First reading Ephesians 2:19-22

In Christ you are no longer aliens, but citizens like us

You are no longer aliens or foreign visitors: you are citizens like all the saints, and part of God’s household. You are part of a building that has the apostles and prophets for its foundations, and Christ Jesus himself for its main cornerstone. As every structure is aligned on him, all grow into one holy temple in the Lord; and you too, in him, are being built into a house where God lives, in the Spirit.
 
 

Responsorial Psalm 18(19):2-5

Their word goes forth through all the earth.
 
The heavens proclaim the glory of God,
  and the firmament shows forth the work of his hands.
Day unto day takes up the story
  and night unto night makes known the message.
 
No speech, no word, no voice is heard
  yet their span extends through all the earth,
  their words to the utmost bounds of the world.
 
 

Gospel Luke 6:12-19

Jesus chooses his twelve apostles

Jesus went out into the hills to pray; and he spent the whole night in prayer to God. When day came he summoned his disciples and picked out twelve of them; he called them ‘apostles’: Simon whom he called Peter, and his brother Andrew; James, John, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James son of Alphaeus, Simon called the Zealot, Judas son of James, and Judas Iscariot who became a traitor.
  He then came down with them and stopped at a piece of level ground where there was a large gathering of his disciples with a great crowd of people from all parts of Judaea and from Jerusalem and from the coastal region of Tyre and Sidon who had come to hear him and to be cured of their diseases. People tormented by unclean spirits were also cured, and everyone in the crowd was trying to touch him because power came out of him that cured them all.
 
 
________________________________
 

Jesus’ call and our “Yes” to Him

Jesus chose twelve ordinary people with their own strengths and limitations to be His closest companions.

Today, let us rejoice that Jesus never ceases to call each one of us, imperfect as we are, to be His disciples, His friends. Each day, we need to respond to His call. With the call comes the mission. Jesus entrusts us to go out and share the Good News that God is love, He cares, and He is with us to the people around us. Let us continue to give ourselves to Jesus and allow Him to use our ordinary lives for His extraordinary mission.

Reflective question:
Am I open to collaborating with Jesus in the mission to share His love
with those around me?
