Experience the presence of Jesus Christ in the Gospel and find peace in a special rendition of the Psalm created for today's liturgy from the USCCB.Catholic Daily Readings and Reflection | Thursday of the Third Week of Lent | March 12, 2026There is no neutral ground.Jesus cast out a demon. A mute man spoke for the first time. Some in the crowd accused him of working for the devil. Others demanded a different sign.Then Jesus said something that should terrify every comfortable fence-sitter. Whoever is not with me is against me. Whoever does not gather with me scatters.There is no middle position. No spectator section. You are either actively with Jesus or functionally against him. Neutrality is not an option. Silence is not an option. Waiting to see how things shake out is not an option.The psalm warns: If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts. Today. Not tomorrow. Not when you feel ready.Hardening is not a one-time decision. It is a process. Every time you hear God's voice and do not respond, it becomes easier to ignore him the next time. You do not notice it happening. That is the danger.Which side are you on?📖 ReadingsFirst Reading: Jeremiah 7: 23-28Responsorial: Psalm 95:1-2, 6-7, 8-9Gospel: Luke 11: 14-23⏱️ Timeline00:00 Introduction00:15 Reading I - Jeremiah 7: 23-2801:23 Psalm Response - Psalm 9505:35 Gospel - Luke 11: 14-2306:52 Reflection - Whoever Is Not With Me Is Against Me🎧 Prefer to listen on the go?
