28th Week, Ordinary Time, Saturday, 16-10-2021

Romans 4:13, 16-18 / Luke 12:9-12    

It is not easy to make a measurement or an assessment about faith.

There can be faith or no faith; faith can be weak or strong; faith can be simple or mystical.

Whatever the opinion is, we can be sure that faith is not static but dynamic.

Whatever the faith is, one thing that can be quite certain is that faith will be put to the test.

When faith is put to the test, then it can be seen that faith is not a concept or an idea or even a belief.

When faith is put to the test, it is expressed in a conviction and a commitment to a relationship.

And this relationship is none other than that with Jesus who is Lord and Saviour.

So when we declare Jesus is our Lord and Saviour, then Jesus Himself said that He will declare Himself for us in the presence of God's angels.

And that is the greatest blessing that we can have, and that is when Jesus calls us His good and faithful servants.

May we hold on firm to our faith in Jesus, may we openly declare that He is our Lord and Saviour and He will grant us abundant blessings
