Family of an unusual love<\/em><\/p>\n

God wants us, who belong to his family now, to love to the end.<\/p>\n

Interestingly, b\u00eat\u2019\u0101b<\/em> in Hebrew, literally \u201cthe father\u2019s house,\u201d is translated too as \u201cfamily,\u201d which indicates the patriarchal character of the Hebrew family. But, of course, there is in God no male chauvinism that \u201cpatriarchal\u201d may connote.<\/p>\n

God means the total and mutual love between the Father and the Son that is personified in the Holy Spirit. This love overflows, pouring itself into our hearts. Hence, to be grafted into God\u2019s Family, each family must be characterized by total, mutual and overflowing love, and earnestly take the Holy Family as exemplary model.<\/p>\n

Jesus, Mary and Joseph love God with all their being and their neighbors as themselves. Surely included among neighbors are widows, orphans, foreigners, afflicted and excluded people. Later on, Jesus, as a teacher, will affirm the supreme importance of \u201cthe two commandments of love that sum up the message of the Gospel<\/a>.\u201d Also, it will be his mission to evangelize the poor and to heal the sick and the afflicted. But would the adult Jesus be capable of such affirmation and mission had he not lived in the context of the family these two commandments?<\/p>\n

And Jesus, Mary and Joseph are practicing Jews; they go up to Jerusalem to celebrate feasts according to custom. Yet they do not settle for customary observance that could easily turn out perfunctory, worthless, loathsome.<\/p>\n

Mary, attentive to God\u2019s word in all circumstances of life, loses nothing of what is said to her (SV.FR IX:404); she keeps in her heart all she sees and hears and reflects on them, so that she gets to know how to read the signs of the times<\/a>.<\/p>\n

So much does Joseph have God ever before him that he dreams of Divine Providence. Even in the dark nights of life, he sees God\u2019s reassuring light.<\/p>\n

Only twelve years old, Jesus makes clear that he must be in his Father\u2019s house, fully and radically committed to the law and the prophets, to justice beyond custom. Hence, he does not only listen to the teachers; he also questions them, \u201cspeaking honestly<\/a>\u201d, so to suppose, \u201cwith parrhesia<\/em>, without polite deference, without hesitation.\u201d Sure, teachers and religious leaders will later question him also; they will even exact from him the supreme sacrifice.<\/p>\n

And whenever we remember his love to the utmost, which refers us back to Abraham\u2019s faith and detachment and to Elkanah\u2019s and Hannah\u2019s also, we are impelled by the same love to conduct ourselves as Jesus, Mary and Joseph, so that we may have part with God\u2019s Family.<\/p>\n

Lord, make us true to our character as members of your family.<\/em><\/p>\n
