Computer Cud         Vatican II asks us to read the Bible every day,   'to have a burning love'   for the Word of God              Resolution

This plan follows the Sunday liturgy:     reading + psalm + reading + gospel                  From  www.simplebible.info 

O Holy Spirit, please guide me as I read these passages for today. 
May these passages give me hope, strength, wisdom, courage and peace for my daily life 

Moses continued his teaching:

"Be faithful in keeping all the instructions that I give you,
so that you and your children after you may be happy,
always doing what is good and right
in the eyes of the Lord your God.

If anyone, even someone from your own family,
tries to get you to worship a false god,
have nothing to do with that person.
That person must be punished."

Dear God, please don't let anyone influence me to forget you

So many people live and act as if God doesn't exist.
Some foolish people even say there is no God.

So many people have left the way of justice and truth.
So many people follow the way of falsehood.

Lord, help us to live as we should.
Help us not to slander, help us not to wrong others.

Help us to stand firm in the way of goodness.

A human body is made of many parts: arms, legs, muscles, eyes etc.
Every part is important and needed for the body to be healthy

The church is like a body. We are the body's members.
Some of us are apostles, some prophets, some teachers etc.

The members of the church must care about every member of the church.
Everyone is important. 
The spiritual health of each member affects the health of the whole body

Jesus, help me understand how your church is like a human body

A young man asked Jesus
"Master, what do I have to do to get to Heaven?"

Jesus replied "Keep the commandments:
do not kill;  do not commit adultery; honor your father and mother;
care for others as much as you care about yourself".

The young man said "I have kept all these commandments.
What else do I need to do?"

Jesus said "If you want to do something really special with your life,
go and sell all your possessions, give the money to the poor,
then come and follow me as one of my disciples".

When the young man heard these words he went away sad,
because he was very rich.

Jesus then said to his disciples
"It is hard for a rich person to get to Heaven".

Jesus, please don't let riches endanger my eternal life
