First Reading: 2 Thessalonians 2:1-3A, 14-17 Responsorial Psalm: Psalms 96:10, 11-12, 13 Alleluia: Hebrews 4:12 Gospel: Matthew 23:23-26 We like to dress for the occasion. But dressing ourselves up in the religious sense can mean we either want to impress others of our religiosity or quietly impress upon ourselves the importance of growing in holiness with our rituals of religiosity as part of the whole striving. This is the 867th installment of our CFC contemplation series focusing on the daily liturgical readings. [NOTE: All the regular reflections are between 3-7 minutes long, enough time for us to ponder what God's message is for us individually and to pray that we may live them out in our lives. This video is also available on Couples for Christ’s and Bong Arjonillo’s Facebook pages. In You Tube, just type ONLY BY GRACE REFLECTIONS]
