Gospel
Luke 12:49-53
How I wish it were blazing already!
Jesus said to his disciples: ‘I have come to bring fire to the earth, and how I wish it were blazing already! There is a baptism I must still receive, and how great is my distress till it is over!
‘Do you suppose that I am here to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but rather division. For from now on a household of five will be divided: three against two and two against three; the father divided against the son, son against father, mother against daughter, daughter against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.’
Reflection
Putting Christ first in our life will definitely create division. There will be people who disagree including family members. Putting Christ first however will put everything into place.
Let us pray
Lord Jesus today you shared putting complete trust in you even if create division. May your will be done.
Amen
