Lighting the Lamp

Play
For 19 September 2022, Monday of week 25 in Ordinary Time, based on Luke 8:16-18

Jesus said to the crowd: ‘No one after lighting a lamp hides it under a jar, or puts it under a bed, but puts it on a lampstand, so that those who enter may see the light. For nothing is hidden that will not be disclosed, nor is anything secret that will not become known and come to light. Then pay attention to how you listen; for to those who have, more will be given; and from those who do not have, even what they seem to have will be taken away.’
