Beware that we take NO offense at God's ways...

Dhikr for the 14th week of the Ordinary year (B)

“When the Sabbath came he began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard him were astonished. They said, ‘Where did this man get all this? What kind of wisdom has been given him? What mighty deeds are wrought by his hands! Is he not the carpenter, the son of Mary, and the brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us?’ And they took offense at him.” (Mark 6: 2-3)

In life’s often mysterious journey, God reveals his/her wisdom and power in people and events that we least expect… It is akin to that “gentle breeze” that reveals God’s “passing by”… Thus beware that we take no offense at the way God reveals him/herself.
