3 John 5-8 / Luke 18:1-8
To believe in God is to put our trust in Him.
We trust that God will always provide for our needs.
God created us and He will sustain us and provide for us.
In the 1st reading, the early missionaries went about proclaiming Jesus and the Good News of salvation.
The 1st reading reminds the Christian community that it is their duty to welcome these missionaries and contribute to their work for the truth.
It is only right and just in doing so.
And in the gospel, Jesus told a parable that God will provide especially when it is right and just.
God will see justice done to His chosen ones who cry out to Him.
And Jesus promises that God will see justice done and done speedily.
We turn to God and put our trust in His providence.
We also turn to God when injustice or some wrong is done to us.
Justice belongs to God. We only need to put our trust in God who will do what is right and just.
