THE BAPTISM OF THE LORD<br />
Reflecting on Humility on <strong>the</strong> Feast <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Baptism <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Lord<br />
Deacon Jim McKenzie<br />
What it means to be humble can be one <strong>of</strong> those touchy subjects.<br />
We are <strong>of</strong>ten called as Catholics to act out <strong>of</strong> a sense <strong>of</strong> humility, but<br />
we have a hard time determining what that is supposed to look like in<br />
our lives. Many people believe that humility is a sign <strong>of</strong> weakness.<br />
But <strong>the</strong> Baptism <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Lord shows us that humility can be a great<br />
spiritual gift and a source <strong>of</strong> true power in our lives. Humility has<br />
nothing to do with weakness and sometimes it’s hard for us to discern<br />
what humility has to do with our relationship to God. In order to do<br />
that we have to first be sure what we are talking about when we use<br />
<strong>the</strong> term humility.<br />
Humility has nothing to do with being forced into some sort <strong>of</strong><br />
submission and hopelessness and being expected to accept someone<br />
else having power over us. Genuine humility shown to us in <strong>the</strong> Baptism<br />
<strong>of</strong> Jesus is not self-conscious, self centered, and it is far from<br />
being weak. Genuine humility represents <strong>the</strong> greatest source <strong>of</strong> true<br />
power available to us.<br />
Humility becomes this great source <strong>of</strong> power for us only when we<br />
see humility as obedience to God. John <strong>the</strong> Baptist was constantly<br />
directing attention away from himself and toward <strong>the</strong> one who was to<br />
come. John shows us <strong>the</strong> true power <strong>of</strong> humility in his obedience to<br />
Jesus’ request to baptize him. When Jesus ask John to baptize him<br />
John said, “No I need to be baptized by you” but Jesus tells John, “No<br />
you baptize me for that is way we will do all that God requires.”<br />
Because Jesus is obedient to what requires <strong>of</strong> him, so John is obedient<br />
to Jesus and baptizes him. John Baptizes Jesus in humility and obedience.<br />
Jesus did not insist that John baptize him so that Jesus could<br />
repent <strong>of</strong> his own sinfulness. He insisted John baptize him because he<br />
saw that baptism as a dedication to <strong>the</strong> mission <strong>the</strong> fa<strong>the</strong>r had set<br />
before him. Baptism for Jesus was an act <strong>of</strong> humility and obedience<br />
to God. Jesus shows us that humility IS obedience to God.<br />
In fact, humility really makes little sense at all unless we<br />
understand it in relation to God. Humility, as we see in Jesus, is<br />
primarily concerned with our relationship to God, and spiritually<br />
transforming. Unlike Jesus we are not capable <strong>of</strong> perfect humility, but<br />
that doesn’t mean we can’t understand what a perfect humility to God<br />
looks like. Perfect humility would be a complete willingness, in all<br />
times, in all places, to find and do <strong>the</strong> will <strong>of</strong> God. Our quest for a<br />
perfect humility should begin with prayer in <strong>the</strong> morning asking God<br />
for <strong>the</strong> guidance and will to follow him in all aspects <strong>of</strong> our lives<br />
throughout this day. Our quest for a perfect humility should end with<br />
an inventory <strong>of</strong> our successes in following that will, and a prayer <strong>of</strong><br />
thanksgiving for <strong>the</strong> successes in showing God our humility through<br />
our obedience. Our quest for a perfect humility will always lead us to<br />
better relationships in our lives, for we cannot seek <strong>the</strong> will <strong>of</strong> God<br />
and be anything but honest, respectful and caring with o<strong>the</strong>rs.<br />
Our quest for a perfect humility will not be an attitude that o<strong>the</strong>rs<br />
see in us, but ra<strong>the</strong>r a spiritual condition that leads us to seek and do<br />
<strong>the</strong> will <strong>of</strong> God. Our quest for a perfect humility will lead us to a<br />
spiritual reorientation, with a gift <strong>of</strong> perfect freedom that can only<br />
come from obedience to God.<br />
Our prayer is that in <strong>the</strong> frailty <strong>of</strong> our human condition, we can<br />
stand humbly before God, see his will, answer with obedience, and<br />
enjoy <strong>the</strong> greatest source <strong>of</strong> true power in our world – HUMILITY.

ROOM IN THE INN<br />
Page 5<br />
The Room in <strong>the</strong> Inn program is a winter shelter program for <strong>the</strong> homeless. The<br />
<strong>Ca<strong>the</strong>dral</strong> hosts 30 to 40 homeless men every Tuesday evening from November through<br />
March. We give <strong>the</strong>m a warm place to sleep, a hot dinner, breakfast, and a sack lunch. We<br />
also provide showers, clean underwear and socks, toiletries, and movies for <strong>the</strong>m to watch.<br />
We would like to thank all <strong>the</strong> volunteers who have given <strong>the</strong>ir time, food, clothing, money etc. to get us through <strong>the</strong><br />
first couple <strong>of</strong> months. The men who stay with us are so grateful for a hot dinner and a warm place to sleep as well as <strong>the</strong><br />
o<strong>the</strong>r items we try to provide.<br />
There are a couple <strong>of</strong> areas where we really need additional help. Clothing items are in short supply. Boxers, t-shirts and<br />
long underwear are definitely needed. Large, Extra Large and 2X cover <strong>the</strong> most demand. If you pick up a package(s) <strong>of</strong> any<br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>se you can drop <strong>the</strong>m by <strong>the</strong> Fleming Center on Tuesday nights or leave <strong>the</strong>m in <strong>the</strong> boxes in <strong>the</strong> Nar<strong>the</strong>x. O<strong>the</strong>r items<br />
such as coats/jackets, shirts, pants, socks, shoes, gloves and hats are also always needed.<br />
We also need innkeeper volunteers to stay <strong>the</strong> night with our guests. Being an innkeeper has given me <strong>the</strong> opportunity to<br />
get to know many <strong>of</strong> our guests and to begin to understand <strong>the</strong> challenges <strong>the</strong>y face and how important Room In The Inn is<br />
to <strong>the</strong>m. Please feel free to contact me, Dave Bevis, at 615-483-3001 or dave@davebevis.com if you would like to volunteer<br />
or know more about being an innkeeper.<br />
