#thewordtodaytv #catholicgospelreading #gospelreadingsfortoday #CatholicGospelandReflection Today's Catholic Mass Gospel and Reflection for February 11, 2025 - Mark 7:1-13 True Worship from the Heart Tuesday of the Fifth Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 330 Alleluia Psalms 119:36, 29b R. Alleluia, alleluia. Incline my heart, O God, to your decrees; And favor me with your law. R. Alleluia, alleluia. Gospel: Mark 7:1-13 And the Pharisees and some of the scribes, arriving from Jerusalem, gathered together before him. And when they had seen certain ones from his disciples eating bread with common hands, that is, with unwashed hands, they disparaged them. For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, do not eat without repeatedly washing their hands, holding to the tradition of the elders. And when returning from the market, unless they wash, they do not eat. And there are many other things which have been handed down to them to observe: the washings of cups, and pitchers, and bronze containers, and beds. And so the Pharisees and the scribes questioned him: “Why do your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but they eat bread with common hands?” But in response, he said to them: “So well did Isaiah prophesy about you hypocrites, just as it has been written: ‘This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me. And in vain do they worship me, teaching the doctrines and precepts of men.’ For abandoning the commandment of God, you hold to the tradition of men, to the washing of pitchers and cups. And you do many other things similar to these.” And he said to them: “You effectively nullify the precept of God, so that you may observe your own tradition. For Moses said: ‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and, ‘Whoever will have cursed father or mother, let him die a death.’ But you say, ‘If a man will have said to his father or mother: Korban, (which is a gift) whatever is from me will be to your benefit,’ then you do not release him to do anything for his father or mother, rescinding the word of God through your tradition, which you have handed down. And you do many other similar things in this way.” == Tuesday, February 11, 2025 - A moment with GOD through HIS WORD. Reflection: Do you go through the motions of prayer and worship, or do you truly open your heart to God, allowing Him to transform you from within? Prayer: My divine Lord, You and You alone are worthy of all worship, adoration and praise. You and You alone deserve the worship I offer You from the depths of my heart. Help me and Your entire Church to always interiorize our exterior acts of worship so as to give You the glory that is due Your holy name. Jesus, I trust in You. === Follow us: Viber: https://bit.ly/twtonviber Facebook:   / thewordtoday   Telegram: https://t.me/CatholicsDailyGospel Reflection and Prayer: == https://mycatholic.life/books/catholi...
