SUNDAY, 7 AUGUST 2016, "BEING CHRISTIAN: A GREAT RESPONSIBILITY"

FIRST READING: Wisdom 18:6-9 SECOND READING: Hebrews 11:1-2,8-19 GOSPEL: Luke 12:32-48
Peter said, 'Lord, is this parable for us or for everyone?' Instead of answering his question, Jesus explains him about the servant-hood. A servant knows well about master. What master likes or dislikes. Being Christian is a great task. It can not be carried out without faith. Following the Lord is not as simple. In-order to be true christian means living up to the values taught by Jesus Christ. The values of justice, peace, mercy and love. In the world today we may find it difficult to be a christian. But the hope and faith in Jesus would surely guide us and enable us to carry out whatever we are doing. Let us build up our faith in him and inculcate the values taught by him in our daily lives. Being christian is a great responsibility, let us carry out with love and faith.


Quote:"I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else."-C.S. Lewis
