Today’s readings are for those of us who
worry too much. It may seem that our
culture and our time in history have a role
in creating our chattering minds and
endless anxiety. News of threat and
danger confront us that worry is a
constant in life. There are lots of
techniques to help us, but Jesus tells us
to stay focused on the reign of God and
let tomorrow take care of itself. Like all
solutions and techniques, it will only
work if we do it.
“You cannot serve God and mammon.”
---Matthew 6:24 First Reading from Isaiah 49:14-15 “I will never forget you.”
Second Reading from 1 Corinthians 4:1-5 Only God can judge us.
Gospel from Matthew 6:24-34 “Do not worry about tomorrow.
