| First Reading: Psalm: Gospel: | Acts 28:11-16, 30-31 Psalm 98:1-6 Matthew 14:22-33 |
Matthew 14:33 So therefore, whoever of you does not renounce all that he has cannot be my disciple.
We have a tendency to think that we can take on the challenges of life with what we have, our money, our knowledge, our friends... The truth is we can't count on these to be enough to take on the major issues, life and death. God alone is the author and sustainer of life, and through Christ alone we have our salvation.
So, we must renounce all that we have. That means that we need to realize that it is not enough for us and we must seek God above all other things.
Father, help me by your Holy Spirit to look to you for my life. Help me to not fall into the trap of depending on what I think that I have.
Amen
