Year B - Thursday of the 12th week in ordinary time

  • Summary

  • Today's readings:

    1. First Reading: Kings 24:8-17
    2. Gospel: Matthew 7:21-29


    Today's readings highlight the consequences of disobedience and the importance of a strong foundation in faith. The first reading recounts the fall of Jerusalem and the exile to Babylon due to the unfaithfulness of the leaders, emphasizing the dire consequences of turning away from God's commandments.

    In the Gospel, Jesus teaches about the necessity of not just hearing His words but acting on them. He uses the metaphor of building a house on rock versus sand to illustrate the importance of a solid foundation in living out His teachings. This parable emphasizes that true discipleship involves more than just outward expressions of faith; it requires a deep commitment to living according to God's will.

    Together, these readings remind us of the importance of obedience to God and the need to build our lives on the solid foundation of His word. They call us to examine our actions and ensure that our faith is genuine, reflected in how we live and respond to God's teachings.

    Today we meditate on the consequences of building on rock. Building on God's words.
