Gospel: Matthew
10:7-15
Jesus
said to his Apostles: “As you go, make this proclamation: ‘The Kingdom of
heaven is at hand.’ Cure the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, drive
out demons. Without cost you have received; without cost you are to give. Do
not take gold or silver or copper for your belts; no sack
for the journey, or a second tunic, or sandals, or walking stick. The laborer
deserves his keep. Whatever town or village you enter, look for a worthy person
in it, and stay there until you leave. As you enter a house, wish it peace. If
the house is worthy, let your peace come upon it; if not, let your peace return
to you. Whoever will not receive you or listen to your words go outside that
house or town and shake the dust from your feet. Amen, I say to you, it will be
more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than
for that town.”

Reflection:
Have you
already shared Jesus using the internet?
Lady A,
is an internet fanatic she would always share anything about herself on
facebook. Simply to create an impression about how good her life is.
Some of
us are actually like Lady A, we are fond of sharing our every activity even non- essential activities via the internet most especially on facebook. But have we
shared Jesus or anything that relate to Jesus using the internet?
We have
in the gospel the commissioning or sending off of the apostles. They were told
by Jesus to share the good news of our salvation. They did their mission by
advancing the teachings of Jesus and the many miracles that He did.
The
apostles did not share anything about themselves it was always about Jesus and
never about themselves. For a change why not think of sharing Jesus instead of
sharing yourself using internet? If you
share Jesus you will change and bless lives and in the process you would also become a blessing for others.
What do
you usually share in the internet specifically on your facebook account is it always about yourself? –
