Homily (Reflection) for Monday of the
Eighteenth Week in Ordinary Time (I) (07th August,
2017) on the Gospel
Num 11:4-15;
Ps 80:12-17. (R. v.2);Matt 14:13-21.
Topic: Caring for people.

God created humankind, cf. Gen 1:27; 2:7, 21-22. And every human being is made up of body and
soul. And since creation, God cares for the whole person as replete in the
bible. In the gospels especially, Jesus never forgot any part of human being.
He also empowered His ministers to follow suit, cf. Matt 10:5-8; Lk 10:5-9.
Often, many tend to focus their whole attention on the soul and
forget the body. And like the apostles, we always have so many reasons to
support this. Again, others focus their whole attention on the body and forget
the soul. God wants us to care for ourselves entirely without forgetting any
part – body and soul.
Bible Readings: 1Jn 3:11-24.
Thought for today: God loves and cares for both our body and soul.
Let us pray: Lord, help us to care for the whole
person and not for one part or another
– Amen.
