Clergy Corner

Question of the Week:

How do I show my love for God and my love for neighbor? When have I felt myself giving that love with all my being?

The words of Deuteronomy that we hear in the first reading are found in the Shema, the prayer recited by devout Jews every morning and evening, a prayer that expresses the foundation of the Jewish faith. It has been their daily prayer for hundreds of generations, including the generation that lived in Jesus’ time, so all of the scribes would have certainly known the prayer by heart. Every day it reminds them of God’s prominence in their lives. Every day it reminds them that their God is the God of all, for there is but one God. Every day it reminds them that they are to respond to God with love, with all their being. May it remind us of the same.
