LORD WHY SHOULD YOUR ANGER BLAZE AGAINST YOUR PEOPLE

SUNDAY  WEEK 24 ORDINARY TIME YEAR C
The Lord relented and did not bring on his people the disaster he had threatened

The Lord spoke to Moses, ‘Go down now, because your people whom you brought out of Egypt have apostatised. They have been quick to leave the way I marked out for them; they have made themselves a calf of molten metal and have worshipped it and offered it sacrifice. “Here is your God, Israel,” they have cried “who brought you up from the land of Egypt!”’ the Lord said to Moses, ‘I can see how headstrong these people are! Leave me, now, my wrath shall blaze out against them and devour them; of you, however, I will make a great nation.’

But Moses pleaded with the Lord his God. ‘Lord,’ he said ‘why should your wrath blaze out against this people of yours whom you brought out of the land of Egypt with arm outstretched and mighty hand? Remember Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, your servants to whom by your own self you swore and made this promise: “I will make your offspring as many as the stars of heaven, and all this land which I promised I will give to your descendants, and it shall be their heritage for ever.”’  So the Lord relented and did not bring on his people the disaster he had threatened.

Lecture Exode 32, 7-11. 13-14
 « Le Seigneur renonça au mal qu’il avait voulu faire »

En ces jours-là, le Seigneur parla à Moïse : « Va, descends, car ton peuple s’est corrompu, lui que tu as fait monter du pays d’Égypte. Ils n’auront pas mis longtemps à s’écarter du chemin que je leur avais ordonné de suivre ! Ils se sont fait un veau en métal fondu et se sont prosternés devant lui. Ils lui ont offert des sacrifices en proclamant : “Israël, voici tes dieux, qui t’ont fait monter du pays d’Égypte.” » 
Le Seigneur dit encore à Moïse : « Je vois que ce peuple est un peuple à la nuque raide. Maintenant, laisse-moi faire ; ma colère va s’enflammer contre eux et je vais les exterminer ! Mais, de toi, je ferai une grande nation. »  Lecture Méditation

Moïse apaisa le visage du Seigneur son Dieu en disant : « Pourquoi, Seigneur, ta colère s’enflammerait-elle contre ton peuple, que tu as fait sortir du pays d’Égypte par ta grande force et ta main puissante ? Souviens-toi de tes serviteurs, Abraham, Isaac et Israël, à qui tu as juré par toi-même : “Je multiplierai votre descendance comme les étoiles du ciel ; je donnerai, comme je l’ai dit, tout ce pays à vos descendants, et il sera pour toujours leur héritage.” » Le Seigneur renonça au mal qu’il avait voulu faire à son peuple.

GOD'S GIFTS

GOD'S GIFT Mathew 25:14-30 Jesus spoke this parable to his disciples: ‘The kingdom of Heaven is like a man on his way abroad who summoned his servants and entrusted his property to them. To one he gave five talents, to another two, to a third one; each in proportion to his ability. Then he set out. ‘The man who had received the five talents promptly went and traded with them and made five more. The man who had received two made two more in the same way. But the man who had received one went off and dug a hole in the ground and hid his master’s money. ‘Now a long time after, the master of those servants came back and went through his accounts with them. The man who had received the five talents came forward bringing five more. “Sir,” he said “you entrusted me with five talents; here are five more that I have made.” ‘His master said to him, “Well done, good and faithful servant; you have shown you can be faithful in small things, I will trust you with greater; co...

HE EXISTED BEFORE ME

First Reading 1 John 2:22-28 The anointing he gave you teaches you everything The man who denies that Jesus is the Christ  he is the liar, he is Antichrist; and he is denying the Father as well as the Son, because no one who has the Father can deny the Son, and to acknowledge the Son is to have the Father as well. Keep alive in yourselves what you were taught in the beginning: as long as what you were taught in the beginning is alive in you, you will live in the Son and in the Father; and what is promised to you by his own promise is eternal life. This is all that I am writing to you about the people who are trying to lead you astray. But you have not lost the anointing that he gave you, and you do not need anyone to teach you; the anointing he gave teaches you everything; you are anointed with truth, not with a lie, and as it has taught you, so you must stay in him. Live in Christ, then, my children, so that if he appears, we may have full confidence, and not turn from him...

BE CURED

Prayer before Mass:  Almighty and ever-living God, I approach the sacrament of Your only-begotten Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ. I come sick to the doctor of life, unclean to the fountain of mercy, blind to the radiance of eternal light, and poor and needy to the Lord of heaven and earth. Lord, in Your great generosity, heal my sickness, wash away my defilement, enlighten my blindness, enrich my poverty, and clothe my nakedness. May I receive the Bread of Angels, the King of kings and Lord of lords, with humble reverence, with the purity and faith, the repentance and love, and the determined purpose that will help   to bring me to salvation.  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 pilgrima...
