Called to Greatness
From Today's Readings:

Feast of Saint Matthew, Apostle and Evangelist

Alleluia 

R. Alleluia, alleluia.
We praise you, O God,
we acclaim you as Lord;
the glorious company of Apostles praise you.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.

"No one is truly worthy to be called by Christ.  However, there is a saying, “God does not call the equipped, but He equips the called.”  As we see with Matthew, God often calls those who are least likely to be called according to worldly standards. Jesus did not come for the perfect; He came for the sick. The Church is a field hospital for the sick. We would not need a savior or a Church if we were all perfect and could save ourselves. God wants to meet you where you are, love you, and then call you to greatness."

~ Father Burke Masters, The Baseball Priest


 

Thanks for Reading.
 

Make it a great week. See you back here again next Monday.

 

Frank J Casella, CMCS Executive Director
