Monday of week 12 in Ordinary Time
First reading – Genesis 12:1-9
The journey of Abram is a journey of faith. He listens to God. He acts according to what God tells him. And he maintains a relationship with God. After listening to God, he acts according to the will of God. He leaves his land and moves to the land where God indicated. Moreover, he maintains his relationship with God by building altar for the Lord constantly and invoking His name. These three elements are very important. Listening to God, acting accordingly, and maintaining a constant relationship with God. He lives in relationship with God. This is why, He is a model for us to follow. Listen to God, does God wants and lives in relationship with God. Let’s reflect: Am I following the example of Abram by listening, acting and living with God?
