November 8th 32nd Sunday in ordinary time
Oh! Christ, sometimes we get so busy in life that we forget to pray unless there is an emergency.
Please Lord, give us the grace to set aside a time everday to go to our prayer room and give You praise
and glory.
Let us be intercessors for others, and realize all the good we could do for them, through You, by our
prayers.
Let us see that all people are our brothers and sisters, and that we have an obligation to pray for them.
Let us also pray the news so that those who do harm to others will be saved through our intercessions
and Your love.
Thank You, Jesus, for making us part of Your glorious plan.
Amen and Amen.
Thank You Lord, for loving us totally.

This weeks readings and reflections
Sunday MARANATHA
https://www.presentationministries.com/series/obob/obob-2020-11-8-en
"The Lord Himself will come down from heaven at the word of command, at the sound of the archangel's voice
and God's trumpet." -1 Thessalonians 4:16
Jesus is coming soon. No one knows the day or the hour (Mt 25:13). In that case, the only practical thing
is to be always ready and keep our eyes open (Mt 25:13). When Jesus comes again for the final time, "those
who have died in Christ will rise first" (1 Thes 4:16). If you live near a cemetery, that will be a sight
to behold! "Then we, the living, the survivors, will be caught up with them in the clouds to meet the Lord
in the air. Thenceforth we shall be with the Lord unceasingly" (1 Thes 4:17). Even though this awesome
event is in the future, right now we can "console one another with this message" (1 Thes 4:18).
For those mourning, the Good News of Jesus' coming and our bodies' resurrection will keep them from
yielding "to grief, like those who have no hope" (1 Thes 4:13). Knowing He is coming will keep us working
for His kingdom, dispensing the ration of grain in due time (Lk 12:42). Because of Jesus' "appearing and
His kingly power," we will stay with the "task whether convenient or inconvenient" (2 Tm 4:1-2). We will
"not absent ourselves from the assembly, as some do, but encourage one another; and this all the more
because you see that the Day draws near" (Heb 10:25). Jesus' future coming transforms the present by
motivating us to love Him and live for Him to the full.
Prayer: Jesus, may I hasten the day of Your coming by repentance, intercession, and evangelization (2 Pt 3:12).
Promise: "Resplendent and unfailing is Wisdom, and she is readily perceived by those who love her." -Wis 6:12
Praise: "For a sun and a shield is the Lord God; grace and glory He bestows; The Lord withholds no good
thing from those who walk in sincerity" (Ps 84:12). Praise the risen Jesus!
Monday A SURE FOUNDATION

"Everyone, however, must be careful how he builds." -1 Corinthians 3:10
Tuesday PASTOR-IZED
https://www.presentationministries.com/series/obob/obob-2020-11-10-en
"The grace of God has appeared, offering salvation to all men. It trains us to reject godless ways and
worldly desires, and live temperately, justly, and devoutly in this age." -Titus 2:11-12
