Eighteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
The pity of Jesus Christ is the cause of a life-transforming abundance. Christ is not scandalized by human need and want. Rather, the Lord regards every experience of human lack as a prime opportunity to manifest God’s lavishness. From our earliest days, God has beckoned us: “Come, all who are thirsty! Come, you who have no money!” Our sickness, our exhaustion, our insufficiency—Jesus tells us, “Bring them here to me.” Then, what was formerly a “deserted place” becomes a place of satisfaction. Trial, distress, hunger, and danger do not separate us from the love of Christ. Rather, they draw him close to us with a love that conquerors all.
INTENTIONS
Pope Leo XIV has urged Catholics across the globe to join him this July in praying for respect for human life.
He released the monthly “Pray with the Pope” video on Thursday, which is prepared by the Pope’s Worldwide Prayer Network.
In his prayer, the Pope recognized that the Lord has created each of us in love and called us to live in fullness.
"Each person is a sacred gift that reflects your face," he said, "from the first instant of existence to the final breath of their journey on earth."
"Today," he continued, "we ask for the grace to recognise and protect the unique and unrepeatable value of every human being."
