Gospel of Matthew Ch 12 v- 46 thru 50

46 While he was still speaking to the crowds, his mother and his brothers appeared outside, wishing to speak with him. 47 [Someone told him, “Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, asking to speak with you.”] 48 But he said in reply to the one who told him, “Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?” 49 And stretching out his hand toward his disciples, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers. 50 For whoever does the will of my heavenly Father is my brother, and sister, and mother.”

 

 

Our Catholic faith has long declared that when the Gospels described Jesus’ siblings, or the apostle Paul mentioned the “brothers of the Lord,” the words that are translated from the Greek actually meant “cousins” or “relatives.” If we look at the New Testament very carefully, we will discover that Mary kept her vow of virginity and never had any children other than Jesus. It all comes down to the translation of the Greek language. When we focus on the truth, we see Jesus explaining that the most important aspect of being His disciple is that we surrender to His Father’s Will. For “whoever does the will of my heavenly Father is my brother, and sister, and mother.” Nothing else matters but seeking to live the Will of God. Amen. Once we begin this aspect of placing God First in everything we do, we find the Will of God is directing us to share the Redemption of sins seeking only the joy of Salvation in giving when we can everything we have to further His Kingdom; Feed the hungry. Clothe the naked. Drink to the thirsty. Visit the imprisoned. Share conversation with the lonely. Offer love, faith and hope of His grace where all who profess Jesus as Lord and Savior will enjoy Life Eternal ensured.  Amen.

 

Join me as we pray our daily prayer of forgiveness. I am sorry Lord. I believe You died and rose for me. Please forgive me as I forgive others. I share You as my Lord and Savior seeking to live your Will in all things. Prayers for wife Toni and my mother Betty pray for our children especially our two oldest Alexandra & Allen; Julian, Gabriel and Jeffrey and our grandchildren Oliver, Julian and Elliott. We pray for Boston aka Keith. We pray for those we’ve said we’d pray for and those who’ve asked us to pray for them. We pray for the dying as we do each day Lord give them peace in their last breath. Silence for the prayers of others dealing with the war in Ukraine. In the Holy Spirit we pray our brothers in Kairos especially a prayer for our men in blue. We pray for Holy Mother Church. We pray for our Holy Mother in the name of Louie. Daily prayers for our neighbor Thelma. Prayers for a friend and his wife for a baby to be born. In Jesus Precious Blood by His Name we pray. Amen.

**Jesus mother and brothers are who**

 

Jesus crowd speaking still

Outside appeared brothers and mother his

Bystander announced you speak to their fill

Replying Jesus mother and brothers are who

 

Mother is who

Brothers are who

All disciples renew

Father’s will do
