Gospel
Mark 12:35-37
'David himself calls him Lord'
At that time while teaching in the Temple, Jesus said, ‘How can the scribes maintain that the Christ is the son of David? David himself, moved by the Holy Spirit, said:
The Lord said to my Lord:
Sit at my right hand
and I will put your enemies
under your feet.
David himself calls him Lord, in what way then can he be his son?’ And the great majority of the people heard this with delight.
Reflection
As I was reading this text what made our Lord a great speaker. After reading I realise there are four attributes. 1. The ability to send the message effectively. Christ is effective because large crowd listen when he speaks. Secondly he is consistent and knowledgeable as you can see in the text. Thirdly he has a clear message which is about love and mercy. Finally he is accountable to the Father. Today we are hear as followers of Christ.
Do we promote Christ in our action and our word?
Let us pray
Lord Jesus we know we are your followers. May our words and actions justify that.
Amen
