The Catholic Calendar for Saturday, June 12, 2004
Saturday of the Tenth Week in Ordinary Time

Scripture from today’s Liturgy of the Word:
1 Kings 19:19-21
Psalm 16:1-2,5,7-10
Matthew 5:33-37

A reflection on today’s Sacred Scripture:

“Ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning...”

Elijah’s call as prophet is our call also. It is a call to obedience, it is a call to courage. It is a call to reliance on God and alliance to God’s Holy will.

When we place all of our trust in God, we are trusting He who created the universe. Surely, He can feed us.

Let the Holy Spirit lead you. Listen to the words of the Lord, and be humble. Ask God the way, and it will be shown. Ask God how you can help, and you too will be fed by ravens, and even stranger creatures.

Praise God, for He gives his creation power to serve Him.
