And so I tell you, Peter: you are a rock, and on this rock foundation I will build my church, and not even death will ever be able to overcome it. I will give you the keys of the Kingdom of heaven; what you prohibit on earth will be prohibited in heaven, and what you permit on earth will be permitted in heaven.”
Matthew 16:18-19 GNBDK
Reflection:
History is important to us as we'd all want to know where we came from. And what Jesus did in today's Gospel is create a moment of history for each one of us, so that we know where we belong. Jesus's mission was to establish his kingdom, that was lost. He did so by picking twelve apostles to represent the twelve tribes. And From it He chose Peter and gave him authority just as the Lord Almighty did to Eliakim in Isaiah 22. It is important we know our history for with it we can make informed choices. What will you chose then?
Prayer:
I pray that God our Father gives you the grace to accept the truth that Jesus his son has put out for all. And thou it may seem a narrow gate may his Holy Spirit help and guide your path. Amen
God Bless you and your loved ones :)
