HE WAS ANXIOUS TO SEE JESUS

THURSDAY WEEK 25 IN ORDINARY TIME: Universalis
The Lord takes delight in his people

Reading Haggi :1-8 'Rebuild the House'

In the second year of King Darius, on the first day of the sixth month, the word of the Lord was addressed through the prophet Haggai to Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, high commissioner of Judah, and to Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest, as follows, ‘The Lord of Hosts says this, “This people says: The time has not yet come to rebuild the Temple of the Lord. (And the word of the Lord was addressed through the prophet Haggai, as follows:) Is this a time for you to live in your panelled houses, when this House lies in ruins? So now, the Lord of Hosts says this: Reflect carefully how things have gone for you. You have sown much and harvested little; you eat but never have enough, drink but never have your fill, put on clothes but do not feel warm. The wage earner gets his wages only to put them in a purse riddled with holes. So go to the hill country, fetch wood, and rebuild the House: I shall then take pleasure in it, and be glorified there, says the Lord.”’

Responsorial Psalm: The Lord takes delight in his people

Gospel Luke 9:7-9  'John? I beheaded him; so who is this?'

RC: Herod the tetrarch had heard about all that was being done by Jesus; and he was puzzled, because some people were saying that John had risen from the dead, others that Elijah had reappeared, still others that one of the ancient prophets had come back to life. But Herod said, ‘John? I beheaded him. So who is this I hear such reports about?’ And he was anxious to see Jesus.

'The Lord takes delight in his people'. My soul is yearning for you my God. How lovely is your dwelling place, Lord of Host. Father I bring before you today my time, my talent and my treasure. I offer them to you in service to your Holy Temple and in service to humanity. Father all good gifts comes from you, the origin of goodness. Father bless the work of my hands that as I sow, there will be abundant harvest. Feed me Father that I be satisfied. Quench my thirst and cover me with your banner of love. Father block every holes of leakages in my finance. All glory to you Father.

Lord Jesus I am anxious to see you. Lord you are the way, the truth and life. Jesus I trust in you. Be with me Lord. Blessed Virgin Mary pray for me. Saint Joseph pray for me. God's Angels and Saints pray for me. My Angel Guardian pray for me.

Pray the Holy Rosary: Hail Mary full of grace.
