“Saint Matthias – Hope and Perseverance – Painting by Dino Carbetta” …

The artwork titled "Saint Matthias – Hope and Perseverance" depicts the determination and faith of the apostles after the Ascension of Jesus. Despite the challenges they faced in finding a replacement for Judas, they persisted in their quest to establish the new Israel through Jesus' disciples. The selection of a twelfth apostle was crucial, as it represented the twelve tribes of Israel. Peter suggested that the new apostle must have been a loyal disciple of Jesus from the beginning, who bore witness to his resurrection even in the face of opposition. Two men met this requirement: Matthias and Joseph called Barsabbas. After casting lots to discern God's will, Matthias was chosen as the twelfth apostle. He fulfilled his role as an apostle with unwavering commitment, evangelizing, facing persecution, and ultimately dying in the service of the Lord. The Acts of Andrew and Matthias document his inspiring story. According to historical accounts, the remains of St. Matthias the Apostle were transported to Italy by Saint Helena, who was the mother of Emperor Constantine. Some of these revered relics were later laid to rest at the Abbey of Santa Giustina in Padua. It is important to remember that Matthias' holiness was rooted in his acceptance of the relationship with the Father that Jesus presented to him. His unwavering faith and perseverance were strengthened by the Holy Spirit. The apostles are a foundation of our faith and a reminder that holiness is a gift from God that is available to everyone in our daily lives. We only need to be open to receiving it, and God will provide us with the strength to do so.
