TOPIC: DO WE TRUST IN GOD’S GRACE AND MERCY AND SUBMIT TO HIS WORD?
First Reading: Isaiah 6: 1-8
Responsorial Psalm: Psalms 93: 1ab, 1cd-2, 5
Alleluia: First Peter 4: 14
Gospel: Matthew 10: 24-33
Fear is a powerful force. It can lead us to panic and flight or it can spur us to faith and action. The fear of God is the antidote to the fear of losing one’s life.
What is godly fear? It is reverence for the One who made us in love and who sustains us in mercy and kindness. The greatest injury or loss which we can experience is not physical but spiritual-the loss of one’s soul to the power of hell. A healthy fear of God leads to spiritual maturity, wisdom and right judgment and it frees us from the tyranny of sinful pride and cowardice, especially in the face of evil and spiritual deception.
This is the 1538th installment of our CFC contemplation series focusing on the daily liturgical readings.
[NOTE: Let us listen to our brother Solphie Confiado, as he brings us today's reflection.
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. This video is also available on Couples for Christ’s Facebook page. In You Tube, just type ONLY BY GRACE REFLECTIONS]
