THURSDAY, 18 AUGUST 2016, "NEED FOR NEW HEART AND SPIRIT"

FIRST READING:Ezekiel 36:23-28 / GOSPEL: Matthew 22:1-14
I believe that God loves me and loves everyone in the world. God created us and loves. As a parents who feel for their children so too God feels for us. God knows all our ups and downs. All our struggles and pains. We are more dear to God than ourselves or for others. When living our life, in this busy world, unaware of the goodness of God, we begin to worship God chosen by ourselves. These idols or gods can be our pride, authority, power, money so on and so forth. And unconsciously we forget the loving nature of God. Yet God doesn't forget us. Through today's readings God is pleading to us to abandon our in the gods we worship (money, authority, power, pride). God invites us to a greater relationship with him. And only we need to put on the garment of goodness. And yes we are almost there in the Kingdom of God. 


ACTION PLAN:"Today, see if you can stretch your heart and expand your love so taht it touches not only those to whom you give it easily, but also those who need it so much."-Daphine Rose Kingma
