St Teresa of the Child Jesus
Nehemiah 2:1-8. Let my tongue be silenced if I ever forget you! – Ps 136(137):1-6. Luke 9:57-62.
The Son of Man has nowhere to rest his head
Jesus reminds his disciples there are no half-measures when it comes to God. In today’s Gospel, we are reminded that we must live for God and leave all our attachments for him. There is nothing that we can put before God or what he is calling us to. We must obey his words and heed his call. It is only in him we find our home and rest. We must pray to keep this in our heart, so that we are ready when we hear your voice.
Lord, may I hear your voice and heed your call, leaving all behind for you. May I remember to find no home but in your love and mercy.
