  • Summary

  • Monday of the 33rd Week in Ordinary Time

    Memorial of the Dedication of the Basilicas of Saints Peter and Paul

    Memorial of Saint Rose Philippine Duchesne

    In Catholic Lectionary Today's readings:

    • 📖 First reading: Revelation 1:1-4; 2:1-5
    • 📖 Gospel: Luke 18:35-43 🙏

    🌟 Today’s readings call us to renew our faith, rekindle our love for God, and persist in seeking His mercy. In the first reading, the message to the Church in Ephesus acknowledges their endurance and faithfulness but points out a significant shortcoming: they have lost their initial fervor of love for God. The call to repentance is a reminder to rediscover the passion and devotion that first brought us to Christ. Faith is not just about perseverance but about a vibrant relationship with God, rooted in love. 🌿

    🌅 In the Gospel, the blind man near Jericho exemplifies faith and persistence. Despite the crowd’s attempts to silence him, he cries out to Jesus, recognizing Him as the "Son of David." His unwavering faith opens the way for his healing, and Jesus grants him sight, affirming that "your faith has saved you." This moment of healing leads to collective praise, showing how one person’s faith can inspire others to glorify God. ✨

    🕊️ As we commemorate the dedication of the Basilicas of Saints Peter and Paul, we reflect on the apostolic foundations of our faith and the call to build our lives on Christ, the cornerstone. Saint Rose Philippine Duchesne, also honored today, inspires us with her example of missionary zeal and persistent prayer, reminding us to remain steadfast in love and service to God.

    These readings challenge us to assess our spiritual lives. Are we living with the same passion and love for God as when we first encountered Him? Let us cry out to Him with faith, trusting in His mercy, and recommit ourselves to a life of love and praise. 🙏💖
