4 FEB2022 - ONLY BY GRACE REFLECTIONS

#TheDeathOfJohnTheBaptist #Grudge #Unforgiveness TOPIC: DO YOU HOLD GRUDGES? First Reading: Sirach 47:2-11 Responsorial Psalm: Psalms 18:31, 47 AND 50, 51 Alleluia: Luke 8:15 Gospel: Mark 6:14-29 Herodias held a grudge against John the Baptist. When the opportune time came, she exacted her revenge. When we carry a grudge, and the longer we carry it, it festers like a wound that never heals. And the pain that we feel never goes away, robbing us of the true peace and joy that life, and God, offers. This is the 668th installment of our CFC quarantine 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.
