Nineteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year B) 2024

Is God too demanding to require us to love Him with ALL our hearts, ALL our souls and ALL our strength? Modern people are multi-tasking. It is impossible to love God with ALL our strength.

The liturgy for this Sunday invites us to consider the true wisdom of following Jesus in the path of servanthood and childlikeness. Let us ask God's Spirit to grant us this wisdom that we may overcome all craving for false greatness and worldly values.

Who do you say I am? Jesus asks. This Sunday's readings invite us to reflect on the theme of right commitments. Life is full of choices. A believer must have a firm base and stand by the choices he or she has made. If you recognize Jesus as the Son of God, will you bear his cross with him?

God's favor. The readings of this Sunday are on the theme of God's grace.  God wants us to open our eyes and ears to receive his healing grace.  His only request is for us to be faithful.

The Lord's words this Sunday challenge us to look deeply into our hearts, where the spirit of the law resides deeply. Are we ready to do this and make our act of worship consistent with our life?
