Time. Readings: Isaiah 66: 10-14c; Psalm 66: 1-3, 4-5, 6-7, 16, 20; Galatians 6: 14-18; Luke 10: 1-12, 17-20 ============================================================================================= #The_readings_for_the_14th_Sunday_in_Ordinary_Time_Year C, invite us to reflect on the theme of joy and the mission entrusted to us as followers of Christ. In the first reading from the Book of Isaiah, we hear the beautiful imagery of God nurturing His people. The image of a mother nurturing her children reflects the deep love and compassion God has for His people. "Rejoice with Jerusalem," we are told, highlighting that joy is not just a personal experience but a communal one. God brings comfort and abundance, and we are called to share in that joy as His children. In today's Psalm, we further participate in this communal rejoicing. "Let all the earth cry out to God with joy." Our worship and our lives are a response to God's goodness. It's a reminder that gratitude should permeate our existence, and joy should radiate from us, positively impacting those around us. The second reading from St. Paul's letter to the Galatians emphasizes that our true identity is rooted not in worldly distinctions but in our relationship with Christ. "Far be it from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. As we are transformed through Christ, we are called to bear witness to His love, reminding us that our mission is not about ourselves, but about bringing others to that same joy and peace. In the Gospel of Luke, #Jesus_sends_out_the_seventy-two_disciples, equipping them with a mission. He instructs them to proclaim peace and to heal the sick. Their joy upon returning is a testament to the effectiveness of their mission. They not only preached the good news but also experienced the power of God at work through them. Jesus reminds them, and us, that our authority and joy come from our relationship with Him. ================================================================================================= @MyCatholicLifeJMJ @jesuscalls @trustisanobelword @SouthChinaMorningPost @VaticanNews
