Gospel
Luke 11:27-28
'Happy the womb that bore you and the breasts you sucked!'
As Jesus was speaking, a woman in the crowd raised her voice and said, ‘Happy the womb that bore you and the breasts you sucked!’ But he replied, ‘Still happier those who hear the word of God and keep it!’
Reflection
Blessed are those who hear the word of God and observe it. What is the word of God? To some the word of God is a way of life. To some it is a road map to where we are going. What is more important is the two steps recommended by Jesus. Firstly to read or listen to the word of God. Secondly to put it into practice. Do we read and listen to the word as part of our life?
Let us pray
Lord Jesus in our daily lives we are met with challenges and obstacles. One of the way you give your answer is through readings in the bible. Help us oh lord to make reading the word of God and observe it as a way of life.
Amen
