Monday (October 6, 2014) Go and Do Likewise Read: Luke 10:25-37 Reflect: It was cold early morning, a man passing by a slum caught the attention of a hungry boy in the corner street. Seeing this, the man filled with pity went to a store and bought pieces of hot bread then gave it to the boy. The boy gladly thanked the man and to his surprise, the boy ran to a group of beggars several meters away and shared his bread with them. How ready are we to share even the little we have? What does Jesus story tell us about true love for ones neighbor? First, we must be willing to help even if others brought trouble on themselves through their own fault or negligence. Second, our love and concern to help others in need must be practical. Good intentions and showing pity are not enough. And lastly, our love for others must be as wide and as inclusive as Gods love. God excludes no one from his care and concern. Gods love is unconditional. Just as God is so good to us, how ready are we to do good to others for their sake? Resolve: Lord Jesus, may your love always be the foundation of my life. Free me from every fear and selfish-concern that I may freely give myself in loving service to others. _____ want to be a missionary brother or priest? talk to us: SVD-PHN Vocation Divine Word Seminary, Urdaneta City, Pangasinan svdphnvocation@gmail / (+63) 0920-5931-540 / (075) 568-4186
