LAYEFFORTANDTHELIGHTOFFAITH

Manypeople-apparentlyregardthe factthatgraceisneededforconversiontotheFaith,asclosinganypracticaldiscussionofthelayapostolate, writesCharlesI.Doyle,'S.J.,in "America."Becausegraceisneeded, theyseemtofeelvaguelythatnothing elseisneeded.

Graceissupernatural.Thework ofconversionisasupernaturalaffair.

Fromtheseundoubtedfactsthey seemtoleapillogicallytotheconclusionthathumanmeanscandonothing. TheyforgetthatOurLorddidnot say"Youcandonothing,"but"WithoutMeyoucandonothing."

Yetthefactsarefarfromjustifyingsuchanoutcome.Graceisneed ed,buthumanmeanscan.be,andorclI.inarilyare,theinstrumentsoroccasionsofgrace.Someconversionsthere arewherehumanmeansplayavery minorpart,ornoneatall.Inothers, tarmorenumerous,man'sinfluence withhisfellowsisthechiefmeans whichGodinHisprovidenceusesfor manyofthepreparatorysteps.This doesnotmeanthatsuchconversions arenottheworkofgrace.Theyare trulysupernatural.Buttheyarepreparedbynaturalagencies,prompted bynaturalhumanmeans.

HeartofJesus--ExampleofMeekness

Perhaps.thereisnovirtuewhich manifestssuchsupernaturalstrength asthevirtueofmeekness.Jesus Himselfsaid:"LearnofMe,becauseI ammeek" Themanifestationofangeris,asageneralrule,asignofweakness.

Jesusdisplayedwhatlookedlike angerwhenHedrovethebuyersand sellersfromthetemplebecausethey weremakingofHisHeavenlyFather's houseaplaceoftraffic.But,inreality,itwasnotanger.Itwasreally themanifestationofseal.Heoverturnedthetablesofthemoneychangers:butwhenHecametothosewho hadonlyafewdoves,He,changedHis attitudeandaskedthemmerelyto "Takethesethingsaway."

TheHeartofJesushereshowsIts greatnessandItskindness.OurLord knewthatfromhenceforth'Hewould incurthedispleasureofthesewealthy money-changers,andthatHewould haveleaguedagainstHim,thesecret powerexercisedbythosewhocontrolledpublicopiniononaccountof theirholdonthesourceofwealth.But therewashere,questionof'HisHeavenlyFather'sglory.Jeansthought onlyofpromotingGod'sglory,and performingHisFather'sWill.

Supernaturalmeeknessmustnotbe confoundedwithcowardice.Therewas nothingcowardlyaboutJesus.Pilate whocondemnedHimtodeathwasa moralcoward.HeknewthatJesus wasinnocent;andyet,forfearof beingreport&toCaesar,Hepassed theunjustsentenceupontheSaviour. WeseenthemanlinessofJesuswhen HestoodinthepresenceofHerod. Thisworthless.creaturewishedfor somesignfromOurLordtogratify thecuriosityofhimselfandhiscourt. ButJesuswouldnotactthebuffoon topleaseHerod.norwouldHeexercise Hismiraculouspowerstogainthefavourofthispowerfulbutsinfulruler. OurLordnevereven.ouchsafedone .,ordnoroneglancetothepleasure lovingHerod.

Butweseethetruemeeknessof lesuswhenJudahwasbetrayingHim. liesaidtothetraitor:"Friend,wheretoartthoucome?"Hehadcompassiononthefallenapostle,andtried evenintheendtosavethesoulof ludas.WeseeJesusagainasHe hangsontheCross.cryingout:

JesusneverthoughtofHimself.This wastheexplanationofHisgreatmeekness.HecalledthePharisees"whited sepulchres"notbecausetheygavetroubletoHimself.buttowarnothers thattheymustnotfollowtheirexample.JesussoughtonlyHisFather's glory,andHealwaysdidHisFather's Will.liewasthereforemeek.He

Heeverseekthefriendshipofthe greatorthepowerful.

TheSacredHeartisnotonlythe .:xample,butthesourceofallsupernaturalmeekness.Wecannotbe meekwithoutGod'sgrace.TheHeart ofJesuscontainstreasuresofgraces, ifwewillonlyacceptthemanddisposeourselvesforthem.Meekness satisfiesforsins,-and,atthesame time,givesus,aninfluenceoverthe heartsofothers.

Inapublicaddressbeforeanaudiencemadeupofrepresentativesofall thebranchesofscience,Rev.Dr.Thauren,aneminentmemberoftheMission HouseofSt.Gabriel,conductedbythe SocietyoftheWordofGod,inVienna, madethisstatement.St.Gabriel'sis, ineffect,agreatobservatorythrough whichCatholicscientistsareenabled tofolloweventsoftheworldwithout muchexactness.Itwasfromamong thesavantsoftheMissionHouseofSt. GabrielthattheHolyFatherchose theheadsofthenewEthnologicalMuseumattheVatican,FathersSchmidt andShulien.FatherThauren,speakingontheBolshevistmenace,said:
