Twenty-Second Sunday in O.T.

September 3, 2017

In one way or another, we are all like Peter. One day, we’re

boldly asserting the place faith has in our lives, and the

next, we downplay the role of faith or minimize the

changes we know we must make in order to live as

disciples of Jesus Christ. What challenges do you face in

living your faith at work or school? Are there questions of

ethical behavior, compassion for others, commitment to

Sunday/holy day Mass, or facing temptations to take part

in inappropriate behavior?

When considering what we really need, and not what we

want, we want and need a relationship with God and with

others. ©catholiclifeandfaith2017

El evangelista hoy nos invita a seguir el camino más

difícil, pero él único que nos llevará a la salvación.

Debemos vivir como Jesús, abiertos, acogedores;

buscando no sólo nuestro bien, sino el bien común.

Hoy, vivimos a nuestro aire, tratando cada día de tener

más, nada nos satisface. Cambiamos continuamente y nos

vamos haciendo esclavos del consumismo. Poco nos

importa que haya hermanos que cada día mueren por pasar

las fronteras buscando una vida digna.

Jesús no puede hablar con más claridad: quién quiera

salvarse debe seguirle, liberarse de las ataduras, amar sin

límites, confiar totalmente en Él.

A todos nos gusta vivir cómodamente, sin conflictos ni

sobresaltos, pero si queremos ser fieles a Cristo tenemos

que perder privilegios, soltar comodidades y aprender a

vivir arriesgando la vida por los demás. Sólo de esa forma

ganaremos la verdadera vida.

¿Estamos dispuestos a correr el riesgo personalmente? ¿Y

con nuestra comunidad?

Pope Francis September Prayer Intention

Week One Prayers for Season of Creation

Moment of Contemplation

“Our common home is like a

sister with whom we share our

life, and beautiful mother who

opens her arms to embrace

us.” (Pope Francis)

Reflection Question: What is

the violence I do towards the

environment- in what I do and

in what I fail to do?

Prayer for the Week: All-

powerful God, fill us with

peace, that we may live as

brothers and sisters, harming

no one. O God of the poor,

help us to rescue the

abandoned and forgotten of

this earth, so precious in your

eyes.
