Thursday of the Twelfth Week in Ordinary Time

Saint Cyril of Alexandria, Bishop, Doctor (370-444)

Readings of the Day
RB: Ch 20 Reverence in Prayer
Mass: Gn 16:1-12, 15-16; Resp Ps 106; Mt 7:21-29


Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good.

Listen to the words of the Lord : Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the Kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven. One way to do the will of our Father in heaven is found a few verses earlier where we find the Golden Rule: Do to others what you would have them do to you (Mt 7:12).


Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed by thy name ...
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. 

EVERYONE WHO LISTENS TO THESE WORDS OF MINE AND ACTS ON THEM WILL BE LIKE A WISE MAN WHO BUILT HIS HOUSE ON ROCK. THE RAIN FELL, THE FLOODS CAME, AND THE WINDS BLEW AND BUFFETED THE HOUSE. BUT IT DID NOT COLLAPSE; IT HAD BEEN SET SOLIDLY ON ROCK. 

Saint Cyril of Alexandria, pray for us.
