Friday of the Thirty-second Week in Ordinary Time. Year II. 2 John 1:4-9, Luke 17:26-37
We’re invited to a life of love by the first reading, since love of God and neighbour remains ultimate. Jesus Christ reminds us in the gospel not to be carried away by the pleasures of this life, in order not to miss the things that truly matter. As it was in Noah’s day, people still go about eating and drinking, marrying wives and husbands, buying and selling, planting and building, forgetting that God may call us at any time.
Friends we should rather keep rottenness out of our hearts, that we may not invite a gathering of vultures. We need to be more compassionate, especially to the poor. We need to pay more attention to doing good. When we strive to reposition our bodies, our souls are equally repositioned towards things of God’s Kingdom. May God give us the grace not to be decievers, or be led astray by them, Amen.
God bless your weekend ahead!
