Dear Friend in the Lord,
Sharing God’s Blessings: In today’s Gospel, Jesus proclaims, “The amount you measure out is the amount you will be given. . .” Ponder on, “How much of God’s blessings of our wealth, talents and time do we share? Do we keep God’s blessings for ourselves and our family, and give the ‘left overs’ to others?”
Fr Philip Heng, S.J.
Mark 4:21-25
Jesus said to the crowd, ‘Would you bring in a lamp to put it under a tub or under the bed? Surely you will put it on the lamp-stand? For there is nothing hidden, but it must be disclosed, nothing kept secret except to be brought to light. If anyone has ears to hear, let him listen to this!’
He also said to them, ‘Take notice of what you are hearing. The amount you measure out is the amount you will be given — and more besides; for the man who has, will be given more; from the man who has not, even what he has will be taken away.’
