Psalm 49:16-17 Temporary Things
Do not be afraid when one becomes rich, when the glory of his house is increased; for when he dies he shall carry nothing away; his glory shall not descend after him. Psalm 49:16-17
People are often amazed and in awe when they drive by a huge mansion of a home. They often see those large homes and dream of a day that they may own one of them, or get discouraged because they know with their…

How some states are reviving a push to tax the rich
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — Chuck Collins figures he won life’s lottery by inheriting vast sums of money through his great-grandfather Oscar Mayer’s processed meat company, but rather than fight to protect every dime Collins has helped push to hike taxes on the ultrarich like himself.
He was successful in helping implement a higher tax in Massachusetts on income over $1 million, and the idea has…

Greater attentiveness to God & the Least among us.
HOMILY for Thursday in Week 2 of Lent
Jer 17:5-10; Ps 1; Luke 16:19-31
The Gospels are full of little details, and none are superfluous but reveal something important. Today, for example, we’re told that “even the dogs came and licked [Lazarus’s] sores.” I used to think this was meant to emphasise the wretchedness of the poor man’s condition, which it certainly does. However, the point is that even dogs had pity on Lazarus, and they licked his sores in order to bring him some relief and comfort. The rich man, therefore, behaves worse than a beast because he doesn’t even have regard for a fellow human being. By ignoring the poor man, the rich man shows himself to be inhuman, loving only himself and his luxuries, and this same self-serving love is evident even after death, as he continues to think of Lazarus as someone to be ordered around to serve him. Ultimately, this is the danger of trusting in one’s wealth: Like all sin, it turns one in on oneself, such that we no longer care nor love others as persons, fellow human beings.
The Holy Father, in his message for Lent, thus reminds us that this holy season is meant to prevent this kind of sinful isolationism, by first of all opening ourselves to God through a prayerful listening to the Gospel; we must let the Word of God convict us and convert our hearts. Indeed, through the poor men and women who are with us always, we are challenged to see and to listen and to respond with love. As Pope Leo says: “In the midst of the many voices present in our personal lives and in society, Sacred Scripture helps us to recognize and respond to the cry of those who are anguished and suffering. In order to foster this inner openness to listening, we must allow God to teach us how to listen as he does. We must recognize that “the condition of the poor is a cry that, throughout human history, constantly challenges our lives, societies, political and economic systems, and, not least, the Church”.”
Of all the Church’s social teachings, the foundation and perhaps the most challenging is that of the Universal Destination of Goods. This teaches that every human person has a right to use the goods of the earth, given by God ultimately, so that he can “feed himself, grow, communicate, associate with others, and attain the highest purposes to which he is called”, namely, holiness of life. The Church calls on economic systems and governments, with due regard for private property and the enjoyment of goods acquired through labour and inheritance, to nevertheless serve this fundamental right and so to “contribute to making a more humane world.” This is the point made in St Luke’s Gospel, that the rich man clearly had more than he needed to live well and was living excessively – one purple garment, for example, was equivalent to several year’s wages for an ordinary labourer. The Catechism of the Catholic Church thus insists that “those who hold goods for use and consumption should use them with moderation, reserving the better part for guests, for the sick and the poor.” (CCC 2406)
The Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church, citing today’s Gospel, therefore warns that “Owners who heedlessly idolize their goods (cf. Mt 6:24, 19:21-26; Lk 16:13) become owned and enslaved by them. Only by recognizing that these goods are dependent on God the Creator and then directing their use to the common good, is it possible to give material goods their proper function as useful tools for the growth of individuals and peoples.” (CSD §181)
Today’s Gospel is thus a salutary challenge that prompts us to examine our consciences concerning God’s Providence of material goods, and how we use them, and how we regard the poor. Thus Pope Leo prayed that this Lent we would have the grace of “greater attentiveness to God and to the least among us.” Amen.
