Mt 24:37-44 (Faith Response to the Issues of Our Present Day) Rev. Paul A. Hottinger Prepare, Aware, Prayer First Sunday of Advent/A November 28, 2010 9:00 AM Is 2:1-5; Rom 13:11-14; Mt 24:37-44 (Faith response to the issues of our present day) “So too, you also must be prepared, for at an hour you do not expect, the Son of Man will come.” We are beginning the season of Advent, and although this is a beautiful bright and sunny day, Advent is actually a time of growing darkness, longer nights, shorter days, more clouds, more cold. The Church has traditionally used this natural phenomenon to reflect on the continuing darkness that prevails in our world even though the light has already come in Christ. This is part of the mystery of iniquity, so-called in the Old Testament; this is part of the groaning of creation, as St. Paul calls it. It is hard for us to understand, those of us who are truly believers in Christ, how the world can remain so staunchly in darkness, but it does. So the gospel is calling us to awaken: to become aware of what is really transpiring in our world, and how God is calling us to deal with it. We are not spectators. We are called on, every baptized person is called on, to be an apostle, a missionary, a worker in the vineyard, bringing the light into the darkness. How can you do that in your own life, your own personal circumstances? That is the question the gospel places before you this Advent season. Now Jesus mentions Noah, the story of Noah, a fascinating story, beloved by children, but never understood correctly by them because the story of the ark is not really a story of a natural ark full of natural animals. A natural ark full of natural animals would all eat each other. This is really a symbol of supernatural intervention into the course of history. Recognized already in the very beginning of our biblical period by the sacred authors, human life requires a harmony it cannot provide for itself. We need God, God’s grace and God’s power, to produce the kind of ordinary harmony and justice we crave even on this planet, even in our daily lives, and really can’t do without. But the harmony that we need, God will never force upon us. It has to be something we seek and desire and sacrifice for and, moreover, pray for. It has to be something we really want. And yet many today, as in the time of Noah, are oblivious to this great need we have—they are oblivious. So Jesus refers to the fact that in the time of Noah people were eating and drinking, marrying, and giving in marriage, as if, well, what else is there to do, as if there is nothing amiss; life will just continue the way it always has. Well, it always hasn’t. Our timescale may be very short, but life hasn’t just always gone on. In fact, life can, has become, and may again become completely intolerable, and then it won’t go on. It will be swept in a flood of passion, war, holocaust or whatever. Natural disasters also play a part: floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, and so on. But it isn’t the actual disaster itself; it’s how we react to it. Where people have built networks of care and concern, where people really are taking care of one another, natural disasters are occasions of great progress actually in human relations. People experience the wonder and gratitude of others helping them. But this is not always the case. There are Prepare, Aware, Prayer times and there are places even today where there is no network, where people don’t care about each other, and then natural disasters are unbelievable disasters in human terms, in the wreaking of lives and even whole civilizations. Unbeknownst to most of us, there is a constant interaction, dialogue going on, between God and the human race, and always has been since the very beginning, since the time of Adam, according to Lumen Gentium. This interaction has brought about periods of relative harmony and concord, and then there have been other periods of great disharmony and discord. The story of Noah recalls a period of great discord and disharmony that ended in disaster for many, a time and a disaster they were not prepared for. The time of Jesus was really another time of great discord and disharmony, a disaster for many, the end of the country of Judea, the end of the temple, and the end of a nation, Jesus’ own nation. And there have been other times, and there will be other times. When we hear about “the day of the Lord,” it could mean three different things. It could mean the actual end of the world, probably very far off. But it could mean the day of your death, whenever that will be. Or it could mean the time of some great disaster for which we may or may not be prepared that will alter our lives from then on. All three are correct interpretations of this “day.” We need to note that the present age is not a time of extraordinary harmony between God and humanity. In fact, we have not only the continuing existence of callous criminals, which always exist, doing their violence, reeking havoc as they do, but we today have something else: a very sophisticated atheism permeating the highest levels of our culture. Well, this is actually very dangerous because atheists cannot possibly know that they are infinitely loved. You cannot be an atheist and believe you are infinitely loved because atheism is a rejection of the very idea of infinite love. But people who do not know they are loved act very differently from people who do know that they are loved. If we are going to live in a world increasingly ignorant of God and God’s love for us and his will to bless us, that is going to have tremendous consequences for each one of us, and for our children and grandchildren even more. Furthermore, salvation history has proved that periods of great disharmony cannot go on indefinitely. Human life needs harmony and wants peace and justice, and yearns for these. Many of the psalms lament the absence of justice in the world and seek redress from God. This is really a natural reaction. If progress toward these ends, namely, justice, peace, and harmony, continues to be thwarted by the powers that rule our world, unrest will simply keep building. It would seem foolish to actually trust our leaders, political or economic, to be able to solve the ills that beset us. They aren’t actually political or economic ills in the first place. They simply have economic and political consequences. They are really spiritual ills, and they come from unbelief, from an unresponsiveness to God on behalf of multitudes of human beings. The question the gospel places before us is: What kind of response does a man or woman of faith make to the issues of this present day? What are we supposed to do? The answer is that every person of faith must realize that God is calling each of us to help in the bringing of salvation to earth. And we can do this because God is very 2 Prepare, Aware, Prayer powerful and wants to bless us and wants to help us, but we need to ask for God’s help and the help of the saints and the help of the angels. They are just ready to come to our aid, but too few are asking. Further we have to realize that our faith will be and has been and shall always be attacked by the world and by the evil one. We have to resist this attack. The world engenders complacency. We have to resist complacency. The evil one engenders fear. We have to resist fear. Neither is from God. Along with complacency the world also fans the flames of cynicism about people, skepticism about religion, and overall mockery of the very idea of God. This is the way the world actually is. Our faith, however, encourages us to have hope in the basic goodness of people. After all, we are—this is our faith; it’s our belief—we are made in the image and likeness of God. And given God’s grace, our goodness approaches the infinite in potential. That is something we need to reflect on. Given the grace of God, our potential for goodness approaches the infinite. And as people of faith we should keep that in mind, and we should make that public, and we should celebrate that. Our faith also encourages us to rise up in action once we are sure that God has called us to something. This, of course, cannot be rash. It should not be the reaction to some idea or some emotion. It should be the result of prayerful study and reflection. Again, there is no one who has ever been baptized who does not have a role to play assigned from God to aid in the salvation of the world. We have to believe in our own mission, which is the mission of the Church. This is why we are Church. It is to aid in the salvation of the world. Advent is a time for us to become more acutely aware of what it is God is asking of us, and to hear God’s call we need prayer; we need quiet.

  • A JOURNEY from THIS WORLD to the NEXT by Henry Fielding
    1 A JOURNEY FROM THIS WORLD TO THE NEXT By Henry Fielding INTRODUCTION Whether the ensuing pages were really the dream or vision of some very pious and holy person; or whether they were really written in the other world, and sent back to this, which is the opinion of many (though I think too much inclining to superstition); or lastly, whether, as infinitely the greatest part imagine, they were really the production of some choice inhabitant of New Bethlehem, is not necessary nor easy to determine. It will be abundantly sufficient if I give the reader an account by what means they came into my possession. Mr. Robert Powney, stationer, who dwells opposite to Catherine-street in the Strand, a very honest man and of great gravity of countenance; who, among other excellent stationery commodities, is particularly eminent for his pens, which I am abundantly bound to acknowledge, as I owe to their peculiar goodness that my manuscripts have by any means been legible: this gentleman, I say, furnished me some time since with a bundle of those pens, wrapped up with great care and caution, in a very large sheet of paper full of characters, written as it seemed in a very bad hand. Now, I have a surprising curiosity to read everything which is almost illegible; partly perhaps from the sweet remembrance of the dear Scrawls, Skrawls, or Skrales (for the word is variously spelled), which I have in my youth received from that lovely part of the creation for which I have the tenderest regard; and partly from that temper of mind which makes men set an immense value on old manuscripts so effaced, bustoes so maimed, and pictures so black that no one can tell what to make of them.

  • Toy Cars Down Steep Slopes By: Caitlin Turnage
    Toy Cars Down Steep Slopes By: Caitlin Turnage CHARACTER NAME BRIEF DESCRIPTION AGE GENDER CATHY Home owner 45 Female JACK Cathy's adventurous son 24 Male RAINY Cathy's diseased son 29 Male AMY Married to Rainy 27 Female SYNOPSIS: Cathy is a mother who has shoved her children out of her house with a tendency to hoard. However, when she's diagnosed with Huntington's disease she understands it's time to change--and time to move, but she can't do it without her estranged sons help. When the boys return, they have to come to terms with their mother's hereditary disease, and their own death sentence. PRODUCTION HISTORY: Staged Reading at the University of Houston Act I SCENE 1 Interior of a manufactured home in Mississippi. The home has been encased in brick to make it a permanent residence. In the main bedroom, shelves line the walls with various knickknacks. The room has a distinct theme of childhood whimsy. The room is somewhere between a collector’s haven and a hoarder’s hovel; it’s organized chaos. On one side of the bed is a piled collection of ceramic dish-ware. In another corner of the room are toy cars, some of them still in their shiny packages stacked high on top of each other. Coloring books and stickers and different objects with toy car or race car themes also litter this mountain. Along the back wall surrounding the bed is a book case lined with journals of all sizes and shapes. The journals on the left hand side are untouched and pristine, while the journals on the right side are worn and battered like someone’s tossed them around.

  • Rumors ~ by Badsquirrel Disclaimers: This Is an Original Work of Fiction
    ~ Rumors ~ by BadSquirrel Disclaimers: This is an original work of fiction. Any resemblance to actual persons, places or events is a complete and total accident. I only wish I knew these women and the town of Edgewater. In fact, if you know them, e-mail me at once. Content warning: There will be angst, sex, a little rough language and rampant lesbianism. If this is not your cup of tea, don't drink it. If you are not old enough to read this, you will be soon. This will still be here when you are older. If you live in a place where this is not legal...lock the door and have at it. Note: There is Spanish spoken in this story. I do not speak Spanish. Oh sure, I can count to ten if I'm not interrupted and I'm pretty sure I can order eggs, but Lord knows how they'll be served to me. Since I don't speak Spanish and didn't want to ask any of the very straight manly men at my day job to help me out, I used a free on-line translation service. I was so proud of myself. What did I know? It looked like Spanish. So I submitted the story. Turns out my translations bore about the same relation to Spanish as an omelet does to eggs. (I seem to keep bringing up eggs. Maybe I'm ovulating.) Anyway, I bow down to Webwarrior for unscrambling my omelet of Spanish, and Bardeyes for sending me the translations and letting me work them into the story.

  • Mack Wilds Afterhours Clean Version Free Download Snoop Dogg's Albums, Ranked
    mack wilds afterhours clean version free download Snoop Dogg's albums, ranked. Snoop Dogg first landed on the music world’s radar as Dr. Dre’s preferred collaborator on 1992’s The Chronic , and since then, he has unleashed solo albums and collaborative joints that have taken him to the top of the hip-hop world and always dancing on the fringes of pop music. In honor of his fine new album Bush , which is in stores Tuesday, here’s a deeply scientific ranking of Snoop’s albums, from worst to first. 14. Doggumentary (2011) The title for this album was originally batted around as some variation on Doggystyle 2 , and it’s fortunate that cooler heads prevailed to jettison that name, as Doggumentary has no business associating with Snoop’s finest work. It takes the form of a lot of his latter-day outings, but for some reason the chemistry is all wrong. As I noted in my review of Snoop’s latest album Bush , he’s pretty much the same on every release (which is to say there’s a baseline of quality work at the outset), and it’s up to his collaborators to tease out greater levels of his ineffable Snoopness. Just about everybody strikes out on Doggumentary , even though the list of guests includes Kanye West, Gorillaz, R. Kelly, Wiz Khalifa, Willie Nelson, and peaking-at-the-time T-Pain. Doggumentary is the longest album in Snoop’s catalog, and it feels even longer. 13. Tha Doggfather (1996) In the three years between Snoop’s breakout debut Doggystyle and the follow-up, the dude crammed in an awful lot of living: He became estranged from mentor Dr.

Dissertations - ALL. 1056. https://surface.syr.edu/etd/1056 This Dissertation is brought to you for free and open access by the SURFACE at SURFACE. It has been accepted for inclusion in Dissertations - ALL by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract This dissertation explores the life and work of the writer Wallace Stegner (1909-1993) and his intellectual efforts to create, clarify, and defend the contours of a “geography of hope” in the American West. Chapter 1 begins with Stegner’s move to California in 1945. In the context of his developing regional vision as expressed in early articles and books, it traces Stegner’s attempts to build a range of institutions in California as well as his first writings that either adopted the state as its subject or used it as a setting for fictional work. Chapter 2 explores a research project that Stegner undertook with funding from the Wenner-Gren Foundation and as a member of the Stanford Center for Advanced Studies in Behavioral Sciences (CASBS) in the mid-1950s. This project reflected Stegner’s understanding of western history and his own past in more comprehensive terms and the chapter traces his growing commitment to fiction as a resource for addressing the questions he thought most important to explore in his historical moment.
