Liturgy reflection:
Today, St. Paul tells us there is no distinction between 'Greek and Jew,' that we are all sons and daughters of God, made in His image.
But while equally made in His divine image, we have a clear choice to make to receive our Creator's favor:
We can choose to embrace a God jealous for our hearts or we can choose everything, anything else the world has to offer.
Think of the Lord's proposition as a matter of focus. If we choose to focus on thoughts and intentions that help to develop our loving relationship with the Lord, blessings proceed from all of our life's experiences, both those perceived to be good and bad.
And...
We can choose to focus on the secular. The inference here is utter loneliness, as we self-praise and worship, leaving our beloved Father out of the mix! Put Him first!
How will you choose? What will your focus be?
God Bless you.
Practical Tip Of The Day:
Schedule to attend one Mass this week at a local Catholic Church and focus on the Mass's liturgy and homily.
Write down one thought in a notebook, journal, daily planner that speaks to you.
Ponder and pray over that thought and see what the Lord wants you to do next (Doubtful that this is practical? Watch the video below for inspiration.)
Amen!
