TOPIC: AM I READY TO GO WHEREVER GOD IS INVITING ME TO BE?

First Reading: Philippians 2: 5-11

Alleluia: Matthew 11: 28
Gospel: Luke 14: 15-24

Sometimes even good things like service or missionary activities can be distractions that hinder us from actually fulfilling God's call for us in a particular time and place. Anything that stops us from fulfilling God's specific call is definitely not according to His will. As servants, we must remember that our basic posture and duty is to make ourselves available to follow His will, and it is in His will that we will experience the fullness of His plan, beyond what our minds can imagine.

This is the 1654th installment of our CFC contemplation series focusing on the daily liturgical readings.

[NOTE: Let us listen to our brother Lawrence Quintero, a member of the CFC International Council, as he brings us today's reflection.

All the regular reflections are between 3-7 minutes long, enough time for us to ponder what God's message is for us individually and to pray that we may live them out in our lives. This video is also available on Couples for Christ’s Facebook page. In You Tube, just type ONLY BY GRACE REFLECTIONS]
