TOPIC: AM I MUTE SO AS NOT TO TALK ABOUT THE KINGDOM?
First Reading: Deuteronomy 4:1, 5-9
Responsorial Psalm: Psalms 147: 12-13, 15-16, 19-20
Verse Before the Gospel: John 6: 63c, 68c
Gospel: Matthew 5: 17-19
The devil is no longer under the guise of distressing creatures with horns, tails, and reddened eyes, but he now comes in the form of laziness, anger, lust, and similar spirits. There are two wolves inside our hearts: one is Good, the other Evil. Which do you think will grow healthy? Of course, the one we feed. We need to decide who is the Master of our lives. Either we are for Jesus or the devil — there is no middle ground. Clearly, those who are not with God are against Him.
This is every Christian's fight. Everything we say, do, and even think contribute to one kingdom. The Father's work belongs to His children. Therefore, it’s our task to defend the kingdom. We are not just adopted children of God, we are also His army.
This is the 1798th installment of our CFC contemplation series focusing on the daily liturgical readings.
[NOTE: Let us listen to our brother Robert Ardiente, CFC Servants of the Lord Coordinator for Southeast 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]
