TODAY'S WORD

Acts: 17:28 "For ‘In Him we live and move and have our being’; as even some of your own poets have said, ‘For we too are His offspring.’
REFLECTION FOR FIRST READING
In the 1st reading, the people of Athens had erected an altar "To an Unknown God".
But as much as they acknowledged that there are things that they do not know of, yet at the mention of Jesus rising from the dead, some burst out laughing, while others put that on hold.
We too do not know everything nor do we understand everything.
Searching the Internet for information will gives us a lot of material, and at times too much material.
GOSPEL REFLECTION
And at times, in searching for information, other things will pop up and give us a distraction.
So as much as the Internet has lots and lots of information, not everything is correct or factual or truthful.
Also searching for information on the Internet can be quite time consuming as there is a need to check on the source and credibility of the information.
In the gospel, Jesus said that He has many things to say to us but they would be too much for us now.
But when the Spirit of truth comes, He will lead us to the complete truth.
RESOLUTION
Let's resolve to ask the Holy Spirit to grant us wisdom, knowledge and understanding, then as we search, we will certainly find.
GOD BLESS YOU
Good morning. Have a nice safe day
Happy Nurses Day.*Let's uphold them in our prayers for their selfless and tireless services towards the suffering humanity.
