LEARN TO DO GOOD
May I receive the sacrament of the Lord’s Body and Blood, and its reality and power. Kind God, may I receive the Body of Your only-begotten Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, born from the womb of the Virgin Mary, and so be received into His mystical body and numbered among His members.
Loving Father, as on my earthly pilgrimage I now receive Your beloved Son under the veil of a sacrament, may I one day see Him face to face in glory, who lives and reigns with You forever. Amen. By Knights of the Holy Eucharist. Readings Lectures Reflection
First Reading Isaiah 1:10,16-20
Hear the word of the Lord, you rulers of Sodom; listen to the command of our God, you people of Gomorrah. ‘Wash, make yourselves clean.Take your wrong-doing out of my sight. Cease to do evil. Learn to do good, search for justice, help the oppressed, be just to the orphan, plead for the widow.
‘Come now, let us talk this over, says the Lord. Though your sins are
like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they
shall be like wool. ‘If you are willing to obey, you shall eat the good things
of the earth. But if you persist in rebellion, the sword shall eat you
instead.’
