Gospel Reflection for November 23, 2014: Feast of Christ the King. Sunday scripture readings: Ezekiel 34.11-12,15-17; 1 Corinthians 15.20-26,28; Matthew 25.31-46 “Lord, when was it that we saw you hungry and gave you food, or thirsty and gave you something to drink? And when was it that we saw you a stranger and welcomed you or naked and gave you clothing? And when was it that we saw you sick or in prison and visited you? And the king will answer them, “Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of my brothers and sisters, you did it to me.” Matthew 25.37-40 Matthew’s gospel places the judgment of the nations immediately before Jesus’ passion in the flow of the gospel narrative. In his passion Jesus himself becomes the least among us, suffering the kind of execution aimed to shame and subdue rebellious slaves. Sunday’s parable invites us to recognize Jesus is all those who suffer. In whom that you know do you see Jesus suffering? Stay Blessed people!!!:-)
