Gospel
Luke 21:12-19
You will be hated by all because of my name, but not a hair on your head will be destroyed.
Jesus said to the crowd: “They will seize and persecute you, they will hand you over to the synagogues and to prisons, and they will have you led before kings and governors because of my name. It will lead to your giving testimony. Remember, you are not to prepare your defense beforehand, for I myself shall give you a wisdom in speaking that all your adversaries will be powerless to resist or refute. You will even be handed over by parents, brothers, relatives, and friends, and they will put some of you to death. You will be hated by all because of my name, but not a hair on your head will be destroyed. By your perseverance you will secure your lives.”
Reflection
Christ said those who follow him will face persecution. They might be denounce by their family. We will be hated for proclaiming Christ name However we will be save if we presevere . Can we withstand the challenges we face in Jesus name?
Let us pray.
Lord Jesus only in you can we be save. However the evil one will always try to seperate us from you. May the holy spirit protect and guard us so that we will persevere in you forever and ever.
Amen
