SUMMARY:Vigils Reading - 28th Sunday
DESCRIPTION:THE CRY OF THE HEART \nFrom a commentary by Bruno of Segni \n◊◊◊ \nOn the way to Jerusalem Jesus passed through the border between \nSamaria and Galilee\, and when he entered one of the villages ten lepers came to \nmeet him. What do these ten lepers stand for if not the sum total of all sinners? \nWhen Christ the Lord came not all men and women were leprous in body\, but in \nsoul they were\, and to have a soul full of leprosy is much worse than to have a \nleprous body. \nBut let us see what happened next. Standing a long way off they called out \nto him: “Jesus\, Master. Take pity on us.” They stood a long way off because no \none in their condition dared come too close. We stand a long way off too while \nwe continue in sin. To be restored to health and cured of the leprosy of sin\, we \nalso must cry out: “Jesus\, Master\, take pity on us.” That cry\, however\, must \ncome not from our lips but from our heart\, for the cry of the heart is louder: it \npierces the heavens\, rising up to the very throne of God. \nWhen Jesus saw the lepers he told them to go and show themselves to the \npriests. God has only to look at people to be filled with compassion. He pitied \nthese lepers as soon as he saw them\, and sent them to the priests not to be \ncleansed by them\, but to be pronounced clean. \nAnd as soon as they went they were cleansed. Let all sinners listen to this \nand try to understand it. It is easy for the Lord to forgive sins. Sinners have often \nbeen forgiven before they come to a priest. In fact their repentance and healing \noccur simultaneously: at the very moment of their conversion they pass from \ndeath to life. Let them understand\, however\, what this conversion means\, let \nthem understand the Lord’s words: Return to me with all your heart\, with \nfasting\, weeping and mourning; and rend your hearts and not your garments. \nTo be really converted one must be converted inwardly\, in one’s heart\, for a \nhumbled contrite heart God will not spurn. \nOne of them\, when he saw that he was cured\, went back again\, praising \nGod at the top of his voice. He threw himself at Jesus’ feet and thanked him. \nNow this man was a Samaritan. He stands for all those who\, after their \ncleansing by the waters of baptism or healing by the sacrament of penance\, \nrenounce the devil and take Christ as their model\, following him with praise\, \nadoration and thanksgiving\, and nevermore abandoning his service. \nAnd Jesus said to him: “Stand up and go on your way. Your faith has saved \nyou.” Great therefore is the power of faith. Without it\, as the Apostle says\, it is \nimpossible to please God. Abraham believed God and because of this God \nregarded him as righteous. Faith saves\, faith justifies\, faith heals both body and \nsoul.
