Homily for the Thirty-Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time, delivered in Our Lady Star of the Sea Church, Gladstone, Qld.
"The Lord says this: I am going to look after my flock myself and keep all of it in view. As a shepherd keeps all his flock in view when he stands up in the middle of his scattered sheep, so shall I keep my sheep in view. I shall rescue them from wherever they have been scattered during the mist and darkness. I myself will pasture my sheep, I myself will show them where to rest – it is the Lord who speaks. I shall look for the lost one, bring back the stray, bandage the wounded and make the weak strong. I shall watch over the fat and healthy. I shall be a true shepherd to them. As for you, my sheep, the Lord says this: I will judge between sheep and sheep, between rams and he-goats." (cf. Ez 34:11).
"The Lord is my shepherd, there is nothing I shall want." (Ps 23).
"Christ has been raised from the dead, the first-fruits of all who have fallen asleep; he must be king until he has put all his enemies under his feet and the last of the enemies to be destroyed is death, for everything is to be put under his feet. And when everything is subjected to him, then the Son himself will be subject in his turn to the One who subjected all things to him, so that God may be all in all." (cf 1 Cor 15).
"Jesus said to his disciples: ‘When the Son of Man comes in his glory, escorted by all the angels, then he will take his seat on his throne of glory. All the nations will be assembled before him and he will separate men one from another as the shepherd separates sheep from goats. He will place the sheep on his right hand and the goats on his left... [the latter] will go away to eternal punishment, [but the former] to eternal life.’" (cf. Mt 25).
