Today's Gospel
It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for someone rich to enter the kingdom of Heaven.
Matthew 19: 23 - 30.
Breaking Open The Word
No one can serve both God and money because either one will be loved and the other hated, or one will be served and the other detested.

To Ponder
“It is much harder for a rich person to enter the Kingdom…” What are the “riches” that are weighing you down? What attachments can you let go of?
Where has the Spirit drawn you in today's prayer?
Closing Prayer
All Loving God
Cultivate in us a spirituality that flows out of Marian simplicity, humility and modesty.
Release in us wellsprings of refreshment, inspiration and excitement for your work in which we share.
Help us set our gaze on those people and places most in need of Christlife,
Impel us to respond together,
And lead us to be in communion with one another, and with you.
Like Mary, we listen for your invitation,
Like Mary, we set out joyfully and in haste to the hill country of the lives of young people,
Like Mary, we build communities in ways that are Christ-centred.
All Loving God, come and live in our hearts.
Amen
