Alleluia, alleluia. Whoever loves me will keep my word, says the Lord; and my father will love him and we will come to him. R. Alleluia, alleluia. Gospel: Mark 12:28b-34 One of the scribes came to Jesus and asked him, "Which is the first of all the commandments?" And Jesus answered him: “The first commandment of all is this: ‘Listen, O Israel. The Lord your God is one God. And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength. This is the first commandment.’ But the second is similar to it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.” And the scribe said to him: “Well said, Teacher. You have spoken the truth that there is one God, and there is no other beside him; and that he should be loved with all the heart, with all the understanding, with all the soul, and with all the strength. And to love one’s neighbor as oneself is greater than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.” And Jesus, seeing that he had responded wisely, said to him, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.” And after that, no one dared to question him. == Sunday, November 3, 2024 - A moment with GOD through HIS WORD. Reflection: Do you seek God's truth with an open heart, and are you willing to share it with others, even when it’s difficult? Prayer: Lord of all Truth, in You and You alone will we discover the truths that set us free. Give me the grace and courage I need to always seek out the truth You teach. As I discover and understand all that You teach, help me to express my discoveries with joy and enthusiasm so that others will also be drawn to You. Jesus, I trust in You.
