Nineteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time - August 11, 2019

Scripture Reflection

 

"Your Father is pleased to give you the kingdom," Jesus tells us. In this Sunday's Gospel, Jesus reminds us to have the right attitude for the gifts and callings he wants to give us!
 

"Where your treasure is, there also will your heart be." Jesus reminds the disciples that earthly standards of security and success will wear out in time. If our lives are structured around values that don't align with the kingdom of God, we'll miss opportunities to receive God.

 

Make sure faith is a priority. Pray as a family before meals. Bring your children regularly to the sacrament of confession. Make room in the schedule for faith enrichment activities offered by your parish. He calls each of us to greater love, sometimes in very concrete ways. This week, take some time to consider: Will you be ready? © LPi
