The Commemoration of All the
Faithful Departed
"I will not reject anyone who comes
to me." Today, as we remember the
faithful departed, we can rejoice in
these words from Jesus. He promises
that he will welcome those who come
to him. He is so anxious to embrace
us! As the catechism puts it, "All who
die in God's grace and friendship, but
still imperfectly purified, are indeed
assured of their eternal salvation" (CCC §1030).
Jesus' whole message here is important. Eternal salvation is available to all, but it does involve a level of participation on our part.
"Everyone who sees the Son and believes in him may have eternal life," Jesus says in today's Gospel. When it's authentic, of
course, this belief is more than mere lip service. Understanding
that Jesus is our savior and our God is one thing. Coming to him
is another; it takes belief to the next level of personal commitment. This involves choices, decisions, and actions. Coming to
Jesus means being near him-through a spiritual life that involves
a real relationship with him-as well as being focused on him by
charting our life's course in the light of faith. This is what we
strive to do during the ups and downs of this life.
