A Note From Emily Hamilton,
Coordinator of Faith Formation

Did you ever have the “gym-class dodgeball” experience where you all lined up and then two team captains chose their teams in a draft style strategy? The captains usually used skill level or friend loyalty to decide who they chose first. Either way someone was always the last one to be chosen and would unenthusiastically join their team knowing where they stood in desirability.
How does that memory of being chosen by a team captain affect the bigger reality that God, the supreme “team captain”, has chosen you at your Baptism, strengthened you at your Confirmation, and then daily chooses you to go out and be his disciple? If you’re like me, it depends on the day about how I respond to being chosen. Sometimes I’m amped up, ready to compete and fight the good fight, other times I prefer to be the last one chosen so the expectations for holiness would be lowered, and there are even times I would rather have not been chosen at all because the call seems too big for my little, wimpy, insufficient self. In mixes of emotions like these the Lord knows that we need the battle cries from this weekend’s readings to rally His troops, keep us focused on the end goal (Hint: it has to do with eternity), and remind us that we are insufficient to do this work, but he has equipped us with the power of the Holy Spirit to give us jacked-up spiritual muscles for battle.
Amos, whose humble past as a shepherd and tending Sycamore trees indicates he’d be a last-pick in dodgeball, has the courage to rebuke the priest Amaziah and witness to him that he, Amos, is doing the work that the Lord God chose him to do. St. Paul, whose whole life after his conversion was pure witness to the saving power of God, gives us a kind of half-time pep-talk as he reminds us that “in him we were also chosen, destined in accord with the purpose of the One who accomplishes all things according to the intention of his will” (Eph 1:11) In the Gospel the 12 apostles live out what a chosen team led by the Holy Spirit can do when Jesus sends them out to cure the sick and drive out demons bringing physical and spiritual healing to all that welcomed them.
So if you are struggling to accept that you are a chosen son or daughter called to use the gifts of the Holy Spirit, I encourage you to pray into that and maybe find out why. You may learn about the different lives of the Saints because as chosen sons and daughters they connect the dots back in time to those chosen in today’s readings. Or you can try watching “The Chosen” series produced by Angel Studios which shows the humanity found in the Gospels and how Jesus chooses them just as he chooses us now. I pray that together you and I can daily say yes to being chosen so that like St Paul we can glorify God in our “yes” to him. I’m pretty sure in this game of dodgeball, no one on Team Jesus can get knocked out.
Working towards making the daily choice,
Emily Hamilton
