PM eNewsletter 25th Sunday in ordinary time

Sept 20th Twenty fifth Sunday in ordinary time


We call this season of the year, ordinary time, yet in You nothing is ordinary.

Just to know You in the Eucharist, and see You in the breaking of the bread, should be for us a cause
of great joy.

The fact that You are always with us in all the tabernacles of the world, ready to listen and help us,
should give us a tremendous sense of peace.

We know that You are truly there, just waiting for us to visit, and give You praise and glorify, thank
You, the Christ.


Amen and Amen.

Thank You Lord, for loving us totally.

This weeks readings and reflections


Sunday SISTER DEATH
https://www.presentationministries.com/series/obob/obob-2020-9-20-en

"I long to be freed from this life and to be with Christ, for that is the far better thing." -Philippians 1:23

St. Paul faced "death every day" (1 Cor 15:31). He was on "death row" on more than one occasion. Paul
faced death and smiled at it. He even taunted death when he proclaimed: "O death, where is your victory?
O death, where is your sting?" (1 Cor 15:55) Paul said: "Dying is so much gain" (Phil 1:21). He said that
he felt as strongly attracted to dying as living (Phil 1:23), although he considered dying in Christ "the
far better thing" (Phil 1:23).

Paul was freed from slavery to the fear of death (see Heb 2:15) because to him, life meant Christ
(Phil 1:21). When we totally give our lives to Christ, we believe that Jesus is the Resurrection and the
Life (Jn 11:25), Who has put death to death by His death on the cross (see Heb 2:14). When we give our
lives to Jesus, we give our deaths to Jesus, Who holds "the keys of death and the nether world" (Rv 1:18).
In Christ, there is no condemnation (Rm 8:1). In Christ, slavery to the fear of death is swallowed up in
victory (1 Cor 15:54).

On this and every Sunday, we celebrate Jesus' Resurrection from the dead. Today, give all to Jesus, smile
in the face of death, and live life freely and to the full (see Jn 10:10).

Prayer: Father, give me a happy death as soon as possible.

Promise: "Seek the Lord while He may be found, call Him while He is near." -Is 55:6

Praise: "I am the Resurrection and the Life: whoever believes in Me, though he should die, will come to
life; and whoever is alive and believes in Me will never die. Do you believe this?" (Jn 11:25-26)

GRAIN ELEVATOR - One Bread, One Body, 09/19/2020

Saturday, September 19, 2020, St. Januarius

1 Corinthians 15:35-37, 42-49
Psalm 56:10-14
Luke 8:4-15
View Readings

GRAIN ELEVATOR
"Some fell on good soil, grew up, and yielded grain a hundredfold." —Luke 8:8

A typical harvest of grain in the time of Jesus would be a sevenfold to eightfold yield. A hundredfold yield of grain could not possibly be attributed to the skill of the farmer or the fertility of the land. Jesus’ hearers would have understood that only the sheer grace of God could produce a hundredfold harvest.
Our approach to our daily reading of Scripture can resemble that of the Israelites who gathered the manna that God provided for decades in the desert (Ex 16:14ff). Many Israelites surely gathered it routinely year after year, seeing the miraculous food appear without perceiving; hearing others around them in the desert picking up their daily miracle from heaven without understanding (Lk 8:10). A normal routine of Scripture reading may not produce a hundredfold harvest, but rather the typical sevenfold or eightfold harvest that the Word of God automatically produces “of itself” (see Mk 4:28). If, by our own efforts, we are truly open to the Holy Spirit in our daily Scripture reading (Lk 8:15), perhaps we can increase the harvest to thirty or sixtyfold (Mt 13:8).
We at Presentation Ministries write One Bread, One Body to encourage you to read the daily Eucharistic readings before Mass. We encourage you to attend Mass daily, if possible, for at Holy Mass we are in the environment of miracles. Day by day, in the Eucharistic presence of Jesus, let’s expectantly ask Him to open our ears (Is 50:4). God will transform us and we will see an astounding, miraculous, hundredfold or greater harvest.

Prayer: Father, I tremble at Your Word (Is 66:2).

Promise: "To you the mysteries of the reign of God have been confided." —Lk 8:10

Praise: St. Januarius was martyred during Emperor Diocletian's persecution. His relics are preserved in Naples, Italy. Vials of his blood still regularly liquefy, defying natural explanation.

JESUS IS RISEN! ALLELUIA FOREVER! - One Bread, One Body,09/18/2020

Friday, September 18, 2020,

1 Corinthians 15:12-20
Psalm 17:1, 6-8, 15
Luke 8:1-3

JESUS IS RISEN! ALLELUIA FOREVER!
"If Christ was not raised, your faith is worthless." —1 Corinthians 15:17

Jesus is raised from the dead, and He has promised to also raise from the dead those who live for Him. This is the major revelation of the Christian faith. If Jesus is risen, then He is God. If He is God, then all His revelations, claims, and promises must be true. If Jesus has not risen, then He is not God, and Christianity must be a sham. We are therefore not forgiven our sins (see 1 Cor 15:17). We are not born again. We are not children of God. We are not free, pure, or holy. “Those who have fallen asleep in Christ are the deadest of the dead” (1 Cor 15:18). If Christ is not risen, “we are the most pitiable of men” (1 Cor 15:19), life is meaningless, there is no hope for us, and we are doomed.
“But, as it is, Christ is now raised from the dead, the First Fruits of those who have fallen asleep” (1 Cor 15:20). In the splendor of the risen Christ’s divine glory, we live a radically new life, as children of God, partakers in the divine nature (2 Pt 1:4), and as the Lord’s royal, priestly, and holy family (1 Pt  2:9). We are saved, redeemed, chosen, and called to be holy as the Lord is holy (see 1 Pt 1:15-16). We live in final victory, while we wait with Jesus for His enemies to be put beneath His feet (see Heb 10:12-13). Although we still take up our crosses each day (Lk 9:23) and share in the sufferings of Christ (Phil 3:10), we live the love, joy, and freedom of Christ’s risen life on earth and we look forward to living the perfection of that life face-to-face with Jesus in heaven.
With ever stronger faith, live the risen life to the full.

Prayer: Father, strengthen my faith in Jesus' Resurrection and show me ways that this faith is being subtly undermined.

Promise: "The Twelve accompanied Him, and also some women who had been cured of evil spirits and maladies." —Lk 8:1-2

Praise: Working around her spouse's difficult schedule, Anna prayed that God work out a feasible Mass time for her. Since that prayer, she has been a daily communicant.

NO TIME LIKE THE PRESENT - One Bread, One Body, 09/17/2020

Thursday, September 17, 2020, St. Robert Bellarmine

1 Corinthians 15:1-11
Psalm 118:1-2, 16-17, 28
Luke 7:36-50
View Readings

NO TIME LIKE THE PRESENT
"You are being saved by it at this very moment if you hold fast to it as I preached it to you." —1 Corinthians 15:2

We pray God will do something for us, or thank Him for what He has done. We live in the past and in the future. However, the Lord wants us to be aware of Him at this very moment. “Now is the day of salvation!” (2 Cor 6:2) Now is the time to abandon our lives “to Him Whose power now at work in us can do immeasurably more than we ask or imagine” (Eph 3:20).
When we pray for healing, do we expect an immediate response from God? Almost all Jesus’ healings in the Bible happened immediately. Has God changed His timing? Or are we not believing and so not receiving? The Lord promises: “Before they call, I will answer; while they are yet speaking, I will hearken to them” (Is 65:24). We think God is slow and we talk about waiting on the Lord, but He’s waiting on us. Jesus said to the two disciples: “How slow you are to believe!” (Lk 24:25) “Will [God] delay long over them, do you suppose? I tell you, He will give them swift justice. But when the Son of Man comes, will He find any faith on the earth?” (Lk 18:7-8)
The place is here, the person is you, and the time is now. Jesus said: “Your faith has been your salvation. Now go in peace” (Lk 7:50).

Prayer: Jesus, may I be living in and loving You now.

Promise: "You gave Me no kiss, but she has not ceased kissing My feet since I entered." —Lk 7:45

Praise: St. Robert was born in Tuscany but, after joining the Jesuits, was sent to Belgium. This was providential, as it exposed him to Protestantism. He is credited with developing the theological basis for the Catholic Reformation.

LOVE IS A FOUR-LETTER WORD - One Bread, One Body, 09/16/2020

Wednesday, September 16, 2020, Pope St. Cornelius & St. Cyprian

1 Corinthians 12:31—13:13
Psalm 33:2-5, 12, 22
Luke 7:31-35
View Readings

LOVE IS A FOUR-LETTER WORD
"Love is patient; love is kind." —1 Corinthians 13:4

God is love (1 Jn 4:16). Without love, we gain nothing (1 Cor 13:3). They’ll know we are Christians by our love (Jn 13:35). Love is the essence of the Christian life. Love is an action more than a quality or condition. One translation of 1 Corinthians 13 is: “Love does patient things. Love does the kind thing,” etc. Love is not modified by an adjective but expressed by a verb. Furthermore, love does three things and does not do eight things. First, love does patient and kind things. A more exact translation would be: “Love suffers for a long time and removes others’ burdens.”
Love here is not so much feeling good but suffering. It is not self-centered but other-centered. The theme of selflessness is further expressed in the eight things that love does not do (1 Cor 13:4-6).  The climax of the passage is: “Love rejoices in the truth.” Love is not here related to feelings or sex but to joy and truth. When God speaks of love, He means something much different than we mean. Let us learn of love from God Who is Love (1 Jn 4:16).

Prayer: Jesus, give me divine love, unconditional love, Your love.

Promise: "God's wisdom is vindicated by all who accept it." —Lk 7:35

Praise: In the Third Century, Catholicism flourished in Northern Africa. St. Cyprian was Bishop of Carthage and administered his office with compassion. Not free from detractors, he was martyred in 258 AD.

MOM’S CRYING - One Bread, One Body, 09/15/2020

Tuesday, September 15, 2020, Our Lady of Sorrows

1 Corinthians 12:12-14, 27-31
John 19:25-27 or Luke 2:33-35 or Luke 7:11-17
Psalm 100:1-5
View Readings

MOM'S CRYING
"Jesus said to His mother, 'Woman, there is your son.' In turn He said to the disciple, 'There is your mother.' " —John 19:26-27

When a mother cries, a special power moves in the heart of each family member. When mom cries, we feel compelled to make peace and do whatever she tells us. Mother Mary tells us to do whatever Jesus tells us (Jn 2:5). So when she cries, it results in Jesus being obeyed.
When Jesus “offered prayers and supplications with loud cries and tears to God” (Heb 5:7), His Father heard Him but most others ignored Him. Yet when mother Mary cries, it affects us differently. We are moved by her tears so as not to remain unmoved by His tears. Our hearts may be hardened, calloused, and cold. Yet when we see her crying, pierced with a sword, the thoughts of our hearts are laid bare (Lk 2:35). We see our insensitivity to the crucified Savior. When we see her crying at the foot of the cross, we notice we’re not crying when we should be (Jn 19:25).
How precious are a mother’s tears raining down on a dry, cold world! “At the cross her station keeping, stood the mournful mother weeping, close to Jesus to the last” (Stabat Mater).

Prayer: Jesus, may I be ashamed not to cry before Your cross.

Promise: "Simeon blessed them and said to Mary His mother: 'This Child is destined to be the downfall and the rise of many in Israel, a Sign that will be opposed.' " —Lk 2:34

Praise: Mary endured a grueling flight into Egypt; the fear of the loss of her twelve year old Son; an encounter with her Divine Son on the way to Calvary; and the crucifixion. Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us.
