October 10 - Weekday in Ordinary Time

+ Our first reading today states that “for freedom Christ set us free.”

He will not force us to believe in him.

Similarly, “no sign will be given” if people presume that the marvel of a miracle will convince them to believe in Jesus Christ.

There is something greater than Jonah here,” the gospel of Luke proclaims.

Only when we expect something greater than what we can imagine or plan does faith in Christ make sense.

Freedom leads to that conviction.

And so today: reach not only for the stars but beyond them: reach for the glory of God, life in the new heaven and the new earth, and perfect union of mind and heart with all saved and redeemed brothers and sisters.

And pray to be but a humble instrument in bringing in the lost sheep! After all we can be then answer to their wildest dreams and desires of their hearts!

If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
