THIER WORDS GOES FORTH THROUGH ALL THE EARTH

WEDNESDAY 1ST WEEK OF ADVENT YEAR A

Reading Romans 10:9-18

Faith comes from what is preached,

and what is preached comes from the word of Christ

If your lips confess that Jesus is Lord and if you believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, then you will be saved. By believing from the heart you are made righteous; by confessing with your lips you are saved. When scripture says: those who believe in him will have no cause for shame, it makes no distinction between Jew and Greek: all belong to the same Lord who is rich enough, however many ask his help, for everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.

Gospel Matthew 4:10-22 'I will make you fishers of men'

As Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon, who was called Peter, and his brother Andrew; they were making a cast in the lake with their net, for they were fishermen. And he said to them, ‘Follow me and I will make you fishers of men.’ And they left their nets at once and followed him. Going on from there he saw another pair of brothers, James son of Zebedee and his brother John; they were in their boat with their father Zebedee, mending their nets, and he called them. At once, leaving the boat and their father, they followed him. CDF

Lord Jesus Christ you are my Lord and Redeemer. I love you Lord my God. I believe in you Lord.

Lecture de la lettre de saint Paul apôtre aux Romains 10, 9-18

« La foi naît de ce que l’on entend ; et ce que l’on entend, c’est la parole du Christ »

Frère, si de ta bouche, tu affirmes que Jésus est Seigneur, si, dans ton cœur, tu crois que Dieu l’a ressuscité d’entre les morts, alors tu seras sauvé. Car c’est avec le cœur que l’on croit pour devenir juste, c’est avec la bouche que l’on affirme sa foi pour parvenir au salut. En effet, l’Écriture dit : Quiconque met en lui sa foi ne connaîtra pas la honte. Ainsi, entre les Juifs et les païens, il n’y a pas de différence : tous ont le même Seigneur, généreux envers tous ceux qui l’invoquent. En effet, quiconque invoquera le nom du Seigneur sera sauvé.

Évangile Matthieu 4, 18-22 « Aussitôt, laissant leurs filets, ils le suivirent »

En ce temps-là, comme Jésus marchait le long de la mer de Galilée, il vit deux frères, Simon, appelé Pierre, et son frère André, qui jetaient leurs filets dans la mer ; car c’étaient des pêcheurs. Jésus leur dit : « Venez à ma suite, et je vous ferai pêcheurs d’hommes. » Aussitôt, laissant leurs filets, ils le suivirent. De là, il avança et il vit deux autres frères, Jacques, fils de Zébédée, et son frère Jean, qui étaient dans la barque avec leur père, en train de réparer leurs filets. Il les appela. Aussitôt, laissant leur barque et leur père, ils le suivirent. RC

Seigneur Jésus-Christ, tu es mon Seigneur et mon Rédempteur. Je t’aime Seigneur mon Dieu. Je crois en toi Seigneur.

Saint André, apôtre et martyr, priez pour vous aujourd’hui le jour de votre anniversaire. Saint Joseph prie pour nous. Marie, Reine des Apôtres, priez pour nous. Priez le Saint Rosaire. Jésus, j’ai confiance en toi.

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...
