Dear Friend in the Lord,
Mystery of Salvation: In today’s Gospel, Jesus prophesised that for the Good News of Salvation; He will be put to Death and be Raised up on the third day. Those who want to be His disciple, must also have such a total commitment for His Sake. Ponder on, “Are we willing to have such a commitment in our faith in following Jesus? If so, God will always give us the graces we need.”
Fr Philip Heng, S.J.
Luke 9:22-25
Jesus said to his disciples, ‘The Son of man is destined to suffer grievously, to be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes and to be put to death, and to be raised up on the third day.’
Then, speaking to all, he said, ‘If anyone wants to be a follower of mine, let him renounce himself and take up his cross every day and follow me. Anyone who wants to save his life will lose it; but anyone who loses his life for my sake, will save it. What benefit is it to anyone to win the whole world and forfeit or lose his very self?’
