Wednesday of the Twenty-first Week of Ordinary Time

Today’s readings invite you to a faithful, hardworking, and wholehearted discipleship that is true within and without.

Welcome. Today the Church lets Jesus and Saint Paul call you to a faith that is honest all the way through—steady in daily work, sincere in heart, and free from empty appearances. In these late days of Ordinary Time, the path of discipleship looks simple and demanding at once: to walk in the Lord’s ways, to labor faithfully, and to let your outward life match what God is doing within you. May this day open you to the Lord of peace, who meets you in ordinary duties and leads you in truth.
