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.
