WORD: THE PRINCIPLE OF CHRISTIAN LIFE

11th October, 2015: 28th Sunday in Ordinary Time
Wis 7: 7-11; Heb 4: 12-13; Mk 10: 17-30

The Word this Sunday is on the Word.

The Word in the foundational principle of our Christian life. It is the Word that makes all the difference for the choices we make. It offers us all the wisdom we stand in need of to live a life that is meaningful.

The Word is also our Judge,  practically because the Word gives us the criteria to live by. When those criteria are met we are affirmed;  when not,  the Word holds us on a tribunal.

The Word is the treasure that gives meaning to our Christian life. It is worth giving our life in the service of the Word. At the service of the Word whatever we give up comes back manifold.
