Published 8:16 PM EST Feb 4, 2016As you may recall, I shared with you in my last column that I would write about the 7 Spiritual Works of Mercy, just as I wrote about the 7 Corporal Works of Mercy. But I did issue a caveat.
Doing the 7 Corporal Works of Mercy is a lot easier than doing the 7 Spiritual Works of Mercy. Why you may ask? Because doing the spiritual works of mercy requires much more humility, much disciplined charity and the ability to speak so as not to appear “better than thou” or nagging. So here goes.
Courtesy. To instruct the ignorant. This work of mercy means all of us are called to share and teach the faith passed on to us. This of course means that we must know our faith and what our church really teaches. And the best way to instruct and to teach is by example. To counsel the doubtful. Every one of us has doubts and questions about our faith.
Even Mother Teresa had dark nights of the soul wherein she felt doubt and despair. This work of mercy reminds us how important it is to walk closely with people going through transitions, loss or great trials, holding them up in prayer and companionship.
To admonish the sinner. This one is very hard to do, especially if one is honest about his/her own life. “People in glass houses should not throw stones,” or Pope Francis’ own remarkable words, “Who am I to judge?” But, nonetheless this third work of mercy calls us to dialog with others about any sinful behavior that may exist. Here is where love and charity need to be used with words chosen carefully so that one doesn’t come off preachy, nagging or “holier than thou”. This one is not easy. To bear wrongs patiently. Here our pride is the culprit and revenge the temptation.
The words of Jesus, “Turn the other cheek” ring out, but that is not easy to do. And I think it is sometimes harder to endure wrongs and to be patient with hardship when someone is doing harm to our children or grandchildren. To forgive offenses willingly. This work of mercy is inseparably bound with the patient endurance of wrongdoing. Forgiveness takes time, and even though one does not feel completely at peace with the other, the desire to want to forgive is the beginning of the road to full forgiveness. What helps me to forgive another is the promise from the Lord Jesus, “As many times as you forgive others, Keith, that’s how many times I’ll forgive you.”. To comfort the afflicted.
There are times when we see someone going through a bad time and we can’t take it away from him or from her. Our words are inadequate and our actions pointless. All we can do is walk silently with him or her in love and prayer. I’ll never forget what my classmate in seminary did for me one day.
Poker night at the inventory tf2 items. Knowing I was so sad and fearful as Momma was dying, Bill tapped me on the shoulder one day in chapel and said, “I am thinking that you may be having a hard time to pray right now. I am praying extra right now in your stead.”. To pray for the living and the dead. Clearly the most important part of any work of mercy, be it spiritual or corporal, is prayer.
Prayer that seeks to unite us to God changes the physical act of feeding the poor into a spiritual act that does good to another and gives God the glory. As one writer says, “Our private intercession for our neighbors and for the departed brings us little fame or admiration from others, but in the end, when we stand before God, we will be able to give an account of our prayerful mercy to others, and so Jesus will in turn show us mercy.”This concludes the spiritual list and along with the corporal works of mercy we can do our part to make the world a holier place, all the while growing in holiness ourselves.
