Daily Readings: Ephesians 4:1-6; Luke 12:54-59
I hear a lot of people asking for signs these days – signs if he or she is the right person to marry, which decision to make, which choice to take or which offer to accept. At times, many of us become superstitious interpreting or rather misinterpreting the things happening to us or around us as signs of something like end of the world.
Jesus rebuked those asking for signs. In today’s Gospel He said, ““Why do you not judge for yourselves what is right?”
Why are we often confused about our choices and actions that we need sign? Why can’t we judge for ourselves what is right?
This is because we are separated from God. This is because our will is not aligned to His will. The first reading tells us, “Preserve the unity of the spirit through the bond of peace”. If we are united with God, if we are at peace with God, we always see His face.
Call to Action for Catholic Living: We always know what to do because we are focused on Him. Our vision is blurred, so is everything else, when we break our bond with Christ.
Only through Christ, in Christ and with Christ that we see and act rightly.
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.
