Today's Rosary... The Sorrowful mysteries.

Reflection taken from today's Gospel.

Being a disciple of Christ is not about pretending to be holy. It is about really striving for holiness of life. It is not about pretending to be sinless. It is about struggling daily to overcome the power of sin in our lives. In the Gospel of today, Jesus teaches us by rebuking the Pharisees and the lawyers that holiness is neither a matter of pretension nor of external legalism. It is about love of God and love of neighbour from the depth of our hearts. There is in fact a danger that these two-pretension and external legalism-may become impediments to holiness.

Prayer point... At a time when there are Churches everywhere and yet, our Christianlife and values is far from being Christ-like. It then shows that a lot of Christiansare living a life of pretence. We pray today for God's grace upon our life, that we may leave a life of pure holiness and according to the teachings of the church.

Good morning dear friends

Today's Rosary... The glorious mysteries

Reflection taken from today's Gospel

Dissension is a consequence of enslavement by the senses. St Paul admonishes the Galatians, and indeed all of us, to allow the Spirit to guide us so that we do not become enslaved by our senses. St Ignatius of Antioch, whose memorial the church celebrates today, wrote about the need for harmony in the Church. Division comes when we do not live according to the Gospel but according to our preferences. This is true in the Church and in society. A place where individuals absolutize their preferences over and above the preferences of others is undergoing a civil war. But harmony is found in the city when there is harmony in the souls of its inhabitants, that is, when they allow the Spirit to liberate them from enslavement to the senses.

Prayer point.... We pray for unity among the Christians. That irrespective of our denomination, we should always try to actin one spirit.

Good morning everyone,

Thanks Rich4god for today's reflection. I remember in the past, during October/may devotions (a bi na lent?) we normally choose specific days with petitions and each person gets prayed for on their said days. I dont know what Rich4god is planning this time, but if this can still be done, kindly book me down for the 16th of this month.

It'll be my birthday on the 16th and i'd like to be greedy with my petition. i ask for 4 things:

1: For the missionaries
2. For the poor and needy
3: For the soul of the faithful departed
4: For my sick father

Thanks everyone and have a lovely day/week ahead

Though I'm late on the date, I join you in your prayers. May the good Lord grant your heart desires in accordance to His Holy will. Many happy years ahead.

Today's Rosary... The mysteries of light

Reflection taken from today's Gospel

“Take no purse with you, no haversack, no sandals.” On this feast of St Luke the Evangelist, the instructions given to the 72 by Jesus, speak to us about what preachers of the Gospel must let go. By virtue of our baptism, each of us is an evangelist. We do not all have access to the pulpit. But our evangelizing mission is carried out by witnessing. We are true evangelists if we make the values of the Gospel present wherever we find ourselves. But first, we must allow the seed of the Gospel to be sowed and nurtured in our own hearts.

Prayer point... May God give us the grace to be witness to the Gospelin our words and actions.

Today's Rosary... Joyful Mysteries

Reflection taken from today's Gospel

Pope St John Paul II referred everything to God. And that enabled him to teach us what the Gospel is teaching us today, namely that the human person is greater than what he possesses or desires to possess, greater than what he produces or what he consumes, because he has been created in the image and likeness of God. The human person is not a thing to be manipulated out a being to be related with. Pope St John Paul II teaches us that the destiny of the human person is not in earthly satisfaction. That explains the teaching of Christ in today’s Gospel that it is futile to store up treasure for oneself instead of becoming rich in the sight of God.
