REFLECTION ON THE DAILY GOSPEL 6 DECEMBER 2012

Gospel Mt 7:21, 24-27

If we look at the foundations of our lives, are they built on rock or sand? Jesus makes it clear that just listening to His words is not adequate, but rather action is required. We have to live and breathe Him deeply, just like taking in a deep gulp of air for our body; our soul needs the same nurturing.

Let us be like the wise man and build on His Word and then Act on His Word this and every sacred day we have ahead of us.

Gospel Mt 15:29-37

It is amazing to see the miracles that seem to occur around us in our lives. Just our creation itself is a miracle, our children, our friends, the blessings of a job to support ourselves, the opportunity to help others.

We don’t need to win the lottery to be happy, or to witness the healings of Jesus’s mission. His love is enough. Let us look around our lives today and see what we should be grateful for, and the blessings we have here today.

Gospel Lk 10:21-24

The purity of a child’s heart and the love of their parents are borne out this scripture reading. The revelation of God the Father and the relationship between Jesus and His Father is wondrous in this passage, and that the revelation continues through the Holy Spirit each day of our lives. Perhaps we should ponder for a moment on the beauty of The Trinity revealed through the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
