WEDNESDAY 14TH WEEK IN ORDINARY TIME YEAR B.
1ST READING: HOSEA 10:1-3.7-8.12
GOSPEL: MATTHEW 10:1-7
THEME: NO MATTER OUR SINS, HE STILL CARES FOR HIS PEOPLE.
In the first reading, God was still complaining about the sins of Israelites that grew with them. It is the same with us today. As we grow in development, we grow also in sin. Technology came to help us but we are using them as avenue for sins. All sorts of atrocities are now done through the product of science and technology. As we are doing these, God is still planning on how to save us. How?
In the gospel, he called men who will learn from him all that he learnt from his father to help the gospel to reach to the ends of the world. He called men from all works of life especially those whom the society regarded as nothing or sinners.
He called the weak that they may understand those who are weak also. He cares for us even when we sin. Jesus died for us even when we were still sinners (Romans 5:8). He does not look on our sins before planning for our salvation. He calls men today to his vineyard to save his people. We should recognised that and follow him and it shall be well with us. Thanks.
