Is 4:2-6 Mt 8:5-11
In the Gospel, a powerful Roman officer approached Jesus & asked Him to heal his sick servant.
Jesus offered to go to his house but the officer said Jesus did not have to. He said he was a link in a military chain of command where his superior issues a word & he obeys, period. Then those under him obey likewise. He believed Jesus need only say a word & the demon...

Dan 7:15-27 Lk 21:34-36
In the 1st Reading, Prophet Daniel describes as terrible horned monsters the conquering kings from neighboring lands who are terrorizing the area around the Mediterranean Sea including Jerusalem.
Today our monsters are much more dangerous for they don’t have horns; they are disguised as helpful nations. They want to conquer our land first by making us worry that...

11/25/11 Dn 7:2-14 Lk 21:29-33
Today’s readings speak of end-of-time events, hard to understand and easy to misinterpret. But their core message is clear & unarguable: God has given His Son dominion over all people of all nations of all time (Dn 7:13-14), and the universe will pass away but His Words will remain forever (Lk 21:33).
Jesus’ teaching is for all time. His Words...

Dn 5:1-28 Lk 21:12-19
Jesus warns His followers that they will be persecuted because of His Name, but this will be their opportunity to be His witnesses. (Lk 21:12-13)
The secular world hates the Gospel. Living its values makes us unpopular, an uncomfortable reminder to those who do not. Classmates will giggle behind us for trying to be holy. Neighbors will frown on us for having many kids. We...

ihatequotesihq:
When a GIRL is quiet, millions of things are running in her mind.
When a GIRL is not arguing, she is thinking deeply.
When a GIRL looks at you with eyes full of questions, she is wondering how long you will be around.
When a GIRL answers “I’m fine” after a few seconds, she is not fine at all.

Dn 2:31-45 Lk 21:5-11
In 600 BC, prophet Daniel predicted that “a stone cut out by no human hand” will shatter all earthly kingdoms, that this rock will grow to become a great mountain that will fill the whole earth (Dn 2: 34-35). It was to be a kingdom that will never be destroyed and will last forever (v. 44).
Then the Son of God came & chose a rock & said, “You are...

Today, the last Sunday of the church year, we celebrate the great Feast of Christ the King. This Feast is the culmination of all that we have been trying to learn all year: How to listen, follow, love and serve Jesus. In short, how to obey the King.
Jesus cannot be our King if we claim complete authority to do anything with our body and our life;...

Lk 19:45-48
“My house shall be a house of prayer.” (Lk 19:45)
Jesus said this to show His devotion for the House of God, the Temple, teaching there daily. While it’s true that each of us is a temple of God, we are just individual parts of Christ’s One Body, the Church (1Cor 12:27).
We need to assemble at the church building to affirm our identity,...

In the time of the Maccabees (175 BC), Jerusalem was ruled by Greeks. In Jesus’ time (33 AD), by the Romans. The Maccabees rejected all orders of their conqueror to turn against God. Instead they left their homes, fled to the hills & led a revolt.

Today’s parable is about the use of the gifts of time, treasure & talents God entrusted us His servants. Jesus describes 3 kinds of servants: 1. The Rebel, rejecting the Kingship of God, using his gifts to glorify himself (Lk 19:14). He will be judged terribly when Jesus returns (v. 27). 2. The Timid Believer, devout in prayer but does not share (v. 20-21),...

Know your self-worth
Saw this on one of my friend’s post on facebook… Worth sharing.
“It’s been said that people will only treat you the way you allow yourself to be treated. If you’re in a bad relationship, or if your friends rip on you all the time, you must not like yourself very much. If you did, you wouldn’t be in that relationship, and you wouldn’t have those friends. ...

Wis 18:14-16; 19:6-9 Lk 18:1-8
In today’s Gospel, Jesus encourages us to persist in praying and never get discouraged, assuring us that the Father will not delay in helping His children who plead with Him night & day.
Of course “delay” is relative. To a 3-yr old girl asking for a tricycle, a 1-year delay is so long for it is 30% of her lifetime. But for her 30-yr old...
