Let’s examine some of the themes we find in the Mass readings for the 25th Sunday of the Year.
1st Reading – Wisdom 2:12,17-20
The just person is beset by the wicked, who threaten revilement and torture to test for patience and gentleness.
The wicked will condemn the just person to death, to see if God will offer care and protection.
Psalm – 54:3-8
“The Lord upholds my life.”
In the face of oppression and attack, we call upon the Lord for help and defense.
2nd Reading – James 3:16-4:3
War and conflict arises from the passions and desires within us.
Wisdom and peace arise from what is above, fostering virtue and fruitfulness.
Gospel – Mark 9:30-37
Jesus offers the second prophecy of his passion.
After hearing how the disciples were arguing about who was the greatest, Jesus places a child in their midst and speaks about becoming the servant of all.
