The Lord
Jesus appointed seventy-two disciples whom he sent ahead of him in pairs to
every town and place he intended to visit. He said to them, "The harvest
is abundant but the laborers are few; so ask the master of the harvest to send
out laborers for his harvest. Go on your way; behold, I am sending you like
lambs among wolves. Carry no money bag, no sack, no sandals; and greet no one
along the way. Into whatever house you enter, first say, 'Peace to this household.'
If a peaceful person lives there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it
will return to you. Stay in the same house and eat and drink what is offered to
you, for the laborer deserves payment. Do not move about from one house to
another. Whatever town you enter and they welcome you, eat what is set before
you, cure the sick in it and say to them, 'The Kingdom of God is at hand for
you.'"
Reflection:
Kon duro
an anihunon, duro ‘sab an kinahanglan na mag-a-ani para mapadali sanan maapura
o maikyat an pag-ani.
Malangan
an pag-ani nan anihunon kon gamay ra an mangangani.
Amo ra ‘sab
ini sa mga buluhaton nan simbahan sa pag-sangyaw nan mga pulong ni Jesus na,
tungod kay duro pa an waya makadungog sanan makakilaya kan Christ, kinahanglan ‘sab
nan duro na taga-sangyaw nan Marajaw na Balita.
Mahitungod
sa pag-pili ni Jesus na setenta’y siyete pa ka disciple na Ija inpadaya na
pares-pares – para sila magsuportahan sanan may maka-testigos sa kamatuoran nan
ila mga testimonya.
Kita ‘sab,
isip mga Kristiyanos, andam ba kita na motungod sa ato trabaho na mag-sangyaw
nan Marajaw na Balita sa ato mga isigkatawo na waya pa makadungog sanan
makakilaya kan Christ?
