⏰Twenty-Eighth Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year C) ????2 Kgs 5:14-17; Psalm 981, 2-3ab, 3cd-4 (R.v.2); 2 Tim 2:8-13; Luke 17:11-19 ????“IT IS GOOD TO GIVE THANKS TO THE LORD” It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to make music to your name, O Most High, to proclaim your love in the morning and your truth in the watches of the night (Psalm 92).???? Thanksgiving is a language that is cross-cultural. The Eucharist which we celebrate daily, in its etymology and significance, means thanksgiving. Everyone enjoys the tone of thanksgiving and abhors that of ingratitude. The readings we have...

⏰Twenty-Seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year C) ????Hab 1:2-3; 2:2-4; Psalm 95:1-2, 6-7abc, 7d-9; 2Tim 1:6-8, 13-14; Luke 17:5-10 ????“LORD, INCREASE OUR FAITH” Faith is a major theme that runs through the three readings that we have in our Liturgy of today. In the First Reading, the Prophet Habakkuk was crying out in desperation. Like the prophets before him, the burden of the peoples welfare was on him and he cried out against the injustice that had befallen his society.???? It was as if the Lord had abandoned the city to suffer despite the obvious turning of many from unrighteousness....

Twenty-Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year C) – 29 Sept 2019 Amos 6:1a, 4-7; Ps. 146:6c-7, 8-a, 9bc-10 (R.v.1b); 1 Tim 6:11-16; Luke 16:19-31 “OUR HELP COMES FROM THE LORD” (Ps 121:2) My dear, do you really believe that God is the only one who has the solution to all your problems, and that with him by your side, you shall lack nothing? Note this! Your tears may last all through the night but with God by your side, joy will certainly come with the morning (see Ps 30:5). Are you passing through difficult time at the moment? I want...

⏰Twenty-Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year C) ????Amos 8:4-7; Ps. 113:1-2, 4-6, 7-8 (R.v.1a, 7a); 1Tim 2:1-8; Luke 16:1-13 ????“SEEK YE FIRST THE KINGDOM OF GOD” It is a truism that where your treasure is, there lies your heart. If we love God so much, in God would our attention subsist but if it is material possession that we treasure more, it will definitely take away our attention from God. The people of Israel were patiently awaiting the Day of the Lord, when God would restore peace in Jerusalem. But they do this without bothering to keep themselves holy for...

⏰SECOND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME (YEAR C) 📖Isa 62:1-5; Ps 96:1-2a, 2b-3, 7-8, 9-10a and c (R.v.3); 1 Cor 12:4-11; John 2:1-11 🎤”YOU SHALL BE CALLED BY A NEW NAME WHICH THE MOUTH OF THE LORD WILL GIVE” (Isa 62:2) We can prophetically and prayerfully call today a glorious Sunday. The Liturgy of today predisposes us to do so especially when we remember that it is only in God that we can shine out in glory. Both the First Reading and the Gospel point to the restoration of the glory of God among his people. After the people of Israel...
