you may have. Every household attending

home and study.
Every

Reflections
Today’s
Reflection
Lk
10:25-37
Jesus was a great storyteller. We
can imagine how fascinating his voice and
manner must have been when he told the
parable of the Good Samaritan to the
lawyer who wanted to be saved. And how
surprised the lawyer must have been when
he heard the answer to the question
“Who is my neighbor?” My
neighbor is not just the person next door
or a member of my parish or my racial
group. My neighbor is anyone in need?even
if he or she seems to be an enemy.
Jesus’ parable reveals the true
meaning of love of neighbor. It is going
out of our way to do everything for
someone that we would want done for
us.
1.) What is Jesus’ message in
this parable?
2.) If you truly understand
Jesus’ message, how could you carry
it out in your own school, neighborhood,
or parish?
Next
Week's
Reflection
Lk
10:38-42
A guest shows up, probably
unexpectedly, and the hostess, Martha,
knocks herself out trying to do everything
at once. The guest, Jesus, sits down and
makes himself at home. The sister of the
hostess, Mary, sits with Jesus, and
listens thoughtfully. When Martha
complains that she is doing all the work,
Jesus tells her that she has forgotten the
most important thing. She has neglected to
listen to Jesus, whose words are more
nourishing than any meal.
1.) How can we put more Mary-like
listening into our lives?
2.) When do we make time to listen
to our families? our friends? When do we
make time to listen to Jesus?
