First Reading: Sirach 3:2-6, 12-14 or Colossians 3:12-21 Or Colossians 3:12-17 Responsorial Psalm: Psalms 128:1-2, 3, 4-5 Alleluia: Colossians 3:15A, 16A Gospel: Matthew 2:13-15, 19-23 Today is the feast of the Holy Family. In our times of testing in our marriage, we can look to the Holy Family to model for us how to survive and thrive. Today, we again go through our time-honored practice in CFC of honoring each member of the family. We focus on the good. For if we count the blessings in having each one, more blessings are forthcoming because we trust God that they are the people He has given us for good. This is the 997th 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.
