For 28 May 2024, Tuesday of week 8 in Ordinary Time, based on Mark 10:28-31
Peter began to say to Jesus, ‘Look, we have left everything and followed you.’ Jesus said, ‘Truly I tell you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields, for my sake and for the sake of the good news, who will not receive a hundredfold now in this age—houses, brothers and sisters, mothers and children, and fields, with persecutions—and in the age to come eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and the last will be first.’

Thank you, Kathleen, for your inspiring reminder when we receive the gift to follow, Jesus, we are also given the grace to let go and give all. The gift given and the gift received is never out done by God’s generosity to us.
Blessings on your continued preaching of the Good News of Jesus,

I keep coming back to your preaching to be reminded that the giving up, or letting go of anything, is a daily invitation to follow the One who invites us to life.
