THE COMING OF GOD'S KINGDOM

THURSDAY WEEK 32 IN ORDINARY TIME
Luke 17:20-25 The kingdom of God is among you

Asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God was to come, Jesus gave them this answer, ‘The coming of the kingdom of God does not admit of observation and there will be no one to say, “Look here! Look there!” For, you must know, the kingdom of God is among you.’  Readings Reflection

He said to the disciples, ‘A time will come when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man and will not see it. They will say to you, “Look there!” or, “Look here!” Make no move; do not set off in pursuit; for as the lightning flashing from one part of heaven lights up the other, so will be the Son of Man when his day comes. But first he must suffer grievously and be rejected by this generation.’

God my Father, so often I question your ways. I fail to trust in you. I believe things should be done in my own ways, if not they are fruitless. Forgive me Father for my lack of trust in your goodness, and supremacy over my life. May your Holy Spirit enlighten me, teach me to trust in you. Help me in my spiritual journey, may you Kingdom come Father.

Évangile selon saint Luc 17, 20-25 « le règne de Dieu est au milieu de vous. » 

En ce temps-là, comme les pharisiens demandaient à Jésus quand viendrait le règne de Dieu, il prit la parole et dit : « La venue du règne de Dieu n’est pas observable. On ne dira pas : “Voilà, il est ici !” ou bien : “Il est là !” En effet, voici que le règne de Dieu est au milieu de vous. »  Lecture Méditation

Puis il dit aux disciples : « Des jours viendront où vous désirerez voir un seul des jours du Fils de l’homme, et vous ne le verrez pas. On vous dira : “Voilà, il est là-bas !” ou bien : “Voici, il est ici !” N’y allez pas, n’y courez pas. En effet, comme l’éclair qui jaillit illumine l’horizon d’un bout à l’autre, ainsi le Fils de l’homme, quand son jour sera là. Mais auparavant, il faut qu’il souffre beaucoup et qu’il soit rejeté par cette génération. »

Dieu mon Père, souvent je remets en question tes voies. Je n’ai pas confiance en vous. Je crois que les choses devraient être faites selon mes capacités, sinon elles sont infructueuses. Pardonne-moi, Père, mon manque de confiance en ta bonté et ta suprématie sur ma vie. Que ton Esprit Saint m’éclaire, m’apprenne à avoir confiance en toi. Aide-moi dans mon cheminement spirituel, que ton Royaume vienne Père.

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...
