| First Reading: Psalm: Gospel: | Ephesians 4:1-6 Psalm 24:1-6 Luke 12:54-59 |
Psalm 24:1 The earth is the LORD's and the fullness thereof, the world and those who dwell therein;
We often forget that this world is the Lord's and not ours. We act as if it is ours though. But think about how you would treat property or even people that you have been given the responsibility to take care of for a friend. You would treat it with respect because of your love and respect for your friend. We should treat this world with respect because of our love and respect for our Lord. The problem is that the world too often becomes a political bargaining chip for our own agendas.
Father, help me by your Holy Spirit to remember that all that I am and all that I have is from you. Remind me that I am a servant and steward of your grace and love.
Amen
