Personal Prayer

Dear Jesus, i pray for you and everyone in heaven, i hope that they are just as happy as i am.

I pray that one day we can all get along and be happy together.

I pray for people that are not as kind that they become closer to you and everyone around them.

I pray for people that have less or nothing that they can still be happy even though they don’t have what they need.

Im thankful for what i have and what i will receive in the future.

I thank you for the people in my life, the things that i have, love that i give and receive, and giving me the chance to love and forgive one another.

I thank you for my health, so i can live to be a better person everyday, i thank you for my legs, so i can walk on your beautiful earth, i thank you for my eyes, so i can see the beautiful things in life, and i thank you for letting me be me.

Please bless those in need and bless thoughs that are suffering, that they can be healed by death or medicen.

You are our leader, our savior. our God. You sacrificed your life for us and asked for nothing in return

Amen

Today’s Reading

1, Acts 13:13-25

13 Paul and his companions went by sea from Paphos to Perga in Pamphylia where John left them to go back to Jerusalem.

14 The others carried on from Perga till they reached Antioch in Pisidia. Here they went to synagogue on the Sabbath and took their seats.

15 After the passages from the Law and the Prophets had been read, the presidents of the synagogue sent them a message, ‘Brothers, if you would like to address some words of encouragement to the congregation, please do so.’

16 Paul stood up, raised his hand for silence and began to speak: ‘Men of Israel, and fearers of God, listen!

17 The God of our nation Israel chose our ancestors and made our people great when they were living in Egypt, a land not their own; then by divine power he led them out

18 and for about forty years took care of them in the desert.

19 When he had destroyed seven nations in Canaan, he put them in possession of their land

20 for about four hundred and fifty years. After this he gave them judges, down to the prophet Samuel.

21 Then they demanded a king, and God gave them Saul son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin. After forty years,



22 he deposed him and raised up David to be king, whom he attested in these words, “I have found David son of Jesse, a man after my own heart, who will perform my entire will.”

23 To keep his promise, God has raised up for Israel one of David’s descendants, Jesus, as Saviour,

24 whose coming was heralded by John when he proclaimed a baptism of repentance for the whole people of Israel.

25 Before John ended his course he said, “I am not the one you imagine me to be; there is someone coming after me whose sandal I am not fit to undo.”

Responsorial Psalm, Psalms 89:2-3, 21-22, 25, 27

2 for you have said: love is built to last for ever, you have fixed your constancy firm in the heavens.

3 ‘I have made a covenant with my Chosen One, sworn an oath to my servant David:

21 My hand will always be with him, my arm will make him strong.

22 ‘No enemy will be able to outwit him, no wicked man overcome him;

25 I shall establish his power over the sea, his dominion over the rivers.

27 So I shall make him my first-born, the highest of earthly kings.

Gospel, John 13:16-20

16 ‘In all truth I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, no messenger is greater than the one who sent him.

17 ‘Now that you know this, blessed are you if you behave accordingly.

18 I am not speaking about all of you: I know the ones I have chosen; but what scripture says must be fulfilled: ‘He who shares my table takes advantage of me.

19 I tell you this now, before it happens, so that when it does happen you may believe that I am He.

20 In all truth I tell you, whoever welcomes the one I send, welcomes me, and whoever welcomes me, welcomes the one who sent me.’
