Monday of week 23 in Ordinary Time
First reading – Colossians 1:24-2:3 ·
“The mystery is Christ among you, your hope of glory: this is the Christ we proclaim, this is the wisdom in which we thoroughly train everyone and instruct everyone, to make them all perfect in Christ”. St. Paul is happy to suffer to be a servant of this mystery. The mystery is Christ. Christ is the central point of everything we are and we do. Christ is the wisdom that forms us and transforms us. Christ becomes the power which drives us in every action we do. Christ becomes an inner power within us. This we must feel and recognize in our Christian vocation. Christ becoming an inner power and driving us. When we do this, we cannot resist anymore. We just becoming disciples, we just accept everything. We flow this mystery. St. Paul says that this power is for unity in love. “It is all to bind you together in love”. Christ becomes an inner power in us so that we can be bound together in love. Let’s reflect: Is Christ an inner power within us to bind us together in love?
