TOPIC: ARE YOU DISCOURAGED WHEN YOU DO GOOD AND NOTHING HAPPENS?
First Reading: Isaiah 58:7-10
Responsorial Psalm: Psalms 112:4-5, 6-7, 8-9
Second Reading: 1 Corinthians 2:1-5
Alleluia: John 8:12
Gospel: Matthew 5:13-16
Doing good can be tiring for those who are not fueled by grace. We have been commanded to love — that is, to forbear, forgive and do what is necessary to bring people to Christ. We will be disappointed many times when people judge us, reject us, mock us. But we will trudge on, if we are filled with the power of the Spirit.
This is the 1034th installment of our CFC contemplation series focusing on the daily liturgical readings.
[NOTE: 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 and Bong Arjonillo’s Facebook pages. In You Tube, just type ONLY BY GRACE REFLECTIONS]
