Religion & Spirituality
Today we celebrate the 22nd Sunday of Ordinary Time. In the Gospel for this week challenges us to look beyond the externals. It is easy for us to think we are leading a spiritual life because we read Scripture, pray a Rosary, etc. Although these practices are wonderful, the Lord is challenging us to realize that our Lord is calling for more than this - he is calling us to transform, to change, to surrender our lives and to grow in holiness. May we be open to our Lord who wants more for us than we often want for ourselves.
