He has been raised from the dead; that is why mighty powers are at work in him.\u201d Now Herod had arrested John, bound him, and put him in prison on account of Herodias, the wife of his brother Philip, for John had said to him, \u201cIt is not lawful for you to have her.\u201d Although he wanted to kill him, he feared the people, for they regarded him as a prophet. But at a birthday celebration for Herod, the daughter of Herodias performed a dance before the guests and delighted Herod so much that he swore to give her whatever she might ask for. Prompted by her mother, she said, \u201cGive me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist.\u201d The king was distressed, but because of his oaths and the guests who were present, he ordered that it be given, and he had John beheaded in the prison. His head was brought in on a platter and given to the girl, who took it to her mother. His disciples came and took away the corpse and buried him; and they went and told Jesus.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Opening Prayer:<\/strong> Lord, this Gospel always brings to my mind the weakness and corruption we are so capable of without grace. Please bless me as I contemplate more deeply this sad account of John the Baptist\u2019s death.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Encountering Christ:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<li><strong>Bad Leadership:<\/strong> Herod ordered John the Baptist killed because he had sworn in front of the palace guests to give Salome up to half of the kingdom. Herod made a rash decision driven by his own vanity. Leadership that is solely dependent upon what the flock thinks is weak leadership. Queen Herodias exploited her husband\u2019s weaknesses and her daughter\u2019s charm when she asked her daughter to dance for the head of John the Baptist. Leadership that exploits others is corrupt leadership. We are called to exercise Christ-centered servant leadership, where the good of the other motivates decision-making. This kind of leadership is a spiritual gift requiring diligence (cf. Rom 12:8), best exercised by individuals grounded in daily prayer and the sacraments.\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Paranoia Blinds:<\/strong> Herod mistook Jesus for the ghost of John the Baptist, the man he had imprisoned and murdered. Why? The Scripture tells us Herod \u201cfeared the people,\u201d lived with his brother\u2019s wife, and capitulated when Herodias\u2019s daughter asked for John\u2019s head on a platter. He apparently succumbed to his lustful and gluttonous passions while making several important decisions. Moreover, he was fearful and paranoid that John, who had mighty powers, would haunt him. Knowing how sin darkens the intellect and clouds judgment, we might deduce that Herod\u2019s sins adversely affected his spiritual discernment. He failed to recognize Jesus. By contrast, believers in Jesus accept the freedom from sin that he offers through the sacraments and, by his grace, see more clearly his actions in our lives.\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Peace in Adversity:<\/strong> Jesus said of John the Baptist, \u201cAmong those born of women there has been none greater than John the Baptist.\u201d (Mt 11:11). When Jesus said this, John was in Herod\u2019s dungeon, destined for beheading. I wonder what John would have thought had he overheard Jesus\u2019s statement? John\u2019s inauspicious circumstances call to mind what St. Teresa of Avila said to Jesus many years later, \u201cIf this is how you treat your friends, no wonder you have so few.\u201d Although Scripture doesn\u2019t record John\u2019s words or thoughts from captivity, he was probably peaceful. Saint Alphonsus Ligouri says, \u201cThe more a person loves God, the more reason he has to hope in him. This hope produces in the saints an unutterable peace, which they preserve even in adversity, because as they love God, and know how beautiful he is to those who love him, they place all their confidence and find all their repose in him alone.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Conversing with Christ:<\/strong> Lord, Herod seemed like a despicable character\u2014weak-willed, sensual, and vain. It\u2019s easy to judge his behavior and presume I\u2019ll never stoop so low. Please give me the grace to remember that any good I do I owe to your initiative. You created me and loved me first.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Resolution:<\/strong> Lord, today by your grace I will make a good examination of conscience and offer some reparation for my weaknesses.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maribeth Harper celebrated paying the last tuition bill for her kids\u2019 college by writing a book for parents who have college-aged young adults: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Spiritual-Toolbox-Parenting-through-College\/dp\/B0C6BX5G3R\">A Spiritual Toolbox: Tips for Parenting through the First Year of College<\/a>.
