“This Generation”

My Friends,
Today’s Gospel: Luke 7:31-35 (Jesus' Testimony of John)
“To what then shall I
compare the men of this generation,
and what are they like? They are like children sitting in the market place and
calling to one another, `We piped to you, and you did not dance; we wailed, and
you did not weep.' For John the Baptist has come eating no bread and drinking
no wine; and you say, `He has a demon.' The Son of man has come eating and
drinking; and you say, `Behold, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax
collectors and sinners!' Yet wisdom is justified by all her children."
Reflection:
Good morning to all my sisters and brothers around the world. Here we are mid-week and moving forward in prayer. Today's Gospel is Luke 7:31-35 (Jesus' Testimony of John) Let us think: Do you listen to God's word with expectant faith and the willingness to trust and obey? Do you make Jesus first in your life.
Dear Jesus, Please open my ears to hear the good news of your kingdom and set my heart on fire for you, free to love and serve you joyfully, every single day. Lord, do not allow anything to keep me from following you with all my heart, all my mind and all my strength. You are first in my life Lord, nothing else matters unless you are first. Thank you, Jesus for always loving me the way you always do -unconditionally... AMEN.

Bishop Robert Barron on Pride,
Humility, and Social Media
Pondering these thoughts today: It is spiritual indifference and the deaf ears of those who can block God's word. Let us not be like that. We must have a humble heart, be someone hungry for God; and you will be the person filled with joy and happiness throughout your life. Yes, you will have challenges and difficult times, but if God is the center of your joy, managing this time in your life will become so much easier. We are all human, so we will fall off the wagon every once in a while; it’s just wonderful knowing it is Jesus who is there to help us get back up again.
LOVE YOU GUYS !!!!
