Inspirational Quotes:
At one point in life you either have the thing you want or reasons why you don’t. – Andy Roddick
Kindness is the language that the deaf can hear and the blind can see. – Mark Twain
All the forces in the world are not so powerful as an idea whose time has come. – Victor Hugo
The reward of our work is not what we get, but what we become. – Paulo Coelho
Never let your sense of morals prevent you from do-ing what is right. - Isaac Asimov
TWENTY-FIFTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME Who’s the boss?
A parish secretary worked at an urban church with five resident priests. One priest was retired, two had ministries elsewhere, and two were actively engaged in the parish itself. The secretary worked for all five men, handling incoming calls and written correspondence, crafting bulletins, running errands, even sewing the occasional loose button or laundering a stained sweater. No matter whose task she performed first, she never escaped the charge of favoritism, because anything more than one boss doesn’t work. If Jesus is our Lord, everything and everybody else takes a backseat.
TODAY'S READINGS: Amos 8:4-7; 1 Timothy 2:1-8; Luke 16:1-13 (135). “No servant can serve two masters.”
¿Quién es el jefe? Una secretaria parroquial trabajaba en una iglesia urbana con cinco sacerdotes residentes. Un sacerdote estaba retirado, dos tenían ministerios en otros lugares, y dos estaban activamente ocupados en la parroquia misma. La secretaria trabajaba para todos los cinco, administrando llamadas entrantes y correspondencia escrita, diseñando boletines, haciendo trámites, hasta cosiendo el ocasional botón suelto o lavando un suéter manchado. Sin importar de quién fuese la tarea que hiciera primero, nunca escapaba al cargo de favoritismo, porque con más de un jefe las cosas nunca salen bien. Si Jesús es nuestro Señor, todo y todos quedan relegados a un segundo plano.
LECTURAS PARA HOY: Amós 8:4-7; 1 Timoteo 2:1-8; Lucas 16:1-13 (135). “Un siervo no puede servir a dos amos.”

PRIÈRE D’OUVERTURE
Dieu notre Père, toi qui te soucies des plus faibles et des plus
pauvres, nous te prions: donne-nous de désirer tes
richesses spirituelles plutôt que celles d’ici-bas.
Ainsi, notre bonheur aura un goût d’éternité. Nous
te le demandons par Jésus le Christ, notre Sei-
gneur. Amen.

Digne de Confiance Le Seigneur nous invite à être des personnes dignes de con-fiance dans les moindres choses et à persévérer dans la re-cherche du bien. Ainsi, nos gestes et nos décisions seront dictés par la profondeur de notre relation à Dieu qui est justice, amour et droiture.
PRIÈRE: Père, donne-nous d’agir en bons gestionnaires du Royaume. Que l’argent et les biens matériels qui nous sont confiés mènent au partage, à la justice et à la charité. Ainsi, tu pourras nous trouver dignes de confiance dans la moin-dre chose. Nous te le demandons, par Jésus, le Christ, notre Seigneur. Amen.
