Dear Friend in the Lord,
“Trust in God’s Providence”: In today’s Gospel, Jesus empowered His Twelve apostles to expel devils, cure diseases and proclaim the Good News of Salvation. And, they were to totally entrust themselves to God’s Providence. Ponder on, “Do we serve God as though, the outcomes depend on Him, and not on us? Do our talents distract us from seeking God’s Will more wholeheartedly?”
Fr Philip Heng, S.J.
Luke 9:1-6
Jesus called the Twelve together and gave them power and authority over all devils and to cure diseases, and he sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal.
He said to them, ‘Take nothing for the journey: neither staff, nor haversack, nor bread, nor money; and do not have a spare tunic. Whatever house you enter, stay there; and when you leave let your departure be from there. As for those who do not welcome you, when you leave their town shake the dust from your feet as evidence against them.’
So they set out and went from village to village proclaiming the good news and healing everywhere.
