Theme: Search for happiness
1st
Reading: Jeremiah, chapter 17: 5-8
Scripture teaches that it is
far better to place our trust in God, and experience his joy and happiness,
than to trust in human beings, and reap frustration, loneliness and emptiness.
2nd
Reading: 1st letter of Paul to the Corinthians, chapter 15: 12,
16-20
The Christian faith is based
on the philosophy and evidence of the Resurrection. Christian hope, therefore,
extends into life after death.
Gospel
Reading: Luke, chapter 6: 17, 20-26
The Beatitudes uplift those
who are at the receiving end of the unpleasant things of this life, and reserve
all that is good and joyful to a life in eternity. The Christians’ hope for a
better tomorrow therefore lies in the search for happiness through Christ-like
attitudes.
