Friday of week 28 in Ordinary Time
Saint Callistus, Pope, Martyr
Gospel – Luke 12:1-7
“Why, every hair on your head has been counted. There is no need to be afraid: you are worth more than hundreds of sparrows”. Are we conscious about this great mystery of ourselves? There is nothing casual in ourselves. Everything belongs to the design and plan of God. Everything in me is precious to God. The love of God embraces every aspect of my being. We have fears, anxieties, and worries. Because we forget this truth of ourselves. This truth is essential to understand the mystery of incarnation also. Because incarnation is the realization of this true love of God. This truth is essential also to understand the truth of the other person who is beside me. That person is also loved in the same way by God who loves me. So, I must treat that person also with love as God also knows every hair on his or her head. Therefore, the Gospel puts before us the question: Am I aware about the truth of God’s love in me and in others?
