CELUI QUI N'EST PAS CONTRE NOUS EST POUR NOUS

MERCREDI, 7 SEMAINE DU TEMPS ORDINAIRE: AELF
« Si le Seigneur le veut bien, nous serons en vie et nous ferons ceci ou cela »

Première Lecture Jacques 4,13-17 « Vous ne savez même pas ce que sera votre vie demain  »

Bien-aimés, vous autres, maintenant, vous dites : « Aujourd’hui ou demain nous irons dans telle ou telle ville, nous y passerons l’année, nous ferons du commerce et nous gagnerons de l’argent », alors que vous ne savez même pas ce que sera votre vie demain ! Vous n’êtes qu’un peu de brume, qui paraît un instant puis disparaît. Vous devriez dire au contraire : « Si le Seigneur le veut bien, nous serons en vie et nous ferons ceci ou cela. » Et voilà que vous mettez votre fierté dans vos vantardises. Toute fierté de ce genre est mauvaise ! Être en mesure de faire le bien et ne pas le faire, c’est un péché.

Psaume Responsorial: Heureux les pauvres de cœur, car le royaume des Cieux est à eux !

Évangile Mac 9,38-40 « N'empêchez personne de faire des miracles en mon »

RC: Jean, l'un des Douze, disait à Jésus: «Maître, nous avons vu quelqu'un chasser des esprits mauvais en ton nom; nous avons voulu l'en empêcher, car il n'est pas de ceux qui nous suivent» Jésus répondit: «Ne l'empêchez pas, car celui qui fait un miracle en mon nom ne peut pas, aussitôt après, mal parler de moi; celui qui n'est pas contre nous est pour nous».

Mon Dieu, mon Père, heureux les humbles en esprit, le royaume des cieux est à eux. Père, débarrasse-moi de toute fierté et rends-moi humble. Demain est incertain, je confie mon avenir à ton providence divine. Que ta volonté soit faite.

Jésus, j'ai confiance en toi. Seigneur. Unis-nous dans ton amour. Enlève de mon cœur l’envie et la jalousie. Vierge Marie, priez pour moi. Saint Joseph, priez pour moi. Dieux, Anges et Saints prient pour moi. Mon Ange Gardien prie pour moi.

Prions le Saint Rosaire : Marie Reine des Apôtres prie pour nous.

TRUST GOD, TRUST IN ME

Fifth Sunday of Easter  'I am going now to prepare a place for you' First Reading  Acts 6:1-7  They elected seven men full of the Holy Spirit About this time, when the number of disciples was increasing, the Hellenists made a complaint against the Hebrews: in the daily distribution their own widows were being overlooked. So the Twelve called a full meeting of the disciples and addressed them, ‘It would not be right for us to neglect the word of God so as to give out food; you, brothers, must select from among yourselves seven men of good reputation, filled with the Spirit and with wisdom; we will hand over this duty to them, and continue to devote ourselves to prayer and to the service of the word.’ The whole assembly approved of this proposal and elected Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, together with Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolaus of Antioch, a convert to Judaism. They presented these to the apostles, who prayed and laid th...

THE BREAD FROM HEAVEN

Tuesday week 3 of Eastertide -   ‘I can see heaven thrown open’ First Reading 7:51-8,1  'Lord Jesus, receive my spirit' Stephen said to the people, the elders and the scribes: ‘You stubborn people, with your pagan hearts and pagan ears. You are always resisting the Holy Spirit, just as your ancestors used to do. Can you name a single prophet your ancestors never persecuted? In the past they killed those who foretold the coming of the Just One, and now you have become his betrayers, his murderers. You who had the Law brought to you by angels are the very ones who have not kept it.’ They were infuriated when they heard this, and ground their teeth at him. But Stephen, filled with the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at God’s right hand. ‘I can see heaven thrown open’ he said ‘and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God.’ At this all the members of the council shouted out and stopped their ears with their hands; then they ...

YOU MUST NOT KILL

First Reading Ezekiel 18:21-28  I prefer to see the wicked man renounce his wickedness and live Thus says the Lord: ‘If the wicked man renounces all the sins he has committed, respects my laws and is law-abiding and honest, he will certainly live; he will not die. All the sins he committed will be forgotten from then on; he shall live because of the integrity he has practised. What! Am I likely to take pleasure in the death of a wicked man – it is the Lord who speaks – and not prefer to see him renounce his wickedness and live? ‘But if the upright man renounces his integrity, commits sin, copies the wicked man and practises every kind of filth, is he to live? All the integrity he has practised shall be forgotten from then on; but this is because he himself has broken faith and committed sin, and for this he shall die. But you object, “What the Lord does is unjust.” Listen, you House of Israel: is what I do unjust? Is it not what you do that is unjust? When the upright ma...
