Readings for the 15th Sunday of the Year (C)
1st Reading: God's word is to be put into practice now, today ...not in the far distant future
Responsorial Psalm (Ps 68): Seeking to put God's word into practice revives our hearts
2nd Reading: Reconciliation is not something for the future....it can be achieved today...in him who made peace by dying on the Cross
Gospel: The time to be a Good Samaritan is not at some far distant date....but today
Reflection:
This
moving homily of Pope Francis, of one week ago, has these words:
Today we have lost the sense of fraternal responsibility;
we have fallen into the hypocritical attitude of the priest and of the servant
of the altar that Jesus speaks about in the parable of the Good
Samaritan: We
look upon the brother half dead by the roadside, perhaps we think “poor
guy,” and we continue on our way, it’s none of our business
Prayer:
Jesus, the "person by the road"
is you. Please don't let me pass you by without helping you
