Matthew 10:7-15
YOU RECEIVED WITHOUT CHARGE
The Lord sent his disciples on a mission. He sent to proclaim that the kingdom of heaven is close at hand. We too are sent by the Christ into the world. As we do so,
He expect us to treat ourselves with love not hatred; with kindness not cruelty with compassion and not biases or sentiments. God wants the best for us and wants the best from us. We have received the power of God through our baptism in Christ, we share in the threefold functions of Christ; as king we establish His kingdom, as prophet we proclaim the Good News and as priest we pray through Christ Our Lord.
The best place to start the dream of success is in an agreement between you and God about your life about your vocation, about what your work is and what you hope to accomplish. With His leading in your life, you begin to move into it and work with it until it takes the shape of His blessing.
LET US PRAY
Thank you, God, for all the gifts you give me today and help me connect with all the beautiful gifts you present me each day. Help me realize that when I feel troubled or abandoned, you offer me connections to all your creation. Help me not hoard what I believe belongs only to me. Help me be one of the laborers you send out today.
Thank you for your prayers!
Fr Joseph Osho
