Catholic Mass Readings Of The Day! SUNDAY 7 December 2014, 2ND SUNDAY OF ADVENT! Isa 40:1-5, 9-11 (A way for the Lord) Ps 85:9-&10,11-12,13-14 (A voice of Peace) 2 Pet 3:8-14 (New heaven & earth) Mark 1:1-8 (Gospel) PREPARE THE WAY During the Advent season, we have our own sets of expectations, longing for a better world. While it is true that the reign of God has, in Jesus Christ, been established among us, it is likewise true that we humans have not responded to Gods offer, as we should. We long for peace. We cry out for justice. Security remains elusive. Dishonesty, corruption and greed still beset us. We lament the condition of the world we have to live. Yet, God continues to come into such a world much like he came two thousand years ago. He continues to challenge us to remain as positive as we can be. He continues to call us to selflessness, generosity, honesty and love even in the negative of this life. He was not recognized by most of the people when he first came. Will we recognise him when He comes now? Will we recognise the one who comes? ~ Reflection on the Holy Gospel According to Mark 1:1-8 youtu.be/a5AKrKRjCqM?list=PLbIwWtTe1RjsA_hnVsB0-x4mykwc6K8dC
