SUMMARY:Vigils Reading - 27th Sunday
DESCRIPTION:A reading from \nST BASIL THE GREAT \n◊◊◊ \nYou need only look at the vine to be reminded of your own nature\, that is\, \nif you observe it intelligently. No doubt you remember the image used by the \nLord in which he says that he is the vine and the Father the vinedresser. Each of \nus who have been grafted onto the Church by faith he calls branches\, and he \nurges us to bear much fruit so as not to be rejected as useless and thrown into \nthe fire. \nThroughout the Scriptures the Lord continually likens human souls to \nvines. He says for instance: My beloved had a vineyard on a fertile hillside; and \nagain: I planted a vineyard and put a hedge around it. Clearly it is human souls \nthat he calls his vineyard\, and the hedge he has put round them is the security of \nhis commandments and the protection of the angels; for the angel of the Lord \nwill encamp around those who fear him. Moreover\, by establishing in the \nChurch apostles in the first place\, prophets in the second\, and teachers in the \nthird\, he has surrounded us as though by a firmly planted palisade. \nIn addition\, the Lord has raised our thoughts to heaven by the examples \nof saints of past ages. He has kept them from sinking to the earth where they \nwould deserve to be trampled on\, and he wills that the bonds of love\, like the \ntendrils of a vine\, should attach us to our neighbors and make us rest on them\, \nso that always climbing upward like the vines growing on trees\, we may reach \nthe loftiest heights. \nHe also requires that we allow ourselves to be weeded. To be spiritually \nweeded means to have renounced worldly ambitions that burdened our hearts. \nAnyone who has renounced the love of material things and attachment to \npossessions\, or who has come to regard as despicable and deserving of \ncontempt the poor\, wretched glory of this world\, is like a weeded vine. Freed \nfrom the profitless burden of earthly aspirations\, that person can breathe again. \nFinally\, following out the implications of the comparison\, we must not \nrun to wood\, or\, in other words\, show off or seek the praise of outsiders. Instead\, \nwe must bear fruit by reserving the display of our good works for the true vine \ndresser.
