In those days, in that time, I will raise up for David a just shoot ; he shall do what is right and just in the land. In those days Judah shall be safe and Jerusalem shall dwell secure; this is what they shall call her: “The LORD our justice.” Responsorial Psalm – Ps 25:4-5, 8-9, 10, 14 R. (1B) To you, O Lord, I lift my soul. Your ways, O LORD, make known to me; teach me your paths, Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my savior, and for you I wait all the day. R. To you, O Lord, I lift my soul. Good and upright is the LORD; thus he shows sinners the way. He guides the humble to justice, and teaches the humble his way. R. To you, O Lord, I lift my soul. All the paths of the LORD are kindness and constancy toward those who keep his covenant and his decrees. The friendship of the LORD is with those who fear him, and his covenant, for their instruction. R. To you, O Lord, I lift my soul. Reading II – 1 Thes 3:12 – 4:2 Brothers and sisters: May the Lord make you increase and abound in love for one another and for all, just as we have for you, so as to strengthen your hearts, to be blameless in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his holy ones. Amen. Finally, brothers and sisters, we earnestly ask and exhort you in the Lord Jesus that, as you received from us how you should conduct yourselves to please God and as you are conducting yourselves you do so even more. For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord Jesus. Alleluia – Ps 85:8 R. Alleluia, alleluia. Show us, Lord, your love; and grant us your salvation. R. Alleluia, alleluia. Gospel – Lk 21:25-28, 34-36 Jesus said to his disciples: “There will be signs in the sun, the moon, and the stars, and on earth nations will be in dismay, perplexed by the roaring of the sea and the waves. People will die of fright in anticipation of what is coming upon the world, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. And then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. But when these signs begin to happen, stand erect and raise your heads because your redemption is at hand. “Beware that your hearts do not become drowsy from carousing and drunkenness and the anxieties of daily life, and that day catch you by surprise like a trap. For that day will assault everyone who lives on the face of the earth. Be vigilant at all times and pray that you have the strength to escape the tribulations that are imminent and to stand before the Son of Man.” Read Today’s Reflection Read more >> Daily Readings November 2021 S M T W T F S « Oct Dec » 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 Follow Us Inspirational Blog Finish The Masterpiece In Your Hands Chocolate Crossroads The Hidden Self The Truth Always Surfaces Letting Go My Little Ballerina The Shadow of Your Smile I Can’t Wait Till Morning The Shirt Off Your Back Victor’s Fable The Scar You Sound Familiar I Knew You’d Be Here Meet Carl, Christmas Class of 2020 The Guest Bedroom A Panda Bear Thanksgiving in 2020 We’re Not in Kansas Anymore The Last Laugh The Longest Drive Matthew Pass Your Plate Dance With Me Never Really Alone Epiphany on the Back Patio Freedom at 5:11 The New COVID Catacombs Behind The Coronavirus Mask No Doctors Just Patients The Virus, the Victims and the Victory Nobody Makes the Journey Alone One Foot in Christmas, One Foot in Easter Epiphany 2020 Foresight is 2020 Peace on Earth, Peace in Me Thanksgiving Chaos of Unpredictable Joy A Midsummer Night’s Narrative Foul Balls And A Father’s Love Ears – A Mother’s Day Tribute The Best, The Rest And The Greatest Easter Ashes-to-Ashes, Love-to-Love Life’s Bouquet Of Love Christmas And The Homeless Baby Death, A Meal Best Served Live The Nicodemus Factor Aromatherapy Pave the Yellow Brick Road The House You Build Priorities Freedom’s Price Truth is More Precious Are you a Carrot, an Egg or a Coffee Bean?
