September 29 – 26th Sunday in Ordinary Time

We rarely, if ever, picture Jesus as ranting and raving. But that’s the picture today’s Gospel presents. Jesus is outraged that anyone who has experienced God’s abundant blessings would dare to limit what God could do with those blessings. His language is graphic, and the message is clear: Whoever does even tiny deeds for others will be rewarded with salvation. What tiny deeds will you do this week to care for the weak and vulnerable, including our vulnerable planet?

Prayer:  O Holy Spirit, awaken us to counter the culture of waste with simple living and reflective buying. Inspire us with ways to answer the cries of the earth: “Save Me. Save Me.”
