Stories for All Seasons
Twenty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time: Humbling Oneself
Theme: We are to humbly serve the needs of others.
An ancient teacher once asked his pupils how to tell when the night had ended and the day wan on the way back. “Could it be,” asked one student, “when you can see an animal in the distance and can tell whether it is a sheep or a dog?”
“No,” said the teacher.
“Could it be,” asked another, “when you can look at a tree and tell whether it is a fig tree or a peach tree?” “No,” answered the teacher.
“Well, then when is it?” demanded his pupils.
“It is when you look on the face of any woman or any man and see that she or he is your sister or brother. Because if you cannot do this, no matter what time it is, it is still night.”
Application: Loving others in act on a daily basis is what lights up the world. Do we put ourselves at the service of others? How?
