TOPIC: ARE YOU A STEPPING STONE OR A STUMBLING BLOCK?
First Reading: Second Thessalonians 1: 1-5, 11-12
Responsorial Psalm: Psalms 96: 1-2a, 2b-3, 4-5
Alleluia: John 10: 27
Gospel: Matthew 23: 13-22
In our prayer time today, let us reflect on how we respond to God's call in our lives. Are we obstacles that prevent others and ourselves from drawing closer to God, or do we live in a way that pleases Him? Do our interactions inspire those around us to grow in their faith? Let us remember that we are His messengers. As the Lord's envoys, let us consider the areas in our lives that need surrendering to Him so we can be stepping stones rather than stumbling blocks.
This is the 1582nd installment of our CFC contemplation series focusing on the daily liturgical readings.
[NOTE: Let us listen to our brother Eric Villanueva, Mission Head for CFC Europe and the Americas, 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]
