FRIDAY AFTER ASH WEDNESDAY
Seek GOOD and not EVIL
"Seek good and not evil, that you may live; and the Lord will be with you." (Amos 5:14).
Today, the first Friday after Ash Wednesday, prophet Amos in the Gospel acclamation admonished us with these words:
"Seek good and not evil, that you may live; and the Lord will be with you." (Amos 5:14). This of course is an invitation to holiness. In our daily struggle, communication, relationship, etc. What and what are our interest? Why do we seek the fall of others? Why thinking that the love of God shoud be restricted only to ourselves? Why always "I" before others? These pertinent questions demand personal answer in our reflection today. The questions posed before us are all gearing toward the evil that prophet Amos warned against today.
Dearest in the Lord, let us seek after all that is good so that our Lenten walk with the Lord may be fruitful, and God may be all in all among us. Peace of Christ be with you!
Fada PIUSRALPH prays for you!
LET US PRAY
Eternal God, Yours is the earth and its fullness, grant we pray the grace to see good in every event of life. May our daily Lenten struggle be pleasing to you through Christ our Lord, Amen
Amen 🙌🙏
