Dear Friend in the Lord,
Commitment in Faith: In today’s Gospel, even as everyone admired Jesus for all He did, He knew of His impending Suffering and Death because of His Fidelity to His Father’s Will. Ponder on, “Are we distracted by the praises we receive in our services of God’s people, and lose focus of the main purpose of serving His Will, and out of love for Him?”
Fr Philip Heng, S.J.
Luke 9:43b-45
At a time when everyone was full of admiration for all he did, Jesus said to his disciples, ‘For your part, you must have these words constantly in your mind: The Son of man is going to be handed over into the power of men.’ But they did not understand him when he said this; it was hidden from them so that they should not see the meaning of it, and they were afraid to ask him about what he had just said.
