St Leo the Great

Philemon 7-20; Ps 146:7-10; Luke 17:20-25.

Look within and around

The gospel today reminds me of a catchy hymn that was sung years ago at a tertiary student conference and became the theme song. “The kingdom is within you, the kingdom is within you, like a little seed planted in the ground – let it grow”. So often we look beyond for answers, and yet they are here among us. So ponder today and discover the presence of God. It may be in an encounter or in a smile – it is where I have felt the touch of God.
