1 Cor.9:16-19, 22-27; Ps. 84; Luke 6: 39 – 42
A disciples is not above the teacher
Today’s gospel reminds us to use our gifts in ways that give life, rather than hurt or exclude others. We need to be true to ourselves with all our gifts and our limitations. Pray Tielhard de Chardin’s prayer for grace to see the world and all within it, with the compassionate heart of God.
Oh God, I wish from now on to be the first to become conscious
of all that the world loves, pursues, and suffers;
I want to be the first to seek
to sympathize and to suffer;
the first to unfold and sacrifice myself
and to become more widely human.
