5 WEEKDAY READINGS SCRIPTURE INSIGHTS MONDAY JULY 17, 2017 EXODUS 1:8-14, 22 MATTHEW 10:34 11:1 Today s readings use farming images to teach about God s powerful Word and about our receptiveness to that Word. The First Reading is part of an oracle, a prophetic message of consolation intended for the people of Judah as they suffered in the Babylonian exile. God s Word is gentle like rain, the prophet says, and as effective as the watered earth, which gives life to seeds and produces food for the hungry. In the Second Reading, Paul uses creation and birthing imagery to talk about the glory that awaits us in the life to come. His argument is difficult to follow in part because of some grammatical problems with the text, but also because he is referring to the Adam and Eve story from Genesis. Paul is saying that God s cursing of the ground as a result of Adam s sin (Genesis 3:17) is a reason for hope, not despair. Creation as we know it is like a women in labor who is about to give birth, and the baptized are the first fruits of the harvest offered to God as a pledge that all of creation will one day be redeemed. The Gospel reminds us that the fruitfulness of the earth and our own lives should not be taken for granted. Matthew describes Jesus as teaching a parable about planting seeds. A parable is a true-to-life symbolic story that surprises its hearers with its message. Everyone in Jesus time would have known about the challenges of farming. But the surprising thing is that the good soil those who hear God s Word and act on it produces a harvest so abundant that it would have been impossible in the ancient world and still today. TUESDAY JULY 18, 2017 ST. CAMILUS DE LELLIS, PRIEST EXODUS 2:1-15A MATTHEW 11:20-24 WEDNESDAY, JULY 19, 2017 EXODUS 3:1-6, 9-12 MATTHEW 11:25-27 THURSDAY JULY 20, 2017 ST. APOLLINARIS, BISHOP EXODUS 3:13-20 MATTHEW 11:28-30 FRIDAY JULY 21, 2017 ST. LAWRENCE OF BRINDISI, PRIEST EXODUS 11:10 12:14 MATTHEW 12:1-8 SATURDAY JULY 22, 2017 ST. MARY MAGDALENE EXODUS 12:37-42 JOHN 20:1-2, Carefully read today s Gospel. Based on the text, what are the different types of soil mentioned in the parable and what do they represent? As you reflect on Jesus parable of the sower and the seed, what kind of soil are you now? What do you need to do to become the good soil? Isaiah describes God s Word as gentle like rain. What imagery would you use to describe God s Word in your life? Aunque no hay un Código de Vestimento escrito sobre cómo deben vestirse los fieles cuando asisten a la Misa, el sentido común dicta vestimento adecuado y modesto y un ambiente de silencio y devoción cuando en la Presencia Real del Señor. La Misa no es una reunión social. Aquellos que reconocen la Presencia Real del Señor en la Iglesia muestran respeto, reverencia y orgullo.
