Theme: Growth into the image of the heavenly Father
1st
Reading: 1 Samuel, chapter 26: 2, 7-9, 12-13, 22-23
David had what might be called
a golden opportunity to kill King Saul. The maturity that he displayed when he
spared the king’s life can only be explained as maturity that is deeply rooted
in his reverence for all that is divine.
2nd
Reading: 1st letter of Paul to the Corinthians, chapter 15: 45- 49
The comparison between Adam,
the human being, and Jesus, the divine being, provides pointers as to whose
likeness we should grow into, if we profess to be followers of Christ.
Gospel
Reading: Luke, chapter 6: 27-38
The words of this scripture
outline specific courses of action for all who aspire to grow in the Lord.
These words are a source of motivation in our search for Christian growth and
maturity.
