THE LORD, OUR REDEEMER

FRIDAY 2ND WEEK OF ADVENT: Universalis
Anyone who follows you, O Lord, will have the light of life

CI: Reading Isaiah 48:17-19
If you had been alert to my commandments, your happiness would have been like a river

Thus says the Lord, your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel:
I, the Lord, your God, teach you what is good for you, I lead you in the way that you must go. If only you had been alert to my commandments, your happiness would have been like a river, your integrity like the waves of the sea. Your children would have been numbered like the sand, your descendants as many as its grains. Never would your name have been cut off or blotted out before me.

Responsorial Psalm: Anyone who follows you, O Lord, will have the light of life

Gospel Matthew 9:16-19 They heed neither John nor the Son of Man

CDR: Jesus spoke to the crowds: ‘What description can I find for this generation? It is like children shouting to each other as they sit in the market place:

“We played the pipes for you, and you wouldn’t dance; we sang dirges, and you wouldn’t be mourners.”

‘For John came, neither eating nor drinking, and they say, “He is possessed.” The Son of Man came, eating and drinking, and they say, “Look, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.” Yet wisdom has been proved right by her actions.’

Lord, my redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. Father you are my Lord, my God. Father, teach me what is good, lead me. Make me alert to your commandments, so that I would have peace like a river, and integrity like the waves of the sea. My posterity would be like sand as many as grains of sand, and my descendant long-lasting before you. Father your Kingdom is an everlasting Kingdom. Father anyone who follows you, will have the light of life. Guide my actions Lord.

Jesus I trust in you. 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, the Lord is with you.
