TOPIC: DO WE REFLECT THE IMAGE OF GOD IN OUR DAILY LIFE?
First Reading: First Samuel 18: 6-9; 19: 1-7
Responsorial Psalm: Psalms 56: 2-3, 9-10a, 10b-12, 13-14
Alleluia: Second Timothy 1: 10
Gospel: Mark 3: 7-12
Matthew Kelly, a well-known Catholic author and motivational speaker was asked: “If you had to summarize how to live as a Christian in ten words or less, how would you do it?” After some thought, he answered: “You were made in the image of God. Act accordingly!” He further explained that Indeed, as we were made in the image of God, we have an astounding capacity for goodness. The reservoir of goodness within us is vast. When we share this goodness with others, the reservoir within us is supernaturally replenished. It is a never-ending source of God’s goodness.
This is the 1361st 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 Rouquel Ponte, a member of the CFC Board of Elders, 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]
