20170712 Gospel Mt 10:1-7

Jesus summoned his Twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits to drive them out and to cure every disease and every illness. The names of the Twelve Apostles are these: first, Simon called Peter, and his brother Andrew; James, the son of Zebedee, and his brother John; Philip and Bartholomew, Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James, the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddeus; Simon the Cananean, and Judas Iscariot who betrayed Jesus.

Jesus sent out these Twelve after instructing them thus, "Do not go into pagan territory or enter a Samaritan town. Go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. As you go, make this proclamation: 'The Kingdom of heaven is at hand.'"

Reflection:

Kon ato gajud sutaon pagdajaw sanan eksaminon an mga ersonlidad nan pinili ni Jesus na Ija Twelve Apostles, Makita nato na mga ordinary ra gajud sila na mga tawo: mga mangingisda sanan mangolektahay nan buhis.

Pero uno man kaha’y rason na sila ma’y tagpili ni Jesus na Ija taga-proklama nan Kingdom of heaven?

Kaputlian nan kasing-kasing – ini amo’y hingkit’an ni Jesus dila para sila pilion Nija na Ija mga aposles kay nahibayo na man daan Sija na sa ila pagka-ordinaryo, segurado na maka-himo sila nan extra-ordinary deeds para sa Kingdom of heaven.
