ST PADRE PIO OF PIETRELCINA, PRIEST (M)

Haggai 1:1-8; Psalm 149; Luke 9:7-9

Who is this man I hear so much about?

In the Gospel Herod hears stories about "all that was being done by Jesus" – he’s puzzled. Who could this be? Herod can’t work it out and decides that he needs to "see" Jesus. This is our daily task - to really see Jesus. We are called constantly to go beyond what we see first, the obvious. We need to get to know Jesus if he is to be the centre and energy source of our lives. Read or study something new about who Jesus was and is today?
