable of the Good Samaritan who we mean by our neighbour, the one who is in the greatest need… and sometimes that too can be ourselves. Fr.
