Rave reviews greeted Jesus’ first hometown homily pro-claiming a year of God’s mercy, but the mood turned violent when he went on to declare that God’s mercy embraces out-siders; it rejects distinctions between citizen and foreigner, acceptable and unworthy, even sinner and saint. Far from being anyone’s personal possession, God’s kingdom is open to everyone, God’s love unconditional, God’s mercy bound-less. By this Jubilee Year of Mercy, Pope Francis repeats Jesus’ challenge in today’s Gospel to broaden our horizons until our vision matches Jesus’ vision of every sinner as a potential saint, and each suffering stranger as our neigh-bor. Jesus, says Pope Francis, continually went beyond the law, keeping company with public sinners and even sharing meals with them to demonstrate that God’s mercy is “the beating heart of the Gospel” (Misericordiae Vultus, 12). To be truly Jesus’ disciples, such unconditional love and bound-less mercy must also be at the center of all we say and do.

NEXT SUNDAY’S READINGSFirst Reading -- In a vision Isaiah is called to be a mes-senger for the LORD of hosts. Isaiah responds, “Send me!” (Isaiah 6:1-2a, 3-8)Psalm -- In the sight of the angels I will sing your praises, Lord (Psalm 138).Second Reading -- Paul reminds us of the gospel he preached through which we are saved, if we believe it (1 Corinthians 15:1-11 [3-8, 11]).Gospel -- Jesus directs Simon to take his boat into deep water for a miraculous catch of fish. Simon and his part-ners leave all to follow Jesus (Luke 5:1-11).

Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time
It is doubtful that Paul, when he sat down to write what we now know as the thirteenth chapter of First Corinthians, knew that he was penning what was to become one of the keystones of Christian ethics. In this brief passage, he set down ideals about love that have held fast through the cen-turies. Sometimes we think that because these are ideals that we aspire to, we are excused from them in our daily living.
But what Paul was writing was a letter to his friends, providing them with some sound advice about what it meant--and still means--to live in love, day by day, as a follower of Jesus Christ. We find in his words to his friends a broadening of the great commands of Jesus to love God and neighbor. Today we hear what this love must look like in our own actions, and how it ought to guide our relationships with others.
FAMOUS FIRST WORDS . . .Today’s readings are filled with some of the phras-es from the scriptures that have become some of the best-known and best-loved: “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you” (Jeremiah 1:4), “Put aside childish things” (1 Corinthians 13:11), “No prophet is accepted in his own native place” (Luke 4:24). All three come from books of the scripture that bear the names of God’s messengers, all of whom have one thing in common. Jeremiah, Paul, and Jesus began their ministries with enthu-siasm and energy, but soon encountered opposition. Nonetheless, we still know their words and lives, and so they provide inspiration and hope for us to continue doggedly on with the mission or ministry--whatever it may be--which God has granted us. Will living the life to which God calls us be easy and perfectly smooth? Of course not! Do we have reason to continue on in faith? Of course!
AND LAST THINGSAll three of these figures, in the course of their mission, endured trial, hardship, and ultimately, death. Jesus, especially when speaking of his fate to suffer, quotes Jeremiah more than any other prophet. And it is the death of Jesus on the cross that Luke once again foretells in his passage today. Though the Nazarenes would have had to lead Jesus a long, long way to a hill (Nazareth is a very flat place), his concern is not geography, but destiny. This passage looks forward to the time when Jesus, rejected by his own, will be “cast out” not just from a city, but from Israel itself. Once again it will take place on a hill, where he will die on a cross. But our own hope of overcoming adversity is also foreshadowed today when Jesus passes through their midst, as he will pass through the clutches of death. How blessed are we, then, to have Jeremiah, Paul, and Jesus to guide us and offer us strength to persevere in our own call to be faithful to God’s will for us.
Today’s Readings: Jer 1:4-5, 17-19; Ps 71:1-6, 15, 17; 1 Cor 12:31 -- 13:13 [13:4-13]; Lk 4:21-30

DID YOU KNOW?Kik Messenger and the dangers of anonymous messages.Social media sites are available to anyone with an internet connection (computer, phone, tablet). Your kids may be shar-ing their lives with complete strangers, and parents should be aware of the sites they use, what they share, and who their friends are. One mobile app, Kik, is regarded as the most dangerous site for internet predators, because users can send messages to anyone with a cellphone, including young children. Kik has no options for parental controls, leaving kids exposed to the entire web. To learn more about this app in the Virtus® article “Mobile App Danger—Kik Messenger,” email [email protected].
