Welcome! This blog contains brief reflections of mine on the Scripture readings for each weekend Mass and other Holy Days, too. These readings follow those used by the Roman Catholic Church in the Revised Common Lectionary, which goes in a three-year cycle. These posts typically appear within a day or two of the specified Mass.

January 15, 2016: 2nd Sunday in Ordinary Time
John the Baptist pointed to Jesus as the Lamb of God Who takes away the sin of the world. Jesus, Who existed before all Creation, was the One endowed with might and power to save us by the Spirit of God. Now saved, we are called to be holy and sanctified before Him. And God has named us, His children, to be His servants to accomplish His purposes. He has especially graced us that we delight in doing His Will, that all people should grow in relationship with God.

So I just realized that I put the wrong year in the title of this post. It should be 2017, as the date stamp above it reads. I guess I was enjoying Florida too much that day to focus enough on that detail.
