Twenty-eighth Sunday in Ordinary Time Summarized by #AI #OpenAI #ChatGPT --- Reading 1 (Is 25:6-10a): On this mountain, the Lord prepares a feast of rich food and well-aged wines. He will swallow up death forever, wiping away every tear and removing the disgrace of his people. The lesson to be learned is that God will provide for His people and bring them joy and comfort, even in the face of death and sorrow. Responsorial Psalm (Ps 23:1-3a, 3b-4, 5, 6): The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. He guides me in right paths, even through the darkest valleys. He prepares a table before me, anointing my head with oil, and my cup overflows. This psalm reminds us that the Lord is our protector and provider, leading us to safety and abundance. Reading 2 (Phil 4:12-14, 19-20): St. Paul writes that he has learned to be content in all circumstances, whether in need or abundance. God supplies all our needs according to His riches in glory. The lesson to be learned is that we should trust in God's provision and be content with what we have, knowing that He will always provide for us. Alleluia (Cf. Eph 1:17-18): May the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ enlighten the eyes of our hearts, so that we may know the hope to which He has called us. This verse encourages us to seek spiritual understanding and to have hope in the calling that God has placed upon our lives. Gospel (Mt 22:1-14 or Mt 22:1-10): In the parable of the wedding feast, Jesus tells of a king who invited guests to his son's wedding but they refused to come. The king then invited others to fill the banquet hall. The lesson to be learned is that God's invitation to salvation is open to all, but it is up to us to accept and respond to His call. --- Full text at: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/reading... #Catholic #bible
