THE U IVERSE

THIS year the w k le ding up to Christma have b en scarred by suffering. The devastating earthquake in Armenia w followed by the crash of two relief planes, then the rail disaster at CJ. phem Juncti , followed by the Pan Am plane disa ter in Scotland.

Our prayer. are offered for the souls of the dead while our hearts go out to families in their distress and loss. Once again people have responded magnificently to the ne ds of others. Rescuers, emergency services, medical and nur. ing teams have wotked timelessly not only here but also in Armenia.

The pain and bewilderment however, remain.

National di aster. and tragic accidents test our faith in a loving and omnipotent God. But the ba ic truth of the first Chri tmas helps us to see a littl. way into the darkness. The Christ Child of Bethlehem is the eternal witne to God's love for all hum nity.

In Christ th life nd love of God b come's the d epe t me ning of our human exi tence.

God i now nd for ever identified with all our joys nd arrow . He i at the heart of all our uffi ring. H never leaves u to be r the pain Ion .

In the eyes of many...

In the eyes of many people of biblical times.

Jesus was a failure - not at all the Messiah they expected. In this Advent instalment, the NC Reli· gious Education Package reflects on the theme of failure, a common enough reality in all of human life.

Father Herbert Weber explores the sense of failure Iha! man) people experience at one time or another.Self-worth is nol determined bv whether or nol one has failed al something. he say-, And to fail al something need nol be nippling. Bui the writer ,,,ution, Iha! if self-worth rs loo tightlv linked to one\ accnrnp-

lishments. a failun- can be devastating.

Jane Wolford Hughe, says that in the long run success means being the person God wants you to be. Successful living is possible even after a long pattern of losing decisions, she writes. Hut to achieve this. discipline is required along with openness lo signs calling for change.

Dominiran Father David J.;. O'Rourke zeroes in on the question of

Briefly ••• The desire to succeed is so strong that people may feel devastated by a quite small failure.

We thmk we're prepared lo handle success, Wen• nol sure whether we know ho" lo handle failure.

And we can ·1 even be sure Iha! we'd know what failure is if we came face lo fare wilh ii. We easily confuse failure with other realities.

There is. for example. a sense of inadequacy that emerges at various points in life.

People WJII complain that they can't gel everything done. can'! do everything on their own. aren't able to meet all the needs of I hose who are part of their lives.

Sometimes people develop a sense of failure by negatively comparing themselves with someone else.

Another person's lifestyle or career can look pretty good from the outside. What is easily lost from view is the fact that another person's vocation is di!Terent from their own vocation.

Comma to term, with our own vocation can be

quite a chall.,ng1• when societv so often communicate-, the rnr-ssa • that Wl' ought to ht• more like other people - to measure our surcess against someone else's standard. ·onelhele.-,,,, to recog-

nise our nwn vocation the unique gifts each of

us has as Cod's image is another form of maturitv, And ii is m too context of this vocation that our reflections on success and failure must occur. Bui this IS easier said than donel It is, of course. possible to fail at something. Bui usually we fail "at something", and do not thereby become "a failure".

Again, this is a difficult principle for people lo keep in mind.

We forget how well God keeps ii in mind hy remaining faithful to us, by offering forgiveness, by pointing us back toward the future, Easily forgollen. too, is the capac.ity we have to forgive. to help restore hope to each other and in these ways to be Godlike.

Events often unfold differently for us than we might have anticipated.

This can be confusing or frustrating. Actual failures or a false sense of failure may accompany the unfolding of events in our lives, But in neither case is the future closed. The future is full of surprises.

It is constantly reopening before us.

people and others. But this "failure" deeply influenced the C:OUrsP of the world.

Jesus failed everyone: his family, his townspeople, his disciples, his nation.

I was leading a discussion among university students when the topic focused on family pressures.

A wornan young reported that the first limp she had ever received a B rather than an A for a course was in her second vear After seeing her mark. her parents told her that she was "a complete disgrace to her family" Although the woman who told I he storv was trving lo laugh at what her parents had said. and although she did nol reallv believe Iha! a B

In the mids! of ChrLstmas preparations. there is a gre-at deal of emphasi.s on ha\"ing evcr.·thing "just right" for lhl' big holiday.

There is much desire not to disappoint anvone or lei others down. Because of lhesp attitudes. personal failures or struggles can be o,eremphasised. or buried ,vhere no one ,viii see them.

In the midst of the turmoil. ho,vever, Advent reminds Christians !hat Jesus rho"' to come into an imJl('rfect

Jesus preached to cro,vds ,,.,ho sometime, abandoned him. had disciples who denied him and even a special follower who belraved him. · Jesus. who spent much time among the unsuccessful. also must have fell the sorrow of failing.

But no amount of failing could diminish his mission of hope and compassion to this broken world.

How to judge succe s a nd failure

This is a story about a failure. At least he saw himself in that light. I pieced it together after he died, talking with his sister and his friends.

In 1910. when Jack wru. born, who people counted were supposed lo have big plans.

They talked about their dreams. And some people were prepared to tell themselves and others that they were on the road lo big thin!}�.

Jack's family owned a

farm. ri< h land in an expc1nrling art'tl He lik,·d farming. hut he thought thal it rnuld be more c.c 1rntifir:, more more plannrd t1nd profitahll'.

He decidrd he wasn't going to lcave school, as so man, of his friends did whe;, they were 15 or 16 to go oul inlo the fields.

He wantPd to go to university. When he came back he was going to turn a good farm into

the best. a real modr-l, As his younger sister said. "He had plans. oh did he have plans."

He was at the beginning of his second vear in University when the slack market er-ashed in 1929

His sister recalled his reaction: "Dad's loo old to be working 12 and 14 hours a day and now he can't afford to hire help.

There's no one else to help but me," So Jacl. shelved his

plans lemporarili lo help on the family farm. )ark also helped '<'\eral neighbours who simply couldn't hire extra hands.

They might joke about his trips to the town library to look at agricultural reports. but more than one said that the hours Jack added to his own long day kept them from foreclosure.

After the war, he could have returned to university.

Stella marrird Hank afler a "hirlwind romance which knocked her off balance. For a couple of years she rode an emotional lePlertoller until ,hr ,1ml llank divorced.

The experienc:e left Stella warped by what she thought wa� her failure to make the marriage work. Her poor self-image was an impediment in her life.

She found herself adding to her collection of failures.

After much urging from her family she attended a meeting of the parish's for support group

divorced people. She did not return although she recognised that others in th_egroupwerelabounng ,>1th a sense of failure too. But she said she wasn·1 ready to deal with ii.

The lo"esl point came the night she went to a singles bar. She found herself in a room crowded "ilh nois,· people. the stale air heavy \\ilh perfume, smoke and akohol.

All al once. the only thing she wanted was lo get out of the bar "How have I let my<;(>lf come to this?'" she ,�ondered. For rea.sons she c:ould not sort oul. she wanted to get awa) from there and be quiet. ··1 went home and let the !ears come," she said.

Stella is working now ,vith a counsellor and is back \\ilh the parish support group. With each successful, courageous act lo put her life together, her vision of the person God has r:alled her lo be grows more reverential. l don't suppose many of us become all that we dreamed of being. But in the long run, success is being the person God intended us to be. That's a lifelong challenge.
