Friday of week 21 in Ordinary Time
First reading – 1 Thessalonians 4:1-8
“What God wants is for you all to be holy”. This holiness is what we achieve by dedicating ourselves to the live a life that is worthy of our call. We have our body that belongs to God. We must use that body in a way that is holy and honorable, not giving way to selfishness. The moment we have selfish interests in our relationships, we are moving away from being holy. With our selfish interests, we take advantage of our brother or sister. We use others. This is what makes us unholy. Using others for our selfishness. We must avoid this and grow in holiness by overcoming selfishness. Let’s reflect: Am I using others for my selfishness?
