2 Page 2 READINGS FOR SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 2019 FOURTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME First Reading: Jeremiah 1:4-5, Second Reading: 1 Corinthians 12:31 13:13; or 13:4-13 Gospel: Luke 4:21-30 FOCUS: We are witnesses to Jesus, primarily through our love for one another. God calls some people, such as Jeremiah, to be prophets to bring others to him by speaking God s words to them. Most of us, however, are called to be witnesses through the love that we show each day in our actions and words. No matter what we do, it must always be expressed in love. LITURGY OF THE WORD: In the first reading, we hear God s call to Jeremiah and his assurance that he will always be with him, no matter how much others oppose him. In Paul s Letter to the Corinthians, he speaks of the more excellent way of love, the very foundation of the Christian life. Jesus, in the Gospel, is not accepted in his own hometown. Readings for next week, February 10, Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time: Isaiah 6:1-2a, 3-8; 1 Corinthians 15:1-11 or 15:3-8, 11; Luke 5:1-11 From Liturgical Commission Publishing, Lansing, MI FOSTERING STEWARDSHIP AS A WAY OF LIFE PARISH SACRIFICIAL GIVING In today s first reading, God calls Jeremiah to be His voice in the world. In today s society it is not always easy to stand up for what is right--but fear not! For God is with us as He was with Jeremiah.
