January 31, 2016: 4th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Throughout the ages, God has called people to be prophets, who proclaim His message of Truth and salvation.

A prophet often faces hardship because of that message, as happened to Jesus when His hometown folk couldn't bear to face the reality of who He was.

But God has specially acknowledged us before birth, and has chosen us for this role.  So in spite of whatever obstacles we encounter, He is there to strengthen us for the task He gives us.

We are indeed strengthened to proclaim this message in the spirit of Love that God exhibits perfectly, a love that is above all, and is everlasting, because God is love, and shows us love in coming to save us.  It is this Love that fortifies and strengthens us against all opposition to proclaim His prophetic message.
