Monday of week 1 in Ordinary Time
Gospel – Mark 1:14-20
In the Gospel of today we can see two times the expression, “at once” or “immediately”. Simon and Andrew, at once, leaving their nets and following Jesus. And then, when Jesus saw James and John, He, at once, called them. This welcomes us to think about the way, the Word of God acts in our life. This is the way of interacting with God and this is the way God interacts with us. We must live the grace of the moment. We must not postpone an opportunity to love. When we have an opportunity to love, do it immediately because it’s the grace of the moment. That’s the way Jesus wants to express His love for us. Let’s reflect: Each opportunity to love is the call of Jesus to follow Him.
