Monday of the 10th Week of Ordinary Time

Today's readings explore the profound trust required to follow God's call, even when it leads us into uncertainty. We hear how the prophet Elijah obeys God's command to retreat into the wilderness, where he must depend entirely on divine providence for survival. Jesus then reveals in the Beatitudes how those who embrace spiritual poverty and dependence on God discover the path to true blessing. Today's Readings: • First Reading: 1 Kings 17:1-6 • Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 121:1bc-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8 • Gospel: Matthew 5:1-12
