Twenty-fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time

​

Isaiah 55:6-9

For my thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways my ways, says the Lord.

​

Philippians 1:20C-24, 27A

Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or death.

​

Matthew 20:1-16A

“My friend, I am not cheating you...Are you envious because I am generous?”

 

Questions for Reflection

• What did you learn about the Holy Spirit from your religious education? What have you learned since then about the Spirit’s action in your life?

• How do your words and the witness of your life “magnify” the message of Jesus wherever you go?

• Consider one thing about the world that you’re sure could be done better. Then take it to prayer and ask God to direct your heart in this matter.

 

Readings for Next Week:

• Ezekiel 18:25-28;

• Philippians 2:1-11;

• Matthew 21:28-32
