Points to Ponder

Today’s gospel goes to the heart of our Cistercian life. Our spiritual ancestors such as Saint Anthony of the Desert, St Francis and St Benedict adopted lives of penance and simplicity when they didn’t ultimately need to. For many people the decisions that these great Saints made was weird. They turned away from wealth and grandeur and privilege, and embraced the kind of life that we live here at Mount St Joseph Abbey. At the centre of our vocation is the desire to communicate with our creator. This desire transcends the need and desire for temporal goods, money and worldly power, and for any of the other vacuous trappings of life. The decision that these Saints made is not necessarily a single decision but had to be remade sometimes on a daily basis. This is what we call daily conversion. Starting again. In other words, getting back up again when we fall flat on our faces. Looking into a bank account full of savings is wonderful because we see the result. But building a spiritual store house is not so easy. We may feel totally useless or incapable, even after much effort in the spiritual sphere. But the storehouses of Heaven are a mystical place and we do not fully understand them. God wants us in some ways to experience the full range of humanity, and this includes the truth of failure, of not being any good. Yet all of this is part of our store, part of the gift that God gives us towards becoming members of his Kingdom.
