Short Reflection for the 21st
Sunday in Ordinary Time (C)
Readings: Isaiah 66:18-21; Hebrews 12:5-7, 11-13; Luke 13:22-30.
Selected Passage: “Someone asked him, "Lord, will only a
few people be saved?" He answered them, "Strive to enter through the
narrow gate, for many, I tell you, will attempt to enter but will not be strong
enough.” (Luke 13: 23-24)
Meditation: To enter the Kingdom of God is not a question of
strength and merit. No one is strong
enough and neither anyone is meritorious enough to win the Kingdom! It is a
GIFT. But walking along the path of
Jesus means to bear fruits. And fruits associated to the lives of Christians
are – justice, charity and mercy! So pray for these fruits. Remember that the
Kingdom is God’s gratuitous offer to all! Cf. www.badaliyya.blogspot.com
