Theme: Racing to grasp the prize
1st Reading: Isaiah, chapter 43: 16-21
This scripture admonishes us not to dwell on the
past, even if we saw God’s hand at work in our lives. The same mighty God is
doing something totally new in our lives. Our duty is to remain optimistic.
2nd Reading: Letter of Paul to the Philippians, chapter 3: 8-14
St Paul summarises his personal convictions in the
statement that all he had achieved so far was nothing, compared to the reward
that awaits him. Paul’s values should spur us on towards our heavenly goal.
Gospel
Reading: John, chapter 8: 1-11
Jesus offers an opportunity to the Pharisees and
all of us, to mend our ways. His words to the woman: “Go, and sin no more”,
should forever ring in our hearts, and remain etched in our minds.
