JANUARY 15, 2023 SECOND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
1st Reading: Isaiah 49: 3, 5-6
2nd Reading: 1 Corinthians 1:1-3
Gospel: John 1:29-34
In today’s gospel, we noticed the humility of John the Baptist, who recognized Jesus as the Lamb of God…opposite of humility is pride.
Pride blinds us; humility enlightens us. A lot of things fall into place, a lot of issues become clearer, and a lot of problems can be solved if we take the road of humility.
When we give way, God will make a way. Doors open, relationships are healed, breakthroughs happen when we let go, and we let God.
When we have humility, we can see more clearly, understand more deeply, love more dearly, and live more cheerfully.
Prayer: Lord, help us to be humble, for a humble contrite heart you will not spurn. Amen.
Fr. Dante
