Perseverance in seeking the Kingdom<\/em><\/p>\n

Jesus is the sublime example of the person who attains salvation through perseverance in fostering the kingdom of God.<\/h3>\n

Jesus says, \u201cSeek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you besides.\u201d\u00a0 But he does not only preach; he also practices what he preaches.\u00a0 His life and works show his perseverance in fostering what matters most that God wants.<\/p>\n

In the first place, at his baptism, he insists that he and John comply fully with the Father\u2019s will.\u00a0 And doing thus what God wants, Jesus inserts himself into the group of the poor.<\/p>\n

In the second place, Jesus resists the devil.\u00a0 The devil wants nothing more than to prevent him from carrying out fully his mission.\u00a0 But Jesus rejects the enticing idea of a magician messiah.\u00a0 He also refuses to be a presumptuous messiah who boasts of divine protection even in his childish games.<\/p>\n

In the third place, Jesus resoundingly affirms that he worships God alone and trusts fully in him only.\u00a0 He does not put his trust in power or money.\u00a0 Exceedingly fleeting, power and money are not reliable.\u00a0 If they come from injustice and greed, they carry within them the seed of destruction.<\/p>\n

The same God whom Jesus serves has entrusted to him the mission of evangelization.<\/h4>\n

The mission of God\u2019s Anointed is to announce the Good News.\u00a0 And since it is the poor that he addresses, all the more reason he has to renounce power and wealth.\u00a0 He considers himself the lowly Messiah, the Lord\u2019s Suffering Servant.<\/p>\n

Indeed, Jesus counts himself among the poor.\u00a0 He proclaims them blessed, because the kingdom of God is theirs.\u00a0 Moreover, God reveals the mysteries of his kingdom to such people of simplicity and perseverance.<\/p>\n

And poorer and more insecure than foxes and birds, Jesus goes around to towns and villages to carry out his mission.\u00a0 He teaches, proclaims the Gospel of the Kingdom and cures every disease and illness.\u00a0 With perseverance, he goes about doing good and denouncing both apathy and greed.<\/p>\n

In the fourth place, Jesus\u2019 perseverance in his hard work for the Gospel stands out until the end.\u00a0 He does not surrender to the Deceiver whom mockers represent.\u00a0 He pays no attention to those who tell him, \u201cIf you are the King of the Jews, save yourself.\u201d\u00a0 Instead, he perfects his sacrifice, crying out, \u201cFather, into your hands I commend my spirit.\u201d<\/p>\n

So then, Jesus does not panic in the midst of trials and tribulations.\u00a0 Even in darkness, the sun of justice and healing shines upon him.\u00a0 He thus gives witness.<\/p>\n

Lord, give us the grace of perseverance until death (SV.EN IX:284<\/a>).<\/em><\/p>\n
