Good day!
Liturgical reflection:
Today, Daniel interprets the 'writing on the wall' on behalf of King Belshazzar. And the interpretation is not to the king's favor as he sins - praising false gods, desecrating sacred temple vessels. What is interesting is Daniel, as prophet, discerns the Lord's will, graces, judgments and mercy. And while the King is not a believer, he can not hear His truth and not be intrigued by what He says. He might miss the Lord's point, but, nonetheless, feels like he needs to hear it.
Today, let's take today's readings and promise to us to the next level. Let's make the Bible our textbook on life. While King Belshazzar is intrigued, he does not experience a real conversion even when the truth is as direct as a visual writing on a wall.
Fortunately, today, we have the Bible. If we study it, and pray over it, we will receive His graces and favor. We will be able to take all of our circumstances and make sense of them as the Lord wants us to, as His word helps us to.
May God Bless you.
