Saint Pius X, Pope
Monday of week 20 in Ordinary Time
First reading – Judges 2:11-19
In this reading we see the human nature. Again and again man goes away from God after when God had rescued them. When there are troubles in life, people turn to God. God rescues them. Once the troubles are over, we walk in our own ways and forget the way of the Lord. When we forget the Lord and walk in our owns, we welcome again troubles into our life. In the midst of troubles, we call again God for help. He patiently saves us from our troubles and allows us to keep our freedom. With our freedom we try again to walk in our own ways. We must break this circle by trying to walk in the ways of the Lord even when we are not in troubles. Let’s reflect: Am I falling into cycles of being close and being far from God?
