For 9 July 2023, Fourteenth Sunday of Ordinary Time, based on Matthew 11:25–30
At that time Jesus said, ‘I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and the intelligent and have revealed them to infants; yes, Father, for such was your gracious will. All things have been handed over to me by my Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.
‘Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.’

Grateful for the inexhaustible love of Jesus and the Father and the bond of love given to them by the Holy Spirit and how we receive this LOVE every day of our lives by others. May we all be more present and aware of this LOVE GIVEN FREELY!
