Empowered to Serve
September 25, 2024 Wednesday of the Twenty-fifth Week in Ordinary Time
Daily Readings: Proverbs 30:5-9; Luke 9:1-6
Jesus empowers His disciples to continue His mission. He gives them authority over demons and illness and sends them to proclaim the Kingdom of God and heal the sick.
Each follower of Christ is called to play a role in God's unfolding Kingdom. The disciples, once learners, are now equipped to spread the gospel. We, too, are called to be witnesses of His love and light.
True ministry relies not on human strength but on divine authority. Jesus models reliance on God’s strength rather than our own abilities. His instructions show God’s providence.
Call to Action for Catholic Living: Let us reflect on how we can extend God’s love—whether through service, sharing our testimony, or advocating for the voiceless. Embracing our mission with faith, we trust in God's provision and the Holy Spirit's empowerment.
May we approach our calling with joy and unwavering trust in God. Amen.
Radio Veritas Asia (RVA), a media platform of the Catholic Church, aims to share Christ. RVA started in 1969 as a continental Catholic radio station to serve Asian countries in their respective local language, thus earning the tag “the Voice of Asian Christianity.” Responding to the emerging context, RVA embraced media platforms to connect with the global Asian audience via its 21 language websites and various social media platforms.
