THE WORD AND THE SAINTS

From and To - Being apostles


Celebrating Timothy and Titus -26th Jan 2017
2 Tim 1:1-8 (or) Tit 1: 1-5; Mk 4: 21-25


Apart from a regular first reading today we have an alternative reading... when out of curiosity I went through both the readings, I found one thing in common between the two passages. From Paul to Timothy and From Paul to Titus. From and To... I tend to feel that's the message for today. Being apostles is to give from ourselves to others. From us to them... passing  on - it's  such an essential part of being apostles!

The Gospel reminds us of the same task in other words; that we pass the light on, that we give! Let us burn, and pass on the light. Let us give without measure, and be blessed without measure! Being apostles is to be burning lights and endless givers. We are all apostles, let us never forget that. 

This is from me to you... a loving and mutual reminder about being apostles!
