Todays mass readings! Romans 5: 12, 15, 17 - 19, 20 - 21 12 Therefore as sin came into the world through one man and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all men sinned -- 15 But the free gift is not like the trespass. For if many died through one mans trespass, much more have the grace of God and the free gift in the grace of that one man Jesus Christ abounded for many. 17 If, because of one mans trespass, death reigned through that one man, much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and the free gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man Jesus Christ. 18 Then as one mans trespass led to condemnation for all men, so one mans act of righteousness leads to acquittal and life for all men. 19 For as by one mans disobedience many were made sinners, so by one mans obedience many will be made righteous. 20 Law came in, to increase the trespass; but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more, 21 so that, as sin reigned in death, grace also might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Psalms 40: 7 - 10, 17 7 Then I said, Lo, I come; in the roll of the book it is written of me; 8 I delight to do thy will, O my God; thy law is within my heart. 9 I have told the glad news of deliverance in the great congregation; lo, I have not restrained my lips, as thou knowest, O LORD. 10 I have not hid thy saving help within my heart, I have spoken of thy faithfulness and thy salvation; I have not concealed thy steadfast love and thy faithfulness from the great congregation. 17 As for me, I am poor and needy; but the Lord takes thought for me. Thou art my help and my deliverer; do not tarry, O my God! Luke 12: 35 - 38 35 Let your loins be girded and your lamps burning, 36 and be like men who are waiting for their master to come home from the marriage feast, so that they may open to him at once when he comes and knocks. 37 Blessed are those servants whom the master finds awake when he comes; truly, I say to you, he will gird himself and have them sit at table, and he will come and serve them. 38 If he comes in the second watch, or in the third, and finds them so, blessed are those servants!
