Gospel:
Matthew 11:25-27
At that
time Jesus exclaimed: “I give praise to you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth,
for although you have hidden these things from the wise and the learned you
have revealed them to the childlike. Yes, Father, such has been your gracious
will. All things have been handed over to me by my Father. No one knows the Son
except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to
whom the Son wishes to reveal him.”

Reflection:
A man was
very serious in his desire to know God, so what he did was he devoured every
book that deals about God. But he was wondering how come that the more that he
read books about God the more that God becomes alien to him.
So he
seek the advice of a wise man for enlightenment thus he was told by the wise
man, your dilemma is simple. You need to become more humble as you read more
about God. You should put into your heart and not into your head whatever
learning that you obtain from your readings.
Do you
want to discover more about the movement of God in your life? The secret word is
humility: childlike humility; this is for the reason that the more childlike
you become in front of God the more that you open yourself to His many graces.
What is
the demeanor of Jesus when He prays to God? Jesus is always humble before God,
He doesn’t brag or boast anything about the achievement of His mission. So, we too should always be humble for this is the secret for us
to know more about God. - Marino J.
