Reading I Genesis 49:2, 8-10

Jacob called his sons and said to them:
 “Assemble and listen, sons of Jacob,
 listen to Israel, your father.
“You, Judah, shall your brothers praise
 –your hand on the neck of your enemies;
 the sons of your father shall bow down to you.
 Judah, like a lion’s whelp,
 you have grown up on prey, my son.
 He crouches like a lion recumbent,
 the king of beasts–who would dare rouse him?
 The scepter shall never depart from Judah,
 or the mace from between his legs,
 While tribute is brought to him,
 and he receives the people’s homage.”

Gospel Matthew 1:1-17

The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ,
the son of David, the son of Abraham.
Abraham became the father of Isaac,
Isaac the father of Jacob,
Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers. 
Judah became the father of Perez and Zerah,
whose mother was Tamar. 
Perez became the father of Hezron,
Hezron the father of Ram,
Ram the father of Amminadab. 
Amminadab became the father of Nahshon,
Nahshon the father of Salmon,
Salmon the father of Boaz,
whose mother was Rahab. 
Boaz became the father of Obed,
whose mother was Ruth. 
Obed became the father of Jesse,
Jesse the father of David the king.
David became the father of Solomon,
whose mother had been the wife of Uriah. 
Solomon became the father of Rehoboam,
Rehoboam the father of Abijah,
Abijah the father of Asaph. 
Asaph became the father of Jehoshaphat,
Jehoshaphat the father of Joram,
Joram the father of Uzziah. 
Uzziah became the father of Jotham,
Jotham the father of Ahaz,
Ahaz the father of Hezekiah. 
Hezekiah became the father of Manasseh,
Manasseh the father of Amos,
Amos the father of Josiah.
Josiah became the father of Jechoniah and his brothers
at the time of the Babylonian exile.
After the Babylonian exile,
Jechoniah became the father of Shealtiel,
Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel,
Zerubbabel the father of Abiud. 
Abiud became the father of Eliakim,
Eliakim the father of Azor,
Azor the father of Zadok. 
Zadok became the father of Achim,
Achim the father of Eliud,
Eliud the father of Eleazar. 
Eleazar became the father of Matthan,
Matthan the father of Jacob,
Jacob the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary. 
Of her was born Jesus who is called the Christ.
Thus the total number of generations
from Abraham to David
is fourteen generations;
from David to the Babylonian exile, fourteen generations;
from the Babylonian exile to the Christ,
fourteen generations.

Formed: Jacob’s Prophecy

Contained in today’s First Reading from Genesis 49 is a prophecy by the patriarch Jacob. Out of his twelve sons, he predicts that from the tribe of Judah will come a great king. Jesus, the Lion of Judah, is the true King who ushers in the Kingdom of God, fulfilling Jacob’s prophecy.
https://watch.formed.org/videos/daily-reflections-december-17-2021

Today’s Action Item: Have great faith and give thanks to Jesus for fulfilling this prophecy.

Daily Catholic Wisdom…

What is truth? Pilate was not alone in dismissing this question as unanswerable and irrelevant for his purposes. Today too, in political argument and in discussion of the foundations of law, it is generally experienced as disturbing. Yet if man lives without truth, life passes him by; ultimately he surrenders the field to whoever is the strongest.
Joseph Ratzinger (Benedict XVI)
from Faith and Politics

My prayer…

Dear God, my Abba Father, Lord Jesus my Savior, Holy Spirit within me.
Thank You for fulfilling the prophecy of Jacob. For loving us enough. For Your Word, the nourishes our faith and guides our way. For walking with us.

My prayer today is that this Christmas we would all come to understand and grow in our faith. Knowing what and why we believe. And commit to One Walk with You.
So I pray for me, mine and theirs. And all those feeling they’re missing something. That their life isn’t complete. May they come to know the completeness in Jesus Christ, and One Walk with Jesus.
Not my will, but Yours Lord God.
Jesus, Mary, I love You, save souls.
In Jesus name I pray.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost; as it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Apostles (Nicene) Creed

I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.
Amen.

Lords Prayer

Our Father, Who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name; Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Amen.

Hail Mary

Hail Mary full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed are thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus.
Holy Mary Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death.

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning is now, and ever shall be, world without end.
Amen.

O my Jesus, have mercy on us. Forgive us our sins. Save us from the fires of hell. Take all souls into heaven, especially, those most in need of thy mercy.
Amen.

Salve Regina (Hail Holy Queen)

Hail, holy Queen, Mother of mercy, hail, our life, our sweetness and our hope. To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve: to thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this vale of tears. Turn then, most gracious Advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us, and after this our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus, O merciful, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary!
Amen.

Anima Christi

Soul of Christ, make me holy. Body of Christ, save me. Blood of Christ, fill me with love. Water from Christ’s side, wash me. Passion of Christ, strengthen me. Good Jesus, hear me. Within your wounds, hide me. Never let me be parted from you. From the evil enemy, protect me. At the hour of my death, call me. And tell me to come to you. That with your saints I may praise you. Through all eternity.
Amen.

Gospel Luke 7:24-30

When the messengers of John the Baptist had left,
Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John. 
“What did you go out to the desert to see a reed swayed by the wind? 
Then what did you go out to see? 
Someone dressed in fine garments? 
Those who dress luxuriously and live sumptuously
are found in royal palaces. 
Then what did you go out to see? 
A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet. 
This is the one about whom Scripture says:
Behold, I am sending my messenger ahead of you,
 he will prepare your way before you.
I tell you,
among those born of women, no one is greater than John;
yet the least in the Kingdom of God is greater than he.”
(All the people who listened, including the tax collectors,
who were baptized with the baptism of John,
acknowledged the righteousness of God;
but the Pharisees and scholars of the law,
who were not baptized by him,
rejected the plan of God for themselves.)

Reflection

Formed: Pointing to Jesus

Once more, today’s Gospel stresses the importance of John the Baptist. Contrasted to Herod, John is presented as a prophet, and more than that. None greater than John, his whole life and ministry points toward Jesus. Strive to be like John, living a life that is totally directed to Jesus.
https://watch.formed.org/videos/daily-reflections-december-16-2021

Today’s Action Item: Do not look up to the rich and the powerful for your direction and guidance.

My prayer…

Dear God, my Abba Father, Lord Jesus my Savior, Holy Spirit within me.
Today’s Gospel reading is beautiful, insightful and inspiring. I always read John words and what Jesus says about John in the Bible with such intensity. For I seek You, Jesus above all. To know and love You above all. And John is that voice that calls out to me… out of the darkness of this world. To always lead me to You. To encourage me to keep seeking You , know and love You more each day, above all.
Thank You for walking with me, for hearing my prayers for me, mine and theirs. For protecting us and blessing us. For keeping our ears tuned to Your voice.
Not our will, but Yours Lord God.
Jesus, Mary, I love You, save souls.
In Jesus name I pray.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost; as it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Reading I Isaiah 45:6c-8, 18, 21c-25

I am the LORD, there is no other;
 I form the light, and create the darkness,
I make well-being and create woe;
 I, the LORD, do all these things.
Let justice descend, O heavens, like dew from above,
 like gentle rain let the skies drop it down.
Let the earth open and salvation bud forth;
 let justice also spring up!
 I, the LORD, have created this.
For thus says the LORD,
The creator of the heavens,
 who is God,
The designer and maker of the earth
 who established it,
Not creating it to be a waste,
 but designing it be lived in:
I am the LORD, and there is no other.
Who announced this from the beginning
 and foretold it from of old?
Was it not I, the LORD,
 besides whom there is no other God?
 There is no just and saving God but me.
Turn to me and be safe,
 all you ends of the earth,
 for I am God; there is no other!
By myself I swear,
 uttering my just decree
 and my unalterable word:
To me every knee shall bend;
 by me every tongue shall swear,
Saying, “Only in the LORD
 are just deeds and power.
Before him in shame shall come
 all who vent their anger against him.
In the LORD shall be the vindication and the glory
 of all the descendants of Israel.”

Gospel Luke 7:18b-23

At that time,
John summoned two of his disciples and sent them to the Lord to ask,
“Are you the one who is to come, or should we look for another?” 
When the men came to the Lord, they said,
“John the Baptist has sent us to you to ask,
‘Are you the one who is to come, or should we look for another?’”
At that time Jesus cured many of their diseases, sufferings, and evil spirits;
he also granted sight to many who were blind. 
And Jesus said to them in reply,
“Go and tell John what you have seen and heard:
the blind regain their sight,
the lame walk,
lepers are cleansed,
the deaf hear, the dead are raised,
the poor have the good news proclaimed to them. 
And blessed is the one who takes no offense at me.”

Formed: He Humbled Himself

In Isaiah’s writings, God’s grandeur and transcendence is displayed. From this perspective, we see how incredible the Incarnation is: the God of the universe was made flesh in the womb of Mary and born in a humble town. As we approach the celebration of this birth, let us heed John the Baptist’s call to repent, give alms, and pray.

Perfect purity brings one closer to God.
St. Louis de Montfort
from his book, The Love of Eternal Wisdom

My prayer…

Dear God, my Abba Father, Lord Jesus my Savior, Holy Spirit within me.
You are my ‘light’. You have shown me the errors of my ways, and the wonders and truth of Yours. You light my way, and teach me in Yours.
Thank You for everything for all I have is because of You, and I have all I need.

Though I stumble and fall, I know You are with me. Teaching me what I need to learn and know to show Your presence in my life. This I know.
So I pray without ceasing for me, mine and theirs. That we will learn and grow in You together. That You will protect and bless us. That You would expand our territory for Your glory.
Not my will, but Yours Lord God.
Jesus, Mary, I love You, save souls.
In Jesus name I pray.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost; as it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Today’s Responsorial Psalm 34:2-3, 6-7, 17-18, 19 and 23…

R. (7a) The Lord hears the cry of the poor.

I will bless the LORD at all times;
 his praise shall be ever in my mouth.
Let my soul glory in the LORD;
 the lowly will hear me and be glad.
R. The Lord hears the cry of the poor.

Look to him that you may be radiant with joy,
 and your faces may not blush with shame.
When the poor one called out, the LORD heard,
 and from all his distress he saved him.
R. The Lord hears the cry of the poor.

The LORD confronts the evildoers,
 to destroy remembrance of them from the earth.
When the just cry out, the LORD hears them,
 and from all their distress he rescues them.
R. The Lord hears the cry of the poor.

The LORD is close to the brokenhearted;
 and those who are crushed in spirit he saves.
The LORD redeems the lives of his servants;
 no one incurs guilt who takes refuge in him.
R. The Lord hears the cry of the poor.

Reading I Zephaniah 3:1-2, 9-13

Thus says the LORD:
Woe to the city, rebellious and polluted,
 to the tyrannical city!
She hears no voice,
 accepts no correction;
In the LORD she has not trusted,
 to her God she has not drawn near.
For then I will change and purify
 the lips of the peoples,
That they all may call upon the name of the LORD,
 to serve him with one accord;
From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia
 and as far as the recesses of the North,
 they shall bring me offerings.
On that day
You need not be ashamed 
 of all your deeds,
 your rebellious actions against me;
For then will I remove from your midst
 the proud braggarts,
And you shall no longer exalt yourself
 on my holy mountain.
But I will leave as a remnant in your midst
 a people humble and lowly,
Who shall take refuge in the name of the LORD:
 the remnant of Israel.
They shall do no wrong
 and speak no lies;
Nor shall there be found in their mouths
 a deceitful tongue;
They shall pasture and couch their flocks
 with none to disturb them.

Gospel Matthew 21:28-32

Jesus said to the chief priests and the elders of the people:
“What is your opinion? 
A man had two sons. 
He came to the first and said,
‘Son, go out and work in the vineyard today.’ 
The son said in reply, ‘I will not,’
but afterwards he changed his mind and went. 
The man came to the other son and gave the same order. 
He said in reply, ‘Yes, sir,’ but did not go. 
Which of the two did his father’s will?” 
They answered, “The first.” 
Jesus said to them, “Amen, I say to you,
tax collectors and prostitutes
are entering the Kingdom of God before you. 
When John came to you in the way of righteousness,
you did not believe him;
but tax collectors and prostitutes did. 
Yet even when you saw that,
you did not later change your minds and believe him.”

Formed: Thy Will Be Done

In the Book of Zephaniah, God tells his people of their need for purification. Israel is urged to speak the truth, to die to themselves, and to serve the Lord. Even though this is not an easy path, it leads to joyful friendship with God. As we embark on this same journey of faith, let us ask for the intercession of St. John of the Cross, a great spiritual master!

Dear God, my Abba Father, Lord Jesus my Savior, Holy Spirit within me.

Apostles (Nicene) Creed

I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.
Amen.

Lords Prayer

Our Father, Who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name; Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Amen.

Amen.

Reading I Numbers 24:2-7, 15-17a

When Balaam raised his eyes and saw Israel encamped, tribe by tribe,
 the spirit of God came upon him,
 and he gave voice to his oracle:
The utterance of Balaam, son of Beor,
 the utterance of a man whose eye is true,
 The utterance of one who hears what God says,
 and knows what the Most High knows,
 Of one who sees what the Almighty sees,
 enraptured, and with eyes unveiled:
 How goodly are your tents, O Jacob;
 your encampments, O Israel!
 They are like gardens beside a stream,
 like the cedars planted by the LORD.
 His wells shall yield free-flowing waters,
 he shall have the sea within reach;
 His king shall rise higher,
 and his royalty shall be exalted.
Then Balaam gave voice to his oracle:
The utterance of Balaam, son of Beor,
 the utterance of the man whose eye is true,
 The utterance of one who hears what God says,
 and knows what the Most High knows,
 Of one who sees what the Almighty sees,
 enraptured, and with eyes unveiled.
 I see him, though not now;
 I behold him, though not near:
 A star shall advance from Jacob,
 and a staff shall rise from Israel.

Gospel Matthew 21:23-27

When Jesus had come into the temple area,
the chief priests and the elders of the people approached him
as he was teaching and said,
“By what authority are you doing these things? 
And who gave you this authority?” 
Jesus said to them in reply,
“I shall ask you one question, and if you answer it for me,
then I shall tell you by what authority I do these things. 
Where was John’s baptism from?
Was it of heavenly or of human origin?” 
They discussed this among themselves and said,
“If we say ‘Of heavenly origin,’ he will say to us,
‘Then why did you not believe him?’ 
But if we say, ‘Of human origin,’ we fear the crowd,
for they all regard John as a prophet.” 
So they said to Jesus in reply, “We do not know.” 
He himself said to them,
“Neither shall I tell you by what authority I do these things.”

Formed: A New David

In the Book of Numbers, Balaam is granted a vision of the messiah. As Balaam says, the messiah is coming as the "star" and "scepter." These symbols are representative of kingship, and they ultimately point to Jesus’ reign. Thus, in the New Testament, when the star appears to the magi, the arrival of the true messianic king is signaled!

Reading I Zephaniah 3:14-18a

Shout for joy, O daughter Zion!
 Sing joyfully, O Israel!
 Be glad and exult with all your heart,
 O daughter Jerusalem!
 The LORD has removed the judgment against you
 he has turned away your enemies;
 the King of Israel, the LORD, is in your midst,
 you have no further misfortune to fear.
 On that day, it shall be said to Jerusalem:
 Fear not, O Zion, be not discouraged!
 The LORD, your God, is in your midst,
 a mighty savior;
 he will rejoice over you with gladness,
 and renew you in his love,
 he will sing joyfully because of you,
 as one sings at festivals.

Gospel Luke 3:10-18
The crowds asked John the Baptist,
“What should we do?”
He said to them in reply,
“Whoever has two cloaks
should share with the person who has none. 
And whoever has food should do likewise.”
Even tax collectors came to be baptized and they said to him,
“Teacher, what should we do?”
He answered them, 
“Stop collecting more than what is prescribed.”
Soldiers also asked him,
“And what is it that we should do?”
He told them,
“Do not practice extortion, 
do not falsely accuse anyone, 
and be satisfied with your wages.”
Now the people were filled with expectation, 
and all were asking in their hearts 
whether John might be the Christ.
John answered them all, saying, 
“I am baptizing you with water,
but one mightier than I is coming.
I am not worthy to loosen the thongs of his sandals.
He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.
His winnowing fan is in his hand to clear his threshing floor
and to gather the wheat into his barn, 
but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire.”
Exhorting them in many other ways, 
he preached good news to the people.

The Church, in her wisdom, gives us John the Baptist and Mary as models for this Advent season. John, the forerunner of Jesus’ First Coming, is displayed to remind us to prepare our hearts for Jesus’s Second Coming. Mary shows us how we are to prepare our hearts for Jesus. Pray to them today, asking for their intercession during this season of Advent.

Today’s Action Item: Ask the question: "What should I do to prepare for the Messiah?"

Daily Catholic Wisdom…

It cost Mary something to have us as sons. She could beget Jesus in joy in a stable, but she could beget us only on Calvary, only in labors great enough to make her Queen of Martyrs.
Ven. Fulton J. Sheen
from The World’s Greatest Love

My prayer…

Dear God, my Abba Father, Lord Jesus my Savior, Holy Spirit within me.
Beautiful how today’s Formed reflection ties together our first reading with today’s Gospel reading. Asking the question: "What should I do to prepare for the Messiah?" ‘Make room in my heart’, and keep You at the center of it all.
Just as St. John the Baptist tells us to reboot our life’s for One Walk with Jesus. Our Blessed Holy Mother tells and shows us to make room in our hearts for our Lord God Jesus Christ.
This requires a daily, real time conscious awareness of wanting to truly have one walk with Jesus. Putting Him at the center, and keeping Him above all else. Realizing in each moment the need to follow Him, and reboot when we drift away and don’t.
So I pray for me, mine and theirs. That we have the awareness, strength and courage to do just that… reboot with Jesus. Keep me in the moment with You, free of myself.

Not my will, but Yours Lord God.

Jesus, Mary, I love You, save souls.
In Jesus name I pray.

Apostles (Nicene) Creed

I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.
Amen.

Lords Prayer

Our Father, Who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name; Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Amen.

Hail Mary

Hail Mary full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed are thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus.
Holy Mary Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.

Glory be to the Father

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning is now, and ever shall be, world without end.
Amen.

O my Jesus

O my Jesus, have mercy on us. Forgive us our sins. Save us from the fires of hell. Take all souls into heaven, especially, those most in need of thy mercy.
Amen.

Salve Regina (Hail Holy Queen)

Hail, holy Queen, Mother of mercy, hail, our life, our sweetness and our hope. To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve: to thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this vale of tears. Turn then, most gracious Advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us, and after this our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus, O merciful, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary!
Amen.

Anima Christi

Soul of Christ, make me holy. Body of Christ, save me. Blood of Christ, fill me with love. Water from Christ’s side, wash me. Passion of Christ, strengthen me. Good Jesus, hear me. Within your wounds, hide me. Never let me be parted from you. From the evil enemy, protect me. At the hour of my death, call me. And tell me to come to you. That with your saints I may praise you. Through all eternity.
Amen.

Amen.

Today’s verse…

In those days,
like a fire
there appeared the prophet Elijahwhose words were as a flaming furnace.
Sirach 48:1

Today’s readings…

Reading I Sirach 48:1-4, 9-11

In those days, like a fire there appeared the prophet Elijah whose words were as a flaming furnace. Their staff of bread he shattered, in his zeal he reduced them to straits; By the Lord’s word he shut up the heavens and three times brought down fire. How awesome are you, Elijah, in your wondrous deeds! Whose glory is equal to yours? You were taken aloft in a whirlwind of fire, in a chariot with fiery horses. You were destined, it is written, in time to come to put an end to wrath before the day of the LORD, To turn back the hearts of fathers toward their sons, and to re-establish the tribes of Jacob. Blessed is he who shall have seen you and who falls asleep in your friendship.

Gospel Matthew 17:9a, 10-13

As they were coming down from the mountain,the disciples asked Jesus,“Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”He said in reply, “Elijah will indeed come and restore all things;but I tell you that Elijah has already come,and they did not recognize him but did to him whatever they pleased. So also will the Son of Man suffer at their hands.”Then the disciples understoodthat he was speaking to them of John the Baptist.

Reflection

Formed: Facing Your Sinfulness

Elijah’s words felt like fire to his hearers. Words of rebuke never feel comforting in the moment, but they are purifying and help us to grow closer to God. As we listen to stories about Elijah, can we think of a time a respected person in our life corrected us and how it made us grow?

Today’s Action Item: Have the strength to face the truth of your sinfulness.

Daily Catholic Wisdom…

Love that is not nourished on sacrifice becomes trite, banal, and commonplace.
Ven. Fulton J. Sheenfrom The World’s Greatest Love

My prayer…

Dear God, my Abba Father, Lord Jesus my Savior, Holy Spirit within me.

As I grow in my relationship with You, it is easy to forget how long it took me to realize I was walking in sin, and am a sinner by nature. Even worse, I rationalized it away, putting You off for another day. And worse than that, how now I sometimes rebuke those doing exactly what I did. I’m sorry, forgive me, I love You. Give me the mind set and presence of Elijah with the Words of Jesus and His presence visible in me, to help those walking in sin as I once was.
Hear my prayers!
Prayers for protection and blessings, and the resources, wisdom and understanding on how to help those refusing to listen to Your voice and obey Your Words.

Not my will, but Yours Lord God.

Jesus, Mary, I love You, save souls.
In Jesus name I pray.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost; as it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
