First Reading: Jeremiah 31: 31-34
Responsorial Psalm: Psalms 51: 3-4, 12-13, 14-15
Second Reading: Hebrews 5: 7-9
Verse Before the Gospel: John 12: 26
Gospel: John 12: 20-33
Today’s gospel invites us to pursue a life of selflessness and sacrifice.
Jesus speaks of the transformative power of selflessness and sacrifice, comparing his impending crucifixion to a seed falling to the ground and bearing much fruit. This message resonates deeply with people from all walks of life, reminding us that our selfless actions and sacrifice for others, no matter how small, have the potential to bring about lasting change and renewal.
This is the 1420th 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 Israel Silud, Regional Coordinator for East Asia, 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]
