32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time Year B

Send us Fan MailOn this 32nd Sunday in Ordinary time, we are called upon to show humility in all our endeavours, not to be self-seeking, not to be consumed with the desire for "places of honour". We are called upon to take at least these 2 lessons from our readings today:Firstly that the true “place of honour” is the place of the greatest humility.  True honour, in the eyes of God, is found when we serve without notice and give without recognition.  In this way our giving and serving are done purely out of a motivation of love and not self-serving intentions.  The humble person does not seek to be praised and honored for the love they give.  The act of giving and serving is itself the gift they receive.Secondly that the reciting of lengthy prayers is not the same as praying.  Prayer is about one thing.  It’s about entering into communion with God.  It’s about establishing a relationship with Him in a deep, beautiful and abiding way.  It’s about love.  Prayer is not for show or to gain the admiration of others.We pray that God the Father creator of everything, Jesus Christ His Son & our brother and God the Holy spirit of Truth our protector and guide will help be people if true prayer praise. We also pray for the grace to remain humble and true.Amen.Support the show
