Homily
for July 14, 2017
Today, Jesus describes the challenges
of mission. It is like sheep moving in the midst of wolves. We are bound to
face attacks from different corners and would often be tempted to give up.
However, in other for us to succeed,
we would be wise as serpents and innocent as doves. The serpent is used as an
analogy for wisdom because of the way and manner it operates, it is difficult
to kill.
And like doves, we must be truly innocent;
free from sin, free from blame and Godly minded
In the midst of the hostility we find
around us, our endurance like Joseph whose family reunited with him eventually
will see us through.
Let
us pray: Lord Jesus, the road is hard and tough but I trust you will lead me
through. Amen.
*Be Happy. Live Positive. Have Faith.
It is well with you. God bless you. (Friday of the 14th week in
Ordinary Time. Year A. Bible Study: Genesis
46:1-7, 28-30 and Matthew 10:16-23).*
Fr. Abu.
