The zeal of St. Andrew

Andrew left his occupation immediately to follow Jesus. He had reported to his brother Peter, "We have found the Messiah." This shows no sign of doubt or uncertainty. He knew; evidently he was already aware of the credentials Jesus fulfilled. Evidently he was already zealous regarding his coming. So must we be; not only because his zeal puts us to shame, but because this very fact--that we have been put to shame--makes our own discovery of Jesus all the more needful. And so may we say with as much gusto, on attending to the Holy Gospel and Blessed Sacrament of his Body and Blood given and shed for us, for the remission of sins, using Andrew's own words: We have found the Messiah.  Sermon for St. Andrew's Day.
