The Catholic Calendar for Saturday, July 13, 2002 Fourteenth Week in Ordinary Time St. Henry Scripture from today's Liturgy of the Word: Isaiah 6:1-8 Psalm 93:1-2,5 Matthew 10:24-33 A Reflection on Today's Scripture: "Nothing is concealed that will not be revealed, nor secret that will not be known." Today's gospel is full of words of encouragement and comfort. Jesus tells us not to be afraid, that even the hairs on our head are counted, that nothing befalls us without our Father's knowledge. This is encouragement indeed! Knowing that our Father in heaven is always with us no matter what steps we take. If only we would allow Him share our lives more fully! Jesus also tells us that no disciple is above his teacher, no slave above his master. Particularly today, I would like to bring to mind all who are finding their work relationships with bosses and colleagues difficult and unrewarding. Persevering in their dutiful role, acting with faith and integrity, let us remember the words of Jesus quoted above, and know that our Father sees all things and understands our plights and difficulties. Today, let us ask for the strength of the Holy Spirit to enlighten and guide us. We ask this through Christ our Lord.
