TOPIC: DO WE SEEK TO BE LIKE JESUS CHRIST IN HUMILITY AND SIMPLICITY OF HEART? First Reading: Baruch 4: 5-12, 27-29 Responsorial Psalm: Psalms 69: 33-35, 36-37 Alleluia: Matthew 11: 25 Gospel: Luke 10: 17-24 Why does Jesus tell His disciples to not take joy in their own successes, even spiritual ones? Jesus makes clear that the true source of our joy is God, and God alone.  Regardless of the circumstances, in good times and bad times, in success or loss, God always assures us of victory in Jesus Christ.  This is the 1261st installment of our CFC contemplation series focusing on the daily liturgical readings. [NOTE: As we continue to pray for Bro Bong Arjonillo’s healing and recovery, let us listen to our brother Solphie Confiado as he brings us today's reflection. 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.
