Then the followers of John the Baptist came to Jesus, asking, “Why is it that we and the Pharisees fast often, but your disciples don't fast at all?” Jesus answered,“No one pours new wine into used wineskins, for the skins will burst, the wine will pour out, and the skins will be ruined. Instead, new wine is poured into fresh wineskins, and both will keep in good condition.”
Matthew 9:14, 17 GNBDK
Reflection:
Our rigidity hurdles our spiritual journey. We are all called to be obedient; but if we stick to our ways, how can we adapt and understand God's ways? The Spirit is willing and the flesh is weak, but with God, all things are possible. Let us ask of him then, to pour out his Spirit in our renewed hearts.
Prayer:
I pray that God our Father gives you the grace to open your heart to his will. May you emulate Jesus Christ in being obedient and may his Holy Spirit lead you to God's ways in fulfilling his plan and purpose for your life. Amen
God Bless you and your loved ones :)
