Gospel Reflection

Hear Jesus’ words:

When you pray, pray privately alone,
when you fast, don’t make a show of it,
don’t do it to be seen;
and your Father who sees in secret
will reward you.

Believe what Jesus says,
God is generous; God is good.

Amen

Gospel Reading - The family of Jesus

46,47 As Jesus was speaking in a crowded house (Implied in Mark 3:32.) his mother and brothers were outside, wanting to talk to him. When someone told him they were there, 48 he remarked, "Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?" 49 He pointed to his disciples. "Look!" he said, "these are my mother and brothers." 50 Then he added, "Anyone who obeys my Father in heaven is my brother, sister and mother!"

The Lord's Prayer

Our Father in heaven,
     hallowed be your name,
     your kingdom come,
     your will be done,
          on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins
     as we forgive those who sin against us.
Save us from the time of trial
     and deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours
     now and for ever.
Amen.
