"In a world full of broken hearts the Cross cannot be mocked" - XV Sunday After Pentecost 9/10/23

The utter tenderness and compassion shown to the widow of Naim by our Lord in "re-creating" her son, demonstrates the motivation for His act: God alone holds the power of Life and there before the tumoultous crowds is God Himself- incarnate in human flesh! Yet, they moan and grumble away with fear still not recognizing Him. This week, Fr. Stanislaus discusses how our lives are filled with these moments that almost always end in running with fear from the situation but should always cause our motivation for "action in compassion" as taught by St. Paul and instructed by our Lord in today's Holy Gospel. While these situations in our lives bring sorrow and suffering, no matter how it came about, that suffering, which is your cross to bear, can NEVER be mocked. Yet, who amongst us has not looked upon the sufferings of the poor and rejected and not mocked?
