First Reading: Isaiah 48: 17-19
Responsorial Psalm: Psalms 1: 1-2, 3, 4 and 6
Gospel: Matthew 11: 16-19
In today’s Gospel, Jesus is highlighting the harsh reality of being judged by others. John the Baptist was deemed to be too radical for his austere and solitary way of life and Jesus himself considered too ordinary. Our world is full of prejudices and preconceived notions. Jesus desires us to be free of our prejudices and instead be rooted in and guided by His truth.
This is the 1330th installment of our CFC contemplation series focusing on the daily liturgical readings.
[NOTE: As we continue to pray for Bro Bong Arjonillo’s healing and recovery, let us listen to our brother Jess Ferrer, Head of Migrants Program, 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]
