Reflection:
Three different scenarios are presented in today's gospel to which Jesus replies accordingly. However, the core context is to always put God first, irrespective of our personal circumstance. God is more interested in our character rather than comfort which is why Jesus says he doesn't have a place to lie down, how much are we willingly to trust his providence? And so it is with those that have gone before us, Jesus knows the pain of death for he wept for Lazarus, but he wants us to know that he has conquered death itself and we have the hope of resurrection. The same with our past; it is where it rightfully belongs in the past. Once we embrace the new life in Christ, we cannot keep looking back.
Prayer:
I pray that God our Father gives you the grace to always trust his ways as you out him first. May all you do, be for his glory, just as Jesus did. And may his Holy Spirit bless you with wisdom, knowledge and understanding. Amen
God Bless you and your loved ones :)
