B. SCRIPTURAL READING
(Jn. 17:1-8)
When Jesus had said this, He raised His eyes to heaven and said, “Father, the hour has come. Give glory to Your Son, so that Your Son may glorify You. Just as You gave Him authority over all people, so that He may give eternal life to all You gave Him. Now this is eternal life, that they should know you, the only true God, and the one whom You sent, Jesus Christ. I glorified you on earth but accomplishing the work that You gave Me to do. Now glorify Me, Father, with You, with the glory that I had with You before the world began.
“I revealed Your name to those whom You gave Me out of the world. They belonged to You, and You gave them to me, and they have kept Your word. Now they know that everything You gave Me is from You, because the words You gave to Me I have given to them, and they accepted them and truly understood that I came from You, and they have believed that You sent Me.”
C. MEDITATION
“So do not start worrying: Where will my food come from? Or my drink? Or my clothes? These are the things the pagans are always concerned about. Your Father in heaven knows that you need all these things. Instead be concerned about everything else with the Kingdom of God and with what He required of you and He will provide You with all those other things. So do not worry about tomorrow; it will have enough worries of its own. There is no need to add to the trouble each day brings.” (Mt. 6, 31-34)
D. PRAYER
We praise and thank You, Father for Your unfailing gift of Divine Providence. You feed the birds of the air and clothe the lilies of the field. But You provide more generously for Your sons and daughters who obey and follow You will.
Bless the poor and the needy not only with spiritual gifts but also food to sustain body and soul and other earthly needs.
We ask all these through Your beloved Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, who reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
