dir=\"ltr\">Pontificio Collegio Filippino de Nuestra Se\u00f1ora de la<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">Paz y Buen Viaje<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">,<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">I am pleased that we can meet and commemorate the five-hundredth anniversary of the<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">evangelization of the Philippines and of the celebration of the first Holy Mass, which took place on<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">Easter Sunday, 31 March 1561. There is another, more recent, anniversary that also deserves to<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">be remembered: that of the foundation of your College on 29 June 1961. Saint John XXII<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">personally inaugurated the College on 7 October of that year. Together let us thank the Lord for<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">these sixty years of priestly formation, which have provided many seminarians and priests with the<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">opportunity to grow as priests according to the heart of Christ for the service of the People of God<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">in the Philippines.<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">As we reflect on these anniversaries, I would like to share with you <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">some thoughts about time<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">. Our<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">life takes shape in time and time is itself a God-given gift, to be used responsibly to express our<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">gratitude to him, to do good works and to look to the future with hope. I thank the Rector for his<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">kind words, and I am glad Cardinal [Tagle] is with you. This is a beautiful thing. Now let us return<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">to our thoughts about time.<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">First, let us reflect on the <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">past<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">, the history that is part of every individual and every life. Going back<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">in time, even centuries, as we are doing for the birth of the Church in the Philippines, is like<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">returning in memory, retracing the footsteps of those who came before us, to the very origins of<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">your faith, with a sense of gratitude and wonder for all that you have received. Every anniversary<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">is an opportunity to flick through our \u201cfamily album\u201d, to remember where we come from and the<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">experiences of faith and the testimonies to the Gospel that have made us who we are today.<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">Memory. A \u201cDeuteronomic\u201d memory; a memory that is always at the basis of daily life. The<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">memory of the journey made so far &#8230; \u201cRemember, be mindful\u201d, said Moses in Deuteronomy.<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">\u201cRemember past times, the graces of God, do not forget\u201d. Remember your roots. Paul said to<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">Timothy: \u201cRemember your mother, your grandmother\u201d. The roots, the memory. So too, the author<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">of the Letter to the Hebrews tell us: \u201cRemember <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">pristinos dies<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">, those early days, and remember<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">those who proclaimed the Gospel to you\u201d. A Christianity without memory is an encyclopedia, not a<\/span><\/p><div class=\"page\" data-page-number=\"1\" data-loaded=\"true\"><div class=\"annotationLayer\">\u00a0<\/div><\/div><div class=\"page\" data-page-number=\"2\" data-loaded=\"true\"><div class=\"canvasWrapper\">\u00a0<\/div><\/div><p><span dir=\"ltr\">way of life.<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">Memory is important for an entire people, but also for every single person. Each of us should think<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">back on the many beautiful and not so beautiful, the good and not so good memories we have, but<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">always seeing in them God\u2019s providence. Reflecting on the past reminds us of those who first<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">helped us fall in love with Jesus \u2013 a parish priest, a nun, our grandparents, or parents \u2013 to whom<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">we are indebted for this greatest of gifts. For priests, we think especially of the time we discovered<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">our vocation, the moment when we said our first convinced \u201cyes\u201d to God\u2019s call, and the day of our<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">ordination.<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">Whenever you feel weary and disheartened, downcast as the result of some setback or failure \u2013<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">and this is the case with everyone \u2013 <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">look back on your history<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">, not to find refuge in an idealized<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">past, but to regain the momentum and passion of your \u201cfirst love\u201d, the one spoken of by Jeremiah<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">(cf. <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">Jer<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\"> 2:2). Go back to your first love. It is good to retrace the steps God has taken in our life, the<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">times when his path crossed ours to correct, encourage, renew, redirect and pardon us. In that<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">way, we come to see clearly that the Lord has never abandoned us, that he has always been at<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">our side, sometimes quietly, sometimes clearly, even at times that seemed to us darkest and most<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">arid.<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">If the past can help us be more aware of the firmness of our faith and vocation, the <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">future<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">broadens our horizons and teaches us hope. The Christian life is by its nature projected towards<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">the future, both the immediate future and that more distant future, at the end of time, when we will<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">encounter the Risen Lord who has gone to prepare a place for us in the Father\u2019s House (cf. <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">Jn<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">14:2).<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">If remembering the past should not turn into self-absorbed introspection, we should also avoid <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">the<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">temptation to take refuge in the future<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\"> and not serenely confront the present. If we are in the<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">seminary, everything is dreary, because all we can think about is what life will be like after<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">ordination. If we have been given a pastoral responsibility, as soon as the first difficulties arise, we<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">already start thinking about other, supposedly better assignments. The result is like a sinful and<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">immature flight to the future in order to escape from the present. The real future is anchored in the<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">present and in the past. Many people go on like this for years, or for a lifetime, without ever being<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">converted. It is like having a constant spirit of complaint about everything. Instead, we need to look<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">both forward and backward. You have God\u2019s promises and his election. Make that a covenant that<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">you constant bear with you. Do not wander around in the labyrinth of your complaints and<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">dissatisfactions. That is the start of a very nasty disease, a bitterness of soul.<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">Dear priests \u2013 but this also applies to you who are consecrated, to the lay faithful, and to all of you<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">\u2013 do not be <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">eternal procrastinators<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">, always putting off to hopefully better times and places \u2013 a<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">utopia in the bad sense \u2013 that postpones the chance to do some good in the here and now. Do not<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">live in constant \u201capnea\u201d, simply tolerating the present and waiting for it to pass. \u201cYes, Lord, maybe<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">2<\/span><\/p><div class=\"canvasWrapper\">\u00a0<\/div><p><span dir=\"ltr\">tomorrow&#8230;\u201d. The tomorrow that never comes.<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">Looking to the <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">future<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\"> in a positive sense means having a <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">prophetic gaze<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">, the gaze of a disciple<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">who, in fidelity to the Master and the task set before him, can look ahead, seeing possibilities and<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">working in accordance with his own vocation to make them happen, acting as a docile instrument<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">in God\u2019s hands.<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">Now that we have \u201ctraveled\u201d to the past and to the future, let us return to the <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">present<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">, the only time<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">we now possess and are called to use for a journey of conversion and growth in holiness. God is<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">calling us in the present, not yesterday, not tomorrow, but this very day, with its difficulties,<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">sufferings and disappointments \u2013 and also our sins. These are not to be refused or avoided, but<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">embraced and loved as opportunities that the Lord is offering us to be ever more closely united to<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">him, even on the cross.<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">Now, dear friends, is the <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">time to be decisive<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">. As priests, you are in Rome to study and to receive<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">ongoing formation in the community of this College. You are not being asked to yearn for the<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">parishes you once served or to dream about the \u201cprestigious\u201d positions your Bishop will give you<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">on your return&#8230; This is day dreaming. Instead, you are being asked to love this concrete<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">community, to serve the brothers and sisters that God has given you \u2013 and not speak ill of them \u2013<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">and to take advantage of the pastoral experiences set before you. That is the reason you were<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">sent here, to be serious and diligent in your studies. As Saint John Paul II said to your<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">predecessors, \u201cthrough your commitment to your studies, you will be prepared to carry out the<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">ministry of the word and to preach the mystery of salvation clearly and unambiguously,<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">distinguishing it from merely human opinions\u201d (2 June 2001).<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">So, know the past, prepare for the future and fully experience the present as an opportunity for<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">formation and growth in holiness. Embrace the opportunities that the Lord gives you to follow him<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">and to conform your life more closely to his, even though you are far from your beloved country,<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">the Philippines.<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">Let me conclude by repeating what Saint John XXIII said sixty years ago to the first community of<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">the Philippine College, expressing his hope that all priests may find here \u201ca source of abundant<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">faith and culture and a fraternal atmosphere, which will equip you to return to your homeland as<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">chosen heralds of truth\u201d (<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">Radio Message<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\">, 7 October 1961).
