WORD 2day: 20th October, 2016

The Spirit, the fire and the division

Thursday, 29th week in Ordinary Time
Eph 3:14-21; Lk 12:49-53

We are children of one Father... the Father from whom we all receive our identity.  The father places a mark and a condition.  The mark is  the Spirit and the condition is the fire... that we live for the Lord in union with each other not in competition with each other.  The division that the gospel speaks of today is standing away from any kind of consideration that militates against the Spirit. It should be marked with the fire within us,  for the Reign of God.
